Free Dune 3 Cygnus-X Superstring preset

[ccpurno]

Hi guys,

I was working for some locked-down evenings on meticulously recreating a favorite Sylenth1 patch of mine in Dune 3.
Its one of the best JP8080 patches I found in any VSTi and was one of the main reasons for still using Sylenth1
The patch always gives me inspiration when composing chord progressions.
I think I got pretty close.

The patch also works well for usage in the trance classic Superstring by Cygnus X

Mod wheel controls cutoff, amplifier attack and a bit of reso and drive.
See patch and midi file attached. Enjoy
Tip: if the sound is too "sharp", turn down the noise OSC volume in voice #4 (or turn down mod wheel of course:)


Question: I am hearing some clicking and popping sounds when playing the superstring midi file with this patch with mod wheel turned down. Anyone else has that? Ideas? (already tested with all ASIO buffer sizes... CPU only at 10%, 12 core)

You've got Dune 3 set to only 4 Voice Polyphony but the Midi is three note chords with long Release times. Try upping the polyphony from 4 to 16. That removes the pops here.

Thanks a lot, that fixed it.
Uploaded the fixed preset with with 16 note polyphony and some more tweaks to the patch (key track, better stereo image)
