I need to make some cool, smooth pads and soundscapes for church but I hate the weird effects or modulations that most pads I find in Suite 8. Can anyone give me some tips of creating smooth pads (Coldplay) that evolve without going out of tune or anything weird? Which instrument would be better to use...Analog, Operator, Sampler?

HELP PLEASE!!!
