Hey, I'm doing a video game and could do with a soundtrack, so I'm looking for an, old fashioned ballroom kind of music, but played with through a tesla coil kind of thing.
It's a ww1/victorian (not steam-punk! True Victorian! With a few other historical thingies) era stealth based horror game, and I feel that this kind of music would fit the style.
Well, I mean a Tesla interference, I know it's not particularly ww1 era, I'm basically taking bits of tech from all over history and mashing it together.
So like this:

When you say ballroom, do you mean something like this?

I've got a few software synths that emulate that tesla coil type sound, so if you can let me know the type of mood you're going for, I can give this a whirl.
@zagi2: I don't use plugins. I just got Reason 8, and both thor and maelstrom seem to have patches that sound similar to this. If I remember correctly, there was a subtractor patch called "air pizz", which I think I can tweak to sound like this.
Even in thor (or any other synth) - and I am purely speculating here, gotta give it a go first - you could try using a noise oscillator and mess with a comb filter or ladder filter and the amp envelope; tweaking the frequencies should get you pretty close to this. It's only a matter of fine tuning it to get it to sound like the tesla coil.

It doesn't matter, we should do that which is right. I will try to make something. And I will not sue you for using it.

Ok. I am Cubase user. There are some pretty cool synths for that effect, but I was thinking about some plug in.
cheers

I'm out of my depth...

@zagi2: For cubase, did you try fab filter twin 2? It's one of THE BEST synths I've come across. I'd, in fact, put Reason's Thor second to it.

No what?
