Pat Azzarello Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 I'm trying to figure out the "lead" sound in the chorus of We Belong by Pat Benatar (1984). It takes place for the first time around the 40 second mark of the video below. I know I've heard the lead sound multiple times (in other songs), but I just can't place it / figure out how to get started wtih it. I've gotten the plucked sound figured out pretty well. Official Video Any ideas? TIA Quote Pat http://www.patazzarello.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baldwin Funster Posted January 14 Share Posted January 14 Just sounds like a guitar patch to me. Quote FunMachine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan May Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Maybe a prophet 5 or DX7? Sounds like it to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timwat Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 I just listened to a short intro that Neal Giraldo gave to that song in a live duo show. He describes how he set up the song with "a keyboard and a Lexicon Super PrimeTime" - presumably for the multi-tap delay. But he (mistakenly?) says it was all in 1985, which suggests to me DX7 with a lot of treatments and effects is a likely suspect. To my old ears, that little "lead" sound reminds me of one of the 32 original DX7 presets we all had back in the 80's. Maybe with judicious pitch bend and ambience it gets you close? 1 Quote ..

eric Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 It sounds like a DX7 sitar patch (or similar), if I'm hearing the right thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
