Patches Of The Month - 10 essential Settings for u-he Repro-1 & Repro-5 (+ free Download)

Published 8:53 am on Monday 12th December 2022 by Beat Magazine

This synth rocks!

Who says synthesizers can‘t rock hard? Our patch „Digital Rockstar“ for Repro-1 proves it. The basis is provided by two oscillators with sawtooth waveform, whereby the first is tuned an octave higher and sounds richer in overtones thanks to the activated sync mode. The second oscillator modulates the frequency of the first. Thanks to the assignments in the Perform section, Oscillator 2‘s signal predominates at high velocities and Oscillator 1‘s at low velocities. Due to the sequence, which varies the velocity, each note sounds a little different. Finally, the distortion Jaws gives the riff a biting distortion, and the delay and reverb effects make the sound more spacious.

Arpeggio la Tangerine Dream

Repro-1 is a real weapon for fine arpeggios, perfectly suited for electronic music la Tangerine Dream, ambient and many other styles. The step sequencer plays a hypnotic sequence in our patch „Cosmic Arpeggio“, where you can use the modulation wheel to open the filter further and extend the release time of the volume envelope. This allows you to easily shape the tension of the sequence. Thanks to the Lyrebird (delay) and Drench (reverb) effects, the sound is beautifully atmospheric.

Repro-1 is a real weapon for noble arpeggios, perfectly suited for electronic music la Tangerine Dream, Ambient and many other styles. The step sequencer plays a hypnotic sequence in our patch „Cosmic Arpeggio“, where you can use the modulation wheel to open the filter further and extend the release time of the volume envelope. This allows you to easily shape the tension of the sequence. Thanks to the Lyrebird (delay) and Drench (reverb) effects, the sound is nicely atmospheric.

Spacy sequence thanks to filter FM

It‘s always amazing what crazy sounds can be created with a synthesizer with a manageable synthesis architecture! In our Repro 1 preset „Rattle & Creak“, the filter frequency is modulated at maximum resonance by oscillator B, resulting in metallic zaps and percussion sounds. The velocity value of the step sequencer influences the intensity of the filter FM. The patch sounds even more rhythmic thanks to the delay effect, the amount of which you can increase with the modulation wheel.

Pluck sound from soft to aggressive



An amazing range between soft and gentle as well as loud and aggressive is covered by the preset „Diamond In The Sun“ for Repro-5. The simple pluck sound from a sawtooth wave is given a fair amount of bite by the Distortion and Velvet (tape saturation) modules, and sounds wonderfully room-filling thanks to delay and reverb. By varying the velocity, the sound can be played very sensitively, but can also move to the fore in terms of sound. Using aftertouch you can fade in a second layer (oscillator A). The high-pitched sawtooth wave, which is modulated by the noise, sounds like a high feedback in combination with the second oscillator.

Sync A Song This preset shows that a cool sound doesn‘t have to be complex. A classic sync sound for rousing solos for synthwave & co. that also finds its space in a dense mix.

Rhythmic Noise If you want to add some drive to your beat, try this sequence of rhythmically filtered noise. Use the modulation wheel to add accents.

Boys Noize-Bass For this sound we were inspired by the fat bass from the Boys Noize hit „All I Want“. A cool beat and this bass - that‘s all you need for a fat techno track!

Bach would be proud The step sequencer of Repro-1 transforms a simple brass sound into a rousing sequence for trance & co. The modulation wheel opens the filter and lets the sound decay longer.

Electronic Punk This fat EBM bassline brings back memories of Nitzer Ebb and DAF. Not aggressive enough yet? Then just add the Jaws effect.
