'Brass' sounds will probably be CS-80(although he also used a Prophet 10), however if you mean the string sounds usually assocaited with the Bladerunner score ( and similar period pieces, like Antarctica), they were from the Roland's VP-330 (along with choirs sounds).

The earlier work China predates the introduction of the VP-330, and does
display many CS-80 string sounds.

The VP-330 is something I would like to see as a new plug-in (how about it Arturia?), as it really has a distinctive sound (due, in no short measure, to the version of the Dimension-D chorus circuit it sported).

Title: Vangelis Horn sound from Blade Runner
Post by: GlenD on February 26, 2004, 12:31:50 am

Here is a preset I made for a guy.
It emulates a synth horn sound that Vangelis used.
The real key to making it sound right is
1. a big spring reverb
2. a volume pedal to vary the attack time.
Hope you enjoy it.

God Bless,

Glen

Maybe Arturia could ask Vangelis to make some
presets for CS80V....

I should have mentioned that the flute preset from channel 1 is no.4 and the bass preset on channel 2 is no. 5

Also, when making these brass sounds with presets buttons 3 and 3 (ch1 & ch2), set ch1 on 16feet and ch2 on 8feet or vice versa for a more spaceous sounds.

He used the Cs80's ability to change the speed of the SubOsc on many many sounds to get that breathy effect. The brass is no different but to realise the effect of sending the size of the sound to the massive portions (he normally eminates) requires a judgious use of reverb to give that hissing tale effect also. Also, he mixed in subtle amounts of white noise in to much of his sounds. If you listen closely there is a lot odf white noise in China where his ability to compose natural electronic sounds are it's best. On the CS80V, I have managed to produce the most beautiful flute sound using the Ring Mod at slow speed, Aftertouch moding the Filters, VCA mod, VCF mod, Sub-osc speed.

None of big vangs sounds were static each had a depth behind them that requires a degree of control of your fingers (and possibly feet). He liked the CS80 for it's ability to get in to and manipulate the sound whilst playing with every limb of his body.

I will have to get my efforts posted here.

Although I agree it would be nice to have a VP-330 VSTi, I take issue with the notion that most of the sounds in "Blade Runner" are VP-330. Perhaps if you mean most of the strings/pads, that is probably true, but ALL the distinctive leads were CS-80. When you think of the standout themes, like the opening theme or "Blade Runner blues", it is CS-80 you're hearing. I refer you to this excellent article by dedicated Blade Runner fantatics and researchers: http://media.bladezone.com/contents/film/production/soundtrack/vangelis/.

Armando.

Actually there are six instruments played into the BR soundtrack:

CS80 ( Brass , strings, leads, efx )

VP330 ( strings, choir )

GS-1 (mallet, FM el.piano )

Prophet 10 ( sequenced bass )

Jupiter4 (arpeggios)

Emulator ( sampled percussions )

Fender Rhodes MkII

PS: I would badly like a VP330 emulation which , apart from the chorus shouldn't be too difficult to emulate but, sadly , I should kill all the managers at Roland before Arturia could obtains the rights on the brand and names.....
BTW, arturia, why not name it otherwise????

Armando,

yes, I mean the string and choir sounds are mainly VP330. Omissis is correct in his listing of what synths were responsible for which sounds.

Please can somebody mail me vangelis presetfiles?
I'm not able to download any attachement...
I would appreciate it very very much!
I'm interested in hornsound, leadsound, fx, stringsound and that typical string with that vibrato release.

It's as you see and as has always been, a useless place; prayed more than one time to make this place useful by allowing the file upload but, you know, sometimes it seems that the users' voice doesn't step across the Alps, sometimes I think that Arturians behave like   Kraftwerk :mrgreen:...........

Let's re-invigorate this thread! I have about 5 or 6 Vangelis presets that I created on the CS-80V. Most are pretty good....one or two need a teeny tweak.
Who's interested in sharing/swapping presets??

Cheers,

James (fellow CS-80V user and massive Vangelis fan!)

Have somebody Presets for the typical Blade Runner sound? I try to make my own, but it doesnt work cause i am to new for this Soundprogramming... I like the CS-80 Sound in the beginning of Blade Runner Movie so much, please help me  :)

nakedsoul, if you are still looking for the BR Intro presets, I've made a couple. I didn't try to match it exactly but they are close enough to get you started.

Unfortunately I am unable to upload the presets here for some reason (the option to add attachments doesn't appear when I expand the additional options). I could email them to you or maybe there is someplace else I can upload them.

The "CS-80V Medley" demo song sure sounds like VP-330 strings and vocal pads. They claim it was all on the CS-80V, except for some bass and percussion sounds. I'd sure like to find those strings and vocal patches on my CS-80V!

Now that it looks like this forum is getting an overhaul in September of 2009, any chance on someone trying to upload some Vangelis like patches again?

The other option is to create a public folder somewhere, and link to it.

I agree with you. I think Arturia is not doing enough for people who want to have good sounds.  >:(

Most of the sound are crap, at least in my opinion.

And it's a pity the forums are not used very often by people with the same intrest or that there is a reaction from arturia itself. To bad.

Maybe they can take an example of Spectrasonics and the Northernsounds Forum. Eric is reading the forum almost every day and gives comment or helps people. That a good way Arturia. You should do that as well.

I agree Arturia is having nice products but terrible sound support.

Sounds from the modules are bad. Forum is most op the time dead. No tutorials. No feedback from people from Arturia.

It would be a very good thing if the do it like spectrasonics.

But I think Arturia will not every become a nice and customer friendly company.
