Roar Bass on ES2 Tutorial.

Post by matb123 » Sat Dec 24, 2011 10:40 pm

Hi guys! As the title says, this is strictly a logic tutorial.

Firstly initialize the patch as best as possible, I do this by Alt + clicking on all of the parameters to return them to their default. If you want to you can the go into the drop down menu of the synth after you have made everything its default setting and click save setting as and name it "#default". This will make it load from the patch you just created everytime you open that synth.

Turn on the unison. Select poly and make the voices "1"

We are only using one oscillator for this so turn 2 and 3 off. I know this won't make sense but take the point in the triangle a little more towards the 3rd osc (see in picture). Turn the 1st osc's pitch down by 12 and select sax2 from the digi waves.

Now the real scream of the sound comes from the filters. Make the filters work in parallel. Take the blend so it is just a tiny bit away from the right hand side. Leave the cutoff's of both filters down. Take the resonance nearly all the way up on the 1st and the whole way up on the second. Turn the drive the whole way up. Both filter types are "Lo" and "12db".

Now the envelopes, In the Target/Source area make cutoff 1+2 the target and Env 2 the source. Take the green triangle next to the Target/Source up to half way between 0 and +. On envelope 2 take the attack up so that the top of the ball is hitting the bottom of the number "2" (see in picture) and turn the decay all the way down. Leave the rest of the settings how they are provided that you made them their default settings first (if not refer to picture).

Lastly the effects, make the distortion the "hard" setting and turn the "distortion" all the way up and take the "tone" also the whole way up.

Enjoy! Merry xmas :D

If you don't have a patch that sounds similar to this then I will upload the patch for download. I didn't do this in the first place because I wanted to try and get people to understand why changing certain parameters made it sound this way.

It doesn't sound quite so aggressive there so I bounced a copy with some of logic's effects and eq on to show you how aggressive it can be.
