Sound Combinations That Shouldn’t Work - musicalmemoriesuk - 09-23-2021
Today we are spoiled for choice with 1000s of sounds we have at our fingertips on our Arranger Keyboards. Many sounds will never get touched in the lifetime of owning a particular model. People complain about this and that sound.
But if you experiment by combining sounds that you think shouldn’t work together. So here’s a little challenge for you all.
Pick two sounds on your Arrangers one that you’ve used and one that you’ve never used. Reply with a comment and say if the combination worked or not.

I can sign that your proposal will really be able to give good and surprising results.
For example, try combining a synth sound with a distortion guitar, or a bass sound with an organ.
I do this every day, and constantly find new wonderful combinations.
Another thing that is crucial is the volume ratio between the two.

In this way, for example, WERSI has also created unique and legendary sounds with sound combis. Sometimes the addition is a bell-like sound or just a hiss or click. Everything finely nuanced together to create one sound. This also is how the typical James Last or ABBA sounds were created. Following the suggestion from musicalmemoriesuk is really fun ... ok in the beginning many are for the bin, but practice makes perfect.
