I love the chords that come in around 4.45. Any tips how to get that sound? I have a digitone and Nord lead A1
Two square oscillators, lots of noise, one oscillator playing the octave, slight detune with LFO, some PWM, long release, lush reverb.

The sound reminds me of flutes being played with a touch of too much of breath. Maybe it’s a sample after all?
TBH my first approach would be to try this with a Roland D-50 or a synth, which has samples to overlay the synth part, or has a particular strength to generate a bottle-blowing sound.
Maybe that it can be done on the digitone with two of the operators (A/C) responsible for that melodic flute-ish tone and have the other two (B1/B2) producing this “breath” sound.
There’s a patch on DN that sounds similar to this (of course I can’t think of its name right now!) which with the feedback turned up would be even closer. I will endeavour to remember to check it out later and report back.

Sweet. Let me know the name!
On the Nord LeadA1, start an initial patch, set your envelopes to taste, turn on Ensemble and a little Reverb (hall2), then step through the Digital OSC waveforms playing a few chords till something sounds right and take it from there. Layering 2 or more slots slightly modded will give it that natural ensemble effect.
