Programming Sound Tips

Hi Guys,

 

Ive had an XP -80 for over a year now, which I play live with. This was my first synth and I havent really got into the sound tweaking aspects of it. Until now the band i was playing in was mainly using piano/rhodes/clav sounds so I havent needed to put much thought into the sounds. I have recently started playing in an R&B/soul/funk band where I am doing ALOT more horn/string parts. We are doing lots of Earth Wind and Fire, Kool and the gang, jamiroquai etc

 

My question is do you guys have any tips for creating these sounds. I am actually quite clueless about where to even start.

 

A friend gave me a tip about creating a good brass sound, ie. layer a brass with an octave lower and slightly detune. SOunded great in my bedroom...but sucked live!

 

Is there somewhere I can go to download xp 80 patches people have created?
