"Synth" Tone from "Won't Get Fooled Again" by The Who

View File

This is certainly not the first time an emulation of the "synth" tone from "Won't Get Fooled Again" (1971) by the Who has been presented here. "Synth" is in quotes because the main sound originally came from an organ, which was merely processed through the filter of an early British synthesizer, the EMS VCS 3. This version combines ideas from both Brett Myor and "Bigmark" who released multiple versions of this emulation to the site some time ago. I haven't downloaded or tried them; hopefully this one is not just repeating what someone else has already done.

 

The zip file contains two required components: a Performance and a user effect. Store the effect where you like in your XW and edit the Performance to point to it.

 

This was created on an XW-P1. However, the only thing stopping it from working on an XW-G1 is the location of the required preset PCM tone Full Drawbar (P6-0 in the PCM Piano Category). The XW-G1 has the same tone in its presets but stored in a different location, namely P140. (PCM presets are organized differently on the two keyboards.) Hence, if you edit the Performance to use P140 it should work on the G1.

 

PS. A full description of how the emulation was crafted is provided in The XW-P1 Companion: Volume 2 - Emulation Examples.
