Introduction

DeepFlight is a Reason ReFill, based on 1.5 GB sound samples of Roland D-50 synth from the late 80’s.
Yes… ReFill again! Many people think that ReFill is just another storage format for samples. We at Reasonbanks think different. We look at ReFills as a ROM card in your PCM synth. Yes, it can store samples, but the secret is in the patches…
Our ReFills represent a new approach to NN-XT and Combinator programming, adding a flexible “new instrument device” to your REASON environment.
About D-50: Roland D-50 was released in 1987. This synth was Roland’s response to the extremely popular Yamaha DX-7, however it sounded totally differently and was much easier to use. Although it’s a digital synth, it still used real analogue filters, which disappeared in the following D series. That’s why D-50 sounds so fat and beautiful. A real all-time favourite!

Abbreviations – special tags
We introduced some special tags in the file names – we used them in VIROLOGY ReFill first. These special tags can be useful if you’re looking for a certain type of patches.
You should use these tags in the Reason browser for searching the desired patch type. Each tag starts with a “[” character and it is after the name of the patch.

[Syn – tempo synced
[Vsp – velocity split
[Alt – alternate triggering
[Run – COMBINATOR RUN
[Rt – trigger by release
[Mon – monophonic
[Ksp – keysplits

Combinator templates

We introduce 8 Combinator devices; these templates have specifically been developed for Deepflight ReFill. The sample source of Deepflight sounds very rich – that’s why we didn’t use chorusing effects. In general, chorusing effects thicken and add stereo width to the sound. But for Deepflight’s sounds, which are fat and thick by themselves it would have caused unwanted and unpleasant phasing effects… sometimes less is more. We tried to keep the original sound clarity, and used only dinamic, time based and filter effects in these Combinator templates. Yes. And a little distortion sometimes.
The Combi templates can be found in the Combinator->Templates folder. Use them as a starting point to create new patches starting from scratch – as we did. All other patches in the ReFill are based on these templates.

DF Ambient Dream Machine [AmbDream]
It’s a relatively simple device, with 2 instrument slots. As for effects, it contains a stereo delay and a reverb unit only. The effects can be connected in parallel (version P), or in serial (version S) mode.
You can load 2 NN-XT instruments for creating wide, fat sounds.
There are 2 independent LFOs (from Malström): Mod-A is responsible for volume crossfade morphing, Mod-B is for autopan. You can set the LFO speed on the Malström’s panel. Both LFOs are running in free mode.

Button1 (CC#75) – Auto Vol. Morph : Enables or disables Mod-A LFO.
Button2 (CC#76) – Auto Pan : Enables or disables Mod-B LFO.
Button3 (CC#77) – Hold: it sets the NN-XTs’ AMP Env Release to maximum. The sounds won’t stop after you released the keys; it can be useful in live situation.
Button4 (CC#78) – Custom EQ: you can enable MClass Equaliser, setting the correct EQ may help you to fit both instruments in your mix.
Rotary1 (CC#71) – Instr. Balance: controls the Volume balance between the two instruments.
Rotary2 (CC#72) – Delay: controls the stereo delay Wet amount.
Rotary3 (CC#73) – Reverb: controls the reverb Wet amount.
Rotary4 (CC#74) – Main Volume: sets the master volume (independent of Rotary1).

DF Bandsweep Machine [Bandswp]

This is a very complex patch using vocoder to create wide, continuously sweeping textures. The bands of the vocoder are controlled by 4 independent LFO’s. Like in the previous Ambient Dream Machine patch, you can find 2 instrument slots. By default, the LFOs are set to sine. But feel free to modify them, you can create vivid morphing textures, wide arps using different waveforms and speed rates.
There are 2 versions in the template folder. V1 is the simple version, it uses one vocoder. V2 is much more complicated, each band has its own vocoder, and you can set the volume of each band and panorama in the ‘bands mixer’.

Button1 (CC#75) – Auto Pan: enables or disables crossfade panning between SLoT1 and SLOT2 instruments. You can modify the LFO settings in the Malström device named ‘Crossfade LFO’.
Button2 (CC#76) – 4 / 8 Bands mode: Enabling it (8 bands mode), you get more narrow bands.
Button3 (CC#77) – Release Hold: it sets the NN-XTs’ AMP Env Release to maximum. The sounds won’t stop after you release the keys.
Button4 (CC#78) – Master EQ: enables MClass Equaliser.
Rotary1 (CC#71) – Balance 1-2: controls the Volume balance between the two instruments.
Rotary2 (CC#72) – Bands Dry / Wet: controls the Volume balance between the original instruments and the filtered sounds.
Rotary3 (CC#73) – Reverb: controls the reverb send amount.
Rotary4 (CC#74) – Master Vol.: controls the master volume.

DF Bass Stomp [Bstomp]

This machine can create strong compressed bass sounds. In turn: after the NN- XT there is a scream4 with tape saturation and amp sim, MClass compressor, MClass equalizer and maximizer, all in series-connection in the effect chain.

Button1 (CC#75) – Damage On: enable or disable tape saturation.
Button2 (CC#76) – Bass Boost: add extra bass boost (it enables the screamer’s internal EQ). Button3 (CC#77) – Compressor On: enable or disable the compressor.
Button4 (CC#78) – Master Limiter: enable or disable the Maximizer.
Rotary1 (CC#71) – Drive: it controls the tape saturation (damage) amount. Please note that it also controls the master volume of scream4 (gain reduction).
Rotary2 (CC#72) – Cab type (1-4): sets the scream4’s speaker cab type. Turning the rotary hard right will switch off the cab simulation.
Rotary3 (CC#73) – Compression: it controls the compressing amount, modifying both treshold and ratio.
Rotary4 (CC#74) – Master Gain: sets the loudness. It controls both the output gain of the compressorAND the input gain of the maximizer.

DF Keysplits [KSP]

When you play live, sometimes you need to split your keyboard: for example your left hand plays bass while your right hand plays chord accompaniment or solo. The key mapping panel of Combinator offers a very easy way to do it. By default we set the splitting point to C3, but you can modify it if needed. This Combi uses 2 NN-XT devices: use the first one for the lower and the second one for the upper part. Just load and play live!
Button1 & Rotary1: it may be varying, depending on the actual loaded effect (by default: screamer), but in general they control the effect of lower part.
Button2 & Rotary2: they control the effect of upper part (reverb by default).
Button3 (CC#77) – Custom EQ: you can enable MClass Equaliser to fit both instruments in your mix.
Button4 (CC#78) – Main limiter: enabling the limiter may smooth the 2 parts and help you to prevent unintentional clips and pops at high volume settings.
Rotary3 (CC#73) – Balance LO/UP: controls the Volume balance between lower/upper part.
Rotary4 (CC#74) – Main Volume: sets the master volume for both instruments.

DF Lead Stomp [LdStomp]
It’s a multi-effect chain, designed for leads, inspired by Line6 Pod. The effect order follows the rules of the traditional guitar effect. Following the sound source (NN-XT) it starts with ECF-42 Envelope controlled filter, which also has a free running sine LFO (from Malström) as filter modulator. After that, in turn: a distortion unit (scream4), a stereo delay (RV7000), a Cab/Amp simulator (scream4), MClass compressor, MClass equalizer and a reverb unit (RV7000) at the end. As you can see, this setup offers hundreds of tweakeable parameters, but only the most important controls are placed on the Combi panels… so if you need more controls, click “Show Devices” and feel free to tweak those knobs!

Button1 (CC#75) – Sine Sweep LFO: it enables the ECF-42 filter modulation by a slow sine LFO.
Button2 (CC#76) – Distr. Stomp: Enables or disables the distortion unit.
Button3 (CC#77) – Cab/Amp: Enables or disables the Cab/Amp simulation unit.
Button4 (CC#78) – Delay: Enables or disables the stereo delay.
Rotary1 (CC#71) – ECF Cutoff: controls the ECF-42 cutoff frequency. Please note that this filter works in monophonic mode.
Rotary2 (CC#72) – Drive: if distortion is enabled (Button2), it controls the damage amount.
Rotary3 (CC#73) – Body Resonance: when Cab/Amp is enabled (Button3), it controls the body resonance. High settings can be used to create autowah ?? effect.
Rotary4 (CC#74) – Reverb Vol.: controls the reverb wet amount.

DF MonoPoly S1 [MPSwp1]

The name “Monopoly” comes from the main feature of this device: polyphonic instrument with monophonic filter. In the 80s many analogue synths used this method (like Korg Poly800), probably because it needs only one filter – a very economical device! 😉 This template is a filter sweeping machine. It can be used to create sweeping pads (slow sine LFO), auto
Bass/Arp (Saw LFO with tempo sync), and many other interesting instruments.
Button1 (CC#75) – Free Run: The filter LFO can work in 2 ways. If free run is active, the filter modulation runs continuously, otherwise the filter LFO is retriggered when you play a new key.
Button2 (CC#76) – Tempo Sync: Clicking this button (so that its light switches on) synchronizes the LFO to the song tempo, in one of 16 possible time divisions.
Button3 (CC#77) – Filter type: you can switch between 24 dB lowpass and 12 dB bandpass filters.
Button4 (CC#78) – Custom EQ: you can enable MClass Equaliser. This useful device may help you to fit the instrument in your mix – feel free to modify the actual settings to achieve the optimal result. I recommend you to compare the result in A-B test (on-off).
Rotary1 (CC#71) – LFO type: you can set the LFO waveform: sine, triangle, saw or square.
Rotary2 (CC#72) – LFO speed: controls the frequency of the filter LFO. For a faster modulation rate, turn the knob to the right.
Rotary3 (CC#73) – filter cutoff: set the cutoff frequency of the monophonic filter (ECF-42). A useful ?? tip: if you want to modify the filter modulation settings, open combinator, flip the rack and modify the ‘freq CV’ knob (first on the left) in the ECF-42 envelope controlled filter.
Rotary4 (CC#74) – Main Volume: it sets Main Volume of the NN-XT (CC#13). The patch also contains a medium hall reverb; set bypass if you don’t need it.

DF MonoPoly S2 [MPSwp2]

Another sweeping machine, but for different purpose. This template can be used to create vivid bass, polysynth and lead patches.
The monophonic filter has 2 modulators: a free running sine LFO and envelope of ECF-42. This envelope is triggered by note on, while the LFO works continously and independently.
Button1 (CC#75) – Tempo Sync: it synchronizes the LFO to the song tempo.
Button2 (CC#76) – Filter Env Amount: you can switch between 2 different env amount settings, they determine the influence of the filter envelope. By default we set it to 0 (no effect) and to 64. You can modify these values in the Modulator routing panel (Env Filter device).
Button3 (CC#77) – Pan delay: there is a RV7000 reverb modul with panning delay preset at the end of the signal chain; you can enable or disable it
Button4 (CC#78) – Custom EQ: you can enable MClass Equaliser, it can help you to fit the instrument in your mix.
Rotary1 (CC#71) – LFO speed: controls the sine LFO’s rate. It works in free running mode.
Rotary2 (CC#72) – filter cutoff: controls the ECF-42 cutoff frequency.
Rotary3 (CC#73) – filter resonance: controls the ECF-42 filter resonance.
Rotary4 (CC#74) – filter ENV Decay: controls the ECF-42 envelope decay – longer decay means longer sweep. By default, it’s linked with envelope release, but you may unlink them.Feel free to try different release settings to get interesting (and sometimes unwanted) result!
Note: high resonance settings may cause extremly loud sounds sometimes, to protect your ears and the equipments we placed an MClass limiter after the ECF-42.

DF Multilayer Pads [MPads]

However the NN-XT also allows you to use multiple layers, the programming and handling layers in NN-XT are a bit difficult. This Combinator patch gives you an easy way to create fat ensemble pads and unisono stuff with just few clicks! You can load up to 4 NN-XT instruments, the volume of these partials can independently be controlled by the rotary encoders.

Button1 (CC#75) – Wide Pan 1-2: by default, all partials sound from centre. This knob set the panorama of Partial1 left and Partial2 to right position, giving you a wide stereo effects.
Button2 (CC#76) – Wide Pan 1-2: same as above, but for Partial3 & 4.
Button3 (CC#77) – Reverb: you can enable or disable the RV7000 reverb modul.
Button4 (CC#78) – Custom EQ: you can enable MClass Equaliser, it can help you to fit the whole multi-instrument in your mix.
Rotary1-4 – Part volumes: you can set the volume of the 4 partials independently.
