Does anyone have an orc file for Reese patch? I suppose it's a relatively easy one to make, but I just want to get back into Csound. I haven't really messed with it since I took digital composition in college, and it seems like there are a lot os synths that just add a graphical face to Csound and I want to be hardcore!

Sorry to post a totally un-helpfull reply, but I looked on Google for "Reese patch" and didn't come up with much, and I'm curious. What is a Reese patch? -

It's a bass patch commonly used for Drum & Bass. Saw waves slightly detuned with a couple filters... It might not be a very common term. I've only ever heard it from a D&B producer. It might be in reference to someone named Reese who uses a particular OSC & filter combo for most of his stuff...my bad...sorry.

Ha! Like four months later I happened to run into this term and found out that it is what is also called a 'hoover.' Now I know what's being talked about here. Not that answers the question either.

How can they use another name for a hoover? A hoover is a hoover.
Maybe it's a specific kind of hoover. There is a little bit of a difference between the hoovers they use in D&B and the hoovers they used to use in techno I suppose.
BTW, hasn't the hoover fell out of favor lately? And by lately I mean the past 10 years. -

You can look for anything that does a sync'd sawtooth to another sawtooth, then throw a little bit of filter on there. Voila, Hoover. I could do one in Max/MSP in seconds, doing it in CSound might be a little bit more hairy (never figured out how to do osc sync in Csound).
As for what a "Reese" patch would be... do you mean Reece as in Alex Reece?
He was known for a certain simple bass sound, really solid. Basic sawtooth again, with no sync, just saw + filter with some resonant filter (maybe turned up about halfway to self osc) with fairly quick envelopes and some filter modulation. Check his "acid lab" release for the sound I think you're talking about (the bass sound, not the stabby stuff playing the higher notes).
And finally, on the death of Hoover... starting to see it used as a staple sound more and more (unfortunately) as genres like HardNRG/DarkNRG and ElectroClash revisit those early techno sounds.
