Burial atmospheric pad?

[Icetickle]

Can anyone give me some advices on making these dark atmospheric pads?
Every time I want to make a pad in massive I just can't avoid making these super complicated happy shit..

At least you can make pads, all my pads sound the same; layered saws at different octaves/tones with some phase,panning, and loads of cuttoff on a LP filter and resonance.

I'd say that these pads are layered to have a lowend, mid, and high. I think theres some orchestral strings/woodwind and I hear some kind of choir in there too.

But as far as pads go, plenty of slow moving lfos/envelopes are your friend. Also the frozen WT in massive is pretty damn great for pads.

I don't really have a problem with the movement I just don't know what oscillators should I use (since the trial and error didn't work). A lot of times I was just using melofant and melomantic and sheet like dat. Or should be a squarewave different octaves layered?

Try layering whatever pad you make with a choir playing the same notes

Get a little sample of something (like a second of some random noise)
set it so it loops when you hold a key
put a reverb on it
turn dry alllll the way down
turn wet allll the way up
add some phasorz, flangorz, other shit onto it (to taste)
Viola, pad sounds.

Kinda hit and miss with the initial sample, but once the effects chain is set up, it takes seconds to swap around source samples.

burial is all samples.
run samples of streets and shit through a million reverbs and then resample it
