    Default Sail - Awolnation help

    Hello peoples!

    I am new to djtechtools and almost as new to producing, creating and performing electronic music. I was wondering if someone could perhaps assist in helping figure out how to reproduce the effect in Awolnations song sail. Now as I'm a noob I haven't a clue how to explain other than through deduction, it's not the distorted bass synth or plucked strings, it's the effect that uses the vibrato and strong pizzicato sound. I have the Korg legacy packae so I know it's doable with one of those synth models, I've been using a sequencer on the Korg M1 model and it's sounded a little bit like it but it's nowhere near enough like it for me to happilly use the effect live. Any help would be hugely appreciated.

    Thank you for reading.

    Mind giving a rundown on what you got so far on your patch so I can help elaborate on it? You made me analyze the song and I think you are talking about the lead that goes on top of the pluck strings. I too am curious on how its made. I used a little fm and just added vibrato with some pitch envelope to a waveform. It sounds a little like it, but my patch is also missing something.
