Just that!
I try loking this instrumen ..but i cant find...anybody know?



I'm not talking about the sound of percussion.
I'm talking about synthesizer.
I feel like it's like a keyboard sound
with a touch of percussion as if it were a xylophone
I have not tried to find many synthesizers but it did not achieve the same sound

I believe this should really be in the forum called 'how to make that sound', which you can find the link to at the bottom of this page.
Not in the 'Software' forum. Just sayin'.
@Olymoon ?

 

what happens is that I've heard it in several songs
I think it's a specific instrument....A vsti

 

^ As are all other sounds made! lol. And it's in the wrong forum.

 

<sigh> Admin would have just moved this over if you'd asked them!
Now you've got 2 threads going on...

 

Absolutely right, thank you for pointing this. I'm moving it.

 

Ok sorry

 

My mind goes "Wrap a plastic bag twice over a shaker and 'play' the shaker like a drum".

the pluck sound?

 

Yes. I cant find the same intrumet in vsti

 

Oh! The percussion was much more interesting. And your text confused me I think. ;)

The pluck is more like a lowpass filter enveloped SawPulse with some light ducking/SC compression, boosted narrow around 250 and 380 and some low-end roll-off. Pick any subtractive synth (Sylenth1, Spire, etc).
The trick on how to get the transient to cut through can be achieved with adding additional (another) filter envelope or a very fast pitch envlope (short decay, high pitch to rest pitch in quick transition). This will add a controllable transient, if you want one that is.

Made a quick test:

Ah! Well, tonally it sounds quite Kalimba like, yet without the transients and dynamics usually associated. But also an edited piano sound can have some of those qualities.
When people programme, rather than play in with a MIDI controller, if they have all notes at the same velocity then sometimes an instrument becomes totally different. There only seems to be velocity info towards the end of your snippet of audio.
It's really going to be hard for you to guess what they used, my friend.
But easier for you to experiment with sounds to find out!

I'd say this started off as an acoustic based sample of a real instrument, but it could just as easily be totally synthesized...
Who knows?
Very short section to guess from!
Does the sound change later on in the track? Does it open up, filter-wise?
It sounds like something quite filtered, that might reveal itself later on...

 

I still think its a kinda a Plucked sound or even an Synth piano with some low pass filter and distortion.... I have used similar patch from Spire but i dont remember a patch name..... You have similar patches in Avenger , but i think you will hardly get exact sound ....

 

@Hennessey Plucked (string) and piano (hammered string) are two opposites, so you're betting on either side of the fence! haha

Which is why I'm going for a filtered Kalimba; twanged metal bars! I don't really hear the pluck transient...

 

Thank you very much to all
Just spire it's the sound I was looking for with that quality
I do not know if the sound will be the same or similar but the truth is that it works quite well
I had tried other indicators but they had a very bright sound but this one has a darker sound and that's what I was looking for
And it's also true that I do not understand a lot of synthesizers, just play the guitar and the bass. So, thank you very much everyone for helping me

Thanks a lot!! Are the best people, the best site!!

I know no its the same, but work for me.

 

Great! It's good to have a starting point. Then it's just tweaking and "making it your own" (and move on to the next) instead of just copying.
I'm glad if I was able to help out.
