Siegecow Posted October 14, 2009 Report Share Posted October 14, 2009 Theere's probably already been a thread about pads but if not its due time i'd say! Pads are my favourite part of music! Truly the backbone of a good track. For me, pads are to electronic music what rhythm guitar is to rock (fucking SWEET THAT IS). Post your favourite pads or a song with hella good pads inside of it! Discuss techniques for making pads and your favourite pad production modules Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Siegecow's signature Hide all signatures On 3/16/2011 at 8:14 PM, troon said: fuck off!

modey Posted October 15, 2009 Report Share Posted October 15, 2009 i don't have any songs to contribute but i love using the infector+funkyverb+fsmchorus in buzz for pads. and as for hardware, i use an old yamaha portasound through a vox wah pedal, behringer reverb and delay. the wah pedal gives it a nice subtle distortion that can also sound really bad if you don't know what you're doing.
