pokemon snap unknown string instrument
hello everyone,
i was wondering, what kind of synthesized string instrument is playing in professor oak’s lab and some other songs of pokemon snap. in my opinion, it sounds like a synthesized shamisen but then edited with some extra electric sounds or something.. but i’m not sure.. i really want to know it from someone who has more knowledge of synthesized instruments then me. here is the link of the song: https://youtu.be/9AV99s5rmCM please be kind to me thanks in advance |

Could be a shamisen patch, sure. Could also be banjo. Could even just be a regular acoustic guitar. Those 90s era patches often sounded the same. In this sample that opening ostinato is also octave doubled, with the banjo-type thing on the lower pitch and the melody instrument on the upper pitch.
Many N64 games weren't terribly precise in their synth instruments, and this upper instrument could be some generated synth sound (to me it's like what we call a synth pad, with with a quick attack). It also sounds like a cross between a mallet instrument and pizzicato.

My guess is also on banjo, or possibly steel drums.
For comparison's sake: banjo steel drums shamisen |
