The fast vibrato is the easiest part to achieve with this sound. Simply assign pitch control to a ribbon controller (+/- 2 semitones), and while playing any note "trill" rapidly on the +2 semitones range of the ribbon - I use my left index finger to do this, but I guess it's just a matter of what you are used to. This will exactly produce the appropriate result plus it is manual, i.e. easily adjustable to live tempo.

well. In the next issue I will going more deep into programming. Btw, i've got the same vibrato with a fasto LFO feeding PWM.

Doh...anyway, Jens dont have any ribbon controller to make the vibrato on his DX7 controller...i guess that to program the same thing on a wheel or a stick is a "little" more difficult. Dont you think?

Speaking about vibrato and wheel, here a little extra...

perhaps it was an error of mine calling it a vibrato... it's not a classical pitch up and down but is more like an harmonic vibration... listen to Jens jam over Alberto Rizzo Schettino Horizon.. is the sound he used at the end of song.
