anyone got that G-Funk Lead Dr. Dre used back n da days ??

Very easy to program in almost any synth. Just use a saw oscillator or two (slightly detuned). A small attack and release on the amplifier envelope. Have the sustain be 100% for both the amplifier and filter envelopes. Set the resonance low and the filter cutoff at about 75% with the envelope amount for filter set to 0. Set mono & legato mode and put glide on. You can also set an lfo to modulate the pitch at about 6Hz, triggered by the modulation wheel.
It's really not as complex as that may sound if you've never programmed a synth before. By setting the sustain on the two envelopes to 100%, you don't want the volume or timbre to change over time. The other key things are the Sawtooth waveform for the oscillator and the glide (makes the pitch gradually change from one note to another).

Yo... I Think you can get that refill too at www.reasonfreaks.com but you must also register..and its free!!!
are you talking about that little popping sound at the beginning of the note when you press a key.?I had that problem a while ago too...try to slightly adjust some of the settings you made on your filters I adusted the cutoff on something I was doing and that got rid of it...why that would affect the beginning of the note I don't know...maybe I'm wrong...coulda been my resonance knob , it's right next to my cutoff. save it as is for now ...then start messin around wit the settings again.
Not sure what you mean by the 'beat'. Maybe you're refering to a clicking sound when the note first starts? If that's the case, increase the attack time on the amplitude envelope.
To get a softer sounding lead, either change the oscillators to sine waveform or (if your synth doesn't have sine waveform) triangle or square wave and set the filter cutoff at about 15-20%. Everything else should stay the same.
These parameters are not exact by any means, but they should get you into the ball park and should sound familiar. From there, you can experiment with changing some of the parameters to get exactly what you want.
Welcome to basic synth programming... Something every musician and producer should be well versed in...
