    Default Recreating stab sound

    Hi guys

    My question is simple, the answer might not be..
    I was just listening to a danish rap/pop song and i wanted to recreate the stab sound.
    The sound is only used in a short part, beginning at 1:38 in this vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5xO0lxh29Eo

    Any toughts on how to do this?
    I've got ableton suite and reason to work with.

    Thanks

    Rather than trying to figure out how to build, I think you should start with an organ sound and filter it (high or bandpass I suggest first). Might need some phaser, flange, chorus or similar, but you won't be too far away after a few minutes I think.

    It has a bit more of a digital feel than an organ sound.. a BP filter might work.. still can't get the repeating element in the sound right tho

    yeah its defo a synth sound, very quick attack and release to make it short and stabby, and with a high speed oscillation through it to give it that slightly vibrato sound.
