Muse Uprising Synth Tone

  • Hmm, you're talking about the Doctor Who lead tone? Modeled after an Arp Odyssey II sound used for the 80's version I think. Not sure how you'd get there with the Kemper. The core to the tone is a layered sawtooth sound (the original 60's version used test tone generators!) with a good dose of reverb. This should be interesting to see if anyone can get close.


    If I were doing it I'd use an e-bow or maybe a freqout as it simplifies the sound taking away the transient and perhaps a slide? Then slap on a little delay/verb and maybe i'd use the chromatic pitch at 12 and 24 to make it sound more synthetic, and a little ionosphere verb to make it more lush. Not sure if the shapers could help or hinder here, might bring it too much into ring-mod territory.
