Crystal is awesome for free.

Another way you can make even better pads is by getting a couple of different synths (or as many as you want), putting some effects on them like filter, distortion etc, and controlling all of that with an x-y controller. Makes any two or more average sounds into a deeper and evolving sound....

pm me and i'll sort you out with some of the pads that i have laying around. just pop em into your wav sampler, add reverb, delay and oscillation and you're on your way.

By the way, what sorta processing does Burial put his pads through?

LP, Reverb ? ???? Delay ?? what else is useful? i find phasers and flangers just kill the tones i like in the original sample
