About this sample

This lead features a thick supersaw texture built from seven detuned sawtooth voices per note, spread ±1.5% in frequency for rich phase beating. Each voice is panned across the stereo field for wide imaging, with a subtle 5Hz vibrato adding an organic feel. A 2-pole low-pass filter sweeps from 5000Hz down to 1200Hz with a plucky envelope shaping rhythmic attack and decay. The 4-bar melody plays at 138 BPM with rolling sixteenth notes in A minor, enhanced by a dotted eighth ping-pong delay for rhythmic space and warmth via saturation and final limiting at -3dB.

This lead suits trance and progressive electronic genres at tempos around 138 BPM, fitting well as a main melodic element. It layers effectively with pads or basses, though its wide stereo field and rhythmic filter envelope require careful balancing to avoid masking vocals or midrange instruments. Use subtle compression and EQ to maintain clarity and prevent low-end buildup when mixing.
