Found this one in one of my backup files as it was part of a request here:

Still needs some improvement....

Another great patch, never cared for the song much
But your patch makes me want to play it!!

You think there is a way to get the popcorn effect for Hungry like a wolf outta the gr55?

I'm so green with how to use these filters and effects with the synth sounds. I really need a 80s synth 101 Tutorial. Being a child of the 80s I know all these sounds but never had access to them until my gr55 really.
Setup:
Homemade EVH Frankenstrat with built in GK3
GR55
Rocktron Talkbox
TC Helicon Voicetone C1
Tech 21 Power Engine 60

THX for the compliments greekjgg.

For Duran Duran and Hungry like a wolf and the Popcorn effect I have to make my ideas. But should also be possible....
Found this in Wiki:



A 23-second sample from "Hungry Like the Wolf", featuring Rhodes' girlfriend's laugh at the beginning, Le Bon's vocals with a backing track that mixes a Roland TR-808 drum machine with a sequencer, and a Roland Jupiter-8 keyboard, and the repeating of the word "do" at the end.

Personally I feel if you completely miss out the popcorn sound it improves the song enormously.
Its a great rock song if you play it straight with guitar/Bass/Drums/Keyboard (if you have one).

Just my opinion of course... ;D
