NordLead3 Unison

Tim Kleinert

Finally, the NordLead3 unisono function as a building block.

Just like the original, it creates 4 detuned replicas of the ingoing signal and spreads those over the stereo field, two hard-panned right and two hard-panned left.

I's actually just a clever-dick crossbreed between a multitap chorus and a pitch shifter. I have no sure info about how the original works, but I'm pretty convinced it works this way. At least, it sounds exactly like it. (I tried several other more fancy approaches, and they fell short.)

And here, a deluxe version: twice the madness!

Eight detuned replicas spreaded over the stereo field. Sounds far denser. Killer for pads!

Yes, nice indeed, Tim, thanks for sharing.

I've had some fun time combining this unisonthing with the ridiculohyper you posted. Making it more ridiculo, but still, on certain sounds, when there is just a little bit ridiculo getting through, i like it.

Placing this unison buildingblock in the fx area sounds a lot better than the inbuild chorus module Exclamation

I think this patch is meant as an Idea to show the routing, and not as final, so my comment is not critically and especially for those who are not on the advanced side (as i are )

My comment:
I sugest to set the delay values much smaller and the smaller they are the smaller should be the modulation amount of the delays.

Set the Delaytimes for a first try between 0.39ms and 1.43ms . (more -less )
The effect becames more subtile and much more musical.

I use in every Synthpatch a 2tap- or 4tap-delay and 1 is allways set to 0.01 !
In the deluxversion i set detune between 5 and 15, or 25-40 for an audible effect.
