Name this '90s pad synth


Recommended Posts

I've been trying to identify this string/pad synth I've heard in a couple tracks, but can't figure out exactly what synth it is. Help?

 

From the intro of "Cups" by Underworld:

 

And in the background of "Fly over Bombay" by A Reminiscent Drive:

 

FWIW, I suspect the same synth (with different presets) is used on ARD's "New Jerusalem":

 

 

Thanks! This is driving me nuts.

Could be lots of things, I reckon. A ROMpler with a string wave. Try to find a preset called "5th Pad" or just set 2 oscillators 7 semitones apart, or just manually play fifths on a string preset.

I'm not going to lie, I'm jealous of your avatar, i owe co-co. I suggest you pay co-co with a good avatar, whoever he or she is.

 

The 90s padsynths are all named 'jealousy' after being 'jealous' of the inability of computers to make analog pads.
