FEVER DREAM / Behringer Pro-1 & Neutron Ambient Synth Jam / Cinematic Soundtrack Concept
PATCH DETAILS BELOW. As always I'm experimenting to see what type of content you all resonate with and this is a bit of a shot in the dark. I filmed this improv last week which was initially to just log the idea and patches made on the Behringer clones but wanted to throw it here to see if people like this kind of content (let me know below if you do). This spawned the idea of SCENE, a series where I mess around with synths to create large ambient patches and soundscapes with the hopes of inspiring cinematic scenes. Future videos might have some visuals in them if I explore this concept more and I'd also collaborate with visual effects artists to create something beautiful..
This exploration is more of an ambient synth vibe created at a time when I've been studying Hans Zimmer's Dune soundtrack.

PATCH DETAILS
▶ Behringer Neutron:
This patch idea really spawned this whole thing. My Assign is set to my mod wheel which I am controlling with a foot pedal (which I learned how to do thanks to my Oversynth overlay.
- Assign OUT to Sample & Hold Clock IN.
- S&H OUT to Attenuator 1 IN
- Att 1 OUT to Osc 1+2 IN
What I thought this would create is as my mod wheel goes up my S&H clock speed would increases but instead it functions as more of a gate so everytime I turn my mod wheel (pedal) up it generates a new random CV from the S&H generator which sends that to my Osc pitch, generating a random note. So every time you see my right foot bounce, it's me sending a random CV to my Oscillators. Now obviously a random note is useless when trying to play in key so the audio signal is then run into Ableton where it hits Waves Tune Real Time to pitch correct it into key. Combined with some glide time this leads to some interesting sounds coming out of the Neutron which almost make it sound like some distorted arabic stringed instrument than a synthesizer. It's also hit with some Baby Audio Crystalline reverb.
▶ Behringer Pro-1:
This is a very simple patch with Osc 1 as sawtooth and Osc 2 as triangle with a bit of noise and an LFO sweep on the filter. I'm using this as a drone so the click sound you hear at the beginning is the sound of me activating the drone. The drone notes are controlled using my Launchpad Pro MK3 which you can see me tapping every now and then. It too is hit with some Baby Audio Crystalline reverb which gives it some huge space and almost a brass-type sound.
▶ Ibanez Guitar:
All audio from this comes from United Plugin's Electrum with a simple patch I made which uses a pretty clean signal but runs it through some modulation, delay, and reverb.
▶ Room Mic:
I've been keeping active room mics on as their own tracks to record me hitting switches and picking up the ambient guitar sound. This is mixed almost entirely wet with huge delay and some Crystalline. This just adds more ambience and also picks up some of the natural picking sound from the guitar which blends in nicely with the processed guitar signal.
Let me know below if you enjoy this Vignette and if so I will produce more!
