Hello everyone!
I am working on an LMMS project with the goal of recreating the timbres of "If I Had You" by Adam Lambert, and I need suggestions to make the sounds as close as possible to the original.
In my project, I organized the tracks in the song editor with the following names:
Vital Presets: I created two presets in Vital, but neither managed to achieve a sound that is close enough to the original.
Laser Beam: This track used to gradually increase in volume until the chorus, but now it produces no sound, and the sound itself isn’t as similar to the original. This element occurs between 00:40 and 00:44 of the song.
pad_chorus: A track used in the chorus that, despite adjustments, still doesn’t match the desired timbre.
Synth: A synth created with the Triple Oscillator that also hasn’t reached the sound I’m aiming for.
arpeggiator-manual: A track with an arpeggiator preset that, so far, does not have the ideal timbre.
Guit-Ambient and Arpeggiator-Manual: Two tracks that work together to produce a sound between 0:59 and 1:13, which resembles a heavy metal guitar mixed with a synth.
Additionally, I used Element to bridge Vestige with Kontakt 8 – within Kontakt, I loaded Shreddage 3.5 Stratus Free – and also to bridge with Vital.
I am making the project and presets available via an attached zipped folder.

Furthermore, I would like to know if there is anything else missing that could help achieve a sound even closer to the original. If so, please let me know how to proceed.
I would appreciate any tips and suggestions on how to adjust each of these elements—whether in synthesis, mixing, or effects processing—to achieve a final result that is as close as possible to the original sound of the song.
Thank you in advance for your help!
