Hi. At 4:20 of the song Defiance from Galahad's Empires Never Last when the piano takes over, there's a sound in the background, providing the atmosphere of that part. I was wondering how I could achieve that sound with what instrument, which knobs should I turn or whatever you might know about it. I think I'd heard something like it before in the beginning of Shine On. I've been looking to get that sound for a while now. Thanks for the help in advance. |

The instrument is called the windchimes. Judging by how anemic and non-washy they sound in the track, to my ear it appers the band used a model with a quite low number of bars. Generally, the more bars the windchime set has, the more shimmering and rich the sound is. |

| Thank you very much. Do you think its the same thing from Shine On or am I imagining things and thats an arpeggiator kind of thing with a synth, like On The Run but more high-pitched? |

In Shine On it's a synth.

The chimes or the Crazy Diamond synth effect?

It is a great album. I feel it is Galahad’s best even after all these years. Hard to say which edition I favor more. The 2015 remaster or the original 2007 CD. I think I gotta revisit this…. Comments to come soon. ------------- Gimmie my headphones now!!! 🎧🤣 |
