What happened to Rendr
He turned out to actually be Burial. And that would also explain where he got that £30,000 from.

how do you make the bass stop when you want another sound come in like a different pattern of bass like a hook or some thing

this track is starting to do my head in...listen at 1:20 where that edited sound come in i tryed chopping it up ,tryed turn the volume down before the next bar come in but its still not working for..

basicly once i have a bass pattern going when i want to add another bass pattern in the bass in how do i make the 1st bass stop with out the extatic sound...i dont know if this is making any sence..

Can someone recommend a good free vst for wobble bass? I'm using Ableton and currently only have simpler. I can make sounds in simpler wobble but it isn't exactly what I want.

You can make some sub bass in Ableton Live using Operator, make a midi channel, whack in Operator then make it sync using the drop down box which will have the letters R, L and S, use S then change the rate of the wobble to whatever you want. Then click on the filter and turn it on, leave it as it is and change the frequency to somewhere around 10 - 17, after this turn on the pitch env and change the transpose to minus 30. There you go, easy sub bass in Ableton Live, you can also throw on Corpus on top of Operator and sidechain it to get some other effects.

Any synthesizer VST is good for wobble bass, just depends on what you do with it.

Try spreading your oscillators over differect octave, and detune _a bit_ for fatness.

Operator, is that an FM synth?

for wobble, you need a synth with LFOs that have a DAWs beats per minute sync. plus FM is good for doing that changing-the-metallic-tone while it's wobbling, which is a common trend these days.

You do not need a synth with LFO rate sync. Actually, you can do some pretty cool stuff with unsynced automation.

Excellent advice. I'm just having a bit of trouble finding out how to control all of these parameters with the new synths I've downloaded. Some of them I have exactly what I want for one second, then I change one parameter and it sounds like a regular synth sound again. balls.

Make sure to watch the attack, delay, and sustain on your synth. That's been a problem I've had to watch out for.

The best thing I was told when learning synthesis, is not only to experiment all day long, but also knowing how it works in theory.

Google every button that you don't know what it does / or how it works.

if your using ableton you would probably want to set your voices to one and turn your glide on to move smoothly between notes its a good sound i would also sugest syncing your LFO to ableton's clock and key mapping the beats so you can speed up and slow down your wobble
great tutorial mate just thought that would be useful ps i find a bp fileter gives a better sound
What do you mean by "key mapping the beats"? I am a beginner using simpler and trying to catch a good wobble for the first time so be easy on me. I have done all the other parts of the process except "key mapping the beats". What´s that for and how can i do it :?:


Thanx in advance and pardon my english.

He probably mean keyboard tracking. So the higher pitch you play, the faster the LFO will modify your cutoff frequency.

To help you any further, I woult need to know what synth you are using to find if it has keyboard tracking, and where the button is ;)

Hi there, thank you for the answer :D ,

I am using ableton live 8 SIMPLER but i also have SAMPLER and RECYCLE. I tried assigning the lfo to the key and pitch and Simpler´s volume but it sounds like shit. Probably because the samples are badly cut and crossfaded but i really couldn´t tell. I am using the two bass samples from the DSF18 contest at the same time in an instrument rack with two simplers so they should work but when i turn on the lfo they sound all blurry and not really cohese. I have done the filtering and the compression on both samples and Overdrive on the bass medium layer and they almost sound nice together when not lfoed even if you can hear the looping fading in and out constantly but when I go for the LFO it just sounds like an unpleasant whirlwind of bass falling apart. Idon´t know much about instrument racks and sidechaining, but the second layer (the medium layer ) keeps dropping the volume cycicly and I suspect the compressor. Overall I have the feeling I lack some basic knowledge on the racks also if I am not doing something wrong with the Lfo. -q- -q- -q-

Pardon my english... I didn´t mean the 2 samples were badly cut by DSF :oops: . I meant that maybe I didn´t crop them and faded them on the right place because when they loop the volume is uneven. Probably that damages the whole process.
