Hello,

throughout last few years I found this sound in a few songs and I really like it. Can anyone tell me what kind of instrument is this?

It sounds like a cello to me but in some of these songs it sounds very electronicly, so I guess it's just a cello on a synth.

Sounds like an amplified cello to me somewhat based on the resonance of the sound.. I played viola and string bass in college and the sound more resembles a cello. IMHO
