RE: Trance Keys
agreed.. it aint just easy... that 'theatre-organ' type sound can be coaxed from alot of synths tho... the cheapest synth that has it as a preset, (although it'll need some eq and mangling with a reverb & maybe some fast panned delay/chorus to get it to sound 'finer') would be an old DX yamaha synth... they all have a theatre-organ preset... lots of fast lfo pitch modulation is the key so fast that the sound 'warbles' almost imperceptibly... plus maybe a tad of fast lfo mod on the filter to (but not to deep) - and you can try banging UP the MOD wheel to full too... basically it's an impression of an old wurlitzer organ type keyboard
anyways... on the original underground street-level tracks that started to use that sound years ago before it got commecialised that is the synth that gets it instantly - dx100, dx7, dx9/27 tx81z etc... if the server wasn't falling over i'd post an example in audio format... (you ARE talking about THAT organ sound like on say Sunscream's Gatecrasher track, exodus??)
