"I demoed a full album, and as I was moving to the West Coast I thought I'd get to finishing it quick. Arriving in California with a grip of demos he'd written in New York, he realized after a few months of setting up his new shop, complete with a few new toys, that the gap was giving him perspective (insert tooth joke here). Moving from his isolated Queens home to a house in Los Angeles helped give the somewhat transient Canada-native a broader base, and a few more months on his calendar to create did their job as well. Though used to and pretty happy with that annual grind, it was a little space, in time, location, and method, that inspired DeMarco while making the record. To stay gold, turns out all he needed was some new tricks.

Lastly, turn on the Chorus I effect to complete the sound. To set the vibrato speed, set the rate fader in the LFO section to 1.24 Hz with a delay time of 0.23. This controls the amount of pitch modulation, and finding the sweet spot is the key for many patches. Set the decay fader to 7, sustain to 0 and release to 5.5.įor the pitch vibrato, set the oscillator’s LFO fader (at the top-left) to 1.3. To create some movement in the patch, set the filter’s env fader (envelope modulation) to 2 and set the VCA switch to env, which will set both the filter and the volume to be controlled by the ADSR envelope. Set the main VCF filter’s frequency fader to 6 and resonance to 4, which will filter out some of the high-end, but still leave plenty of high-mids. Raise the HPF filter to halfway, which will filter out some of the bass-end frequencies.

The patch can be created in TAL-U-NO-LX, a fantastic and inexpensive software emulation of the similar Juno synths.įrom the default setting, turn on the square wave DCO and reduce the sub-oscillator volume to halfway. The Chamber of Reflection lead synth was recorded on Mac’s Roland JX-3P, a vintage synth with a highly recognisable Roland chorus sound. The melody and chords are interpolated from the Shigeo Sekito song The Word II, reworked with vintage synths.

Chamber of Reflection stands out on Salad Days as the only song that replaces Mac’s signature chorused guitar with swirling layers of synthesizers.
