Re: How to Become a SoundCloud Superstar, One Fake Fan at a

Definitely a good idea if you have music of a decent quality and some spare cash to spend
More hits in the past = higher chance of your music getting more traffic in the future thanks to the way the internet works (you will be higher in google searches + more likely to pop up on others soundcloud ...

Re: glitchy, skippy rhythms... but somehow smooth

alchemy is a awesome tune!

Id go for something like nectar to repitch and harmonize the vocal samples
once you have a melody then you can chop/edit them further

For skippy drums i like to just write patterns in triplet mode (never really liked abletons swing much)

Re: Tips for building a music pc

on my budget i5 bought 2 years ago my cpu bar never goes over 10% even with a hundred or so plugins running

Re: How do i make this sound? I hear it a lot in house music

I guess you are just missing distortion/drive?
First sound is pretty massive'y

try 2 saws at -12
the other at 0
Bit Crush + Clip
Tube + Dimension Expander (or reverb/mono chorus)
3 voices
Daft or daft + another filter (like scream/lp)
Eq to taste

then play around with pitch, filter and drive and ...

Re: Pitch enveloped grime bass sound

Sounds like its made in massive
carbon with env on the wavetable and amp for the high layer
+ lp filter
anything would work the for bottom

super hard clipping then bouncing down bass from 808 emulators sounds sick for these type of sounds;)

Re: Best audio interface for $400+?

For $400 to $500 you would be better off investing in new monitors;)


If you are only using it to plug your monitors into your computer then a $30 behringer will suffice;)

More expensive ones are only needed if you are recording sound (from guitars etc)

Re: Liquid Dub/Chillstep Basses

Basically sine wave is your starting point
From there you want to add small bits of additional waves (triangle/square/formant) just experiment;)

For my subs atm I am really digging fm 8

For synths sidechaining to notes that you cant actually hear (because they are muted) is pretty common ...

Re: Eptic - 'Space Business" Drop Synth

yeah there isnt much infomation out there for jump up dnb... most tutes are for neuro/reeses etc
square waves + bit crusher + chorus is generally the way to go for jump up whomps/wobs
most of the sound is not actually in the filter but rather the adsr of the sound

Re: Reduce cpu usage but keeping flexibility

Getting rid of any unnecessary programs on your pc will help (and normal computer maintenance type stuff)
Aero uses heaps of cpu in windows.... I would highly recommend disabling visual effects (control panel > system > advanced)
Id also tweak your virtual memory
