notes
Pad part for "Once in a Lifetime" (Back to Life, 2009), a sidechained pad bed pop track. Built from 3 saw stacked + sine sub, 3-voice unison at 19 cents, through a LP 12 dB/oct filter around 1550 Hz with 0.2 resonance and a sine LFO on cutoff at 0.34 Hz. Treated with bright digital reverb, sidechain pump, slap delay, sitting on approximated from Toby Gad's late-2000s Los Angeles pop production on Back to Life: Access Virus/Nord Lead-style leads and 808-derived sub bass.
