request ❓ What would this be called and how would I theoretically make a patch similar to it.

Aye not too much on it being a geometry dash clip. Just close ya eyes and listen lol.

There’s multiple synths in there which part are we talking

The long note.

It might just be a massive square wave chord and a vocal pad behind it. Make a chord spread across some octaves with sqaure wave synth and add the vocal pad in a high pitch. sounds pretty close to me

What’s funny is I was literally thinking the same thing except for the vocal pad part, just hadn’t tested it yet cause I haven’t been to the studio and I was doubting myself lol.

Thanks for the response bro! Definitely trying this first chance I get.

You got this, go forth and make some crazy beats. Regardless of it being from geometry dash it is a crazy sound

Something like a massive saw synth chord stack, with a decent number of voices and detune spread to get it sounding more thick.

From there, a low pass filter to tame some of the overly bright end.

What gives it a lot of character is vibrato. So just send like a 1/16 sine/triangle wave LFO to global fine pitch to go up or down a tad bit, and then link the strength of that LFO to something like a macro or Mod Wheel to control expression as needed.

The very low bass end and the high lead are likely more single-voice or mono-compatible layered patches individually to be stronger to cut through and not be as detuned sounding.
