[VirtualMark]

the tutorials not even close to the real sound

[filthy_]

I made a bass in es2 like the on used in the beginning of slats slats slats

[narrator]

not a bad tutorial but not really that close though.

Just made the bass at the drop from Kill Everybody. pretty easy really, using Massive alone too..

2 seconds in.

Jesus what's with everyone trying to make his basses for ? What special about them...? Sounds quite generic. Thread after thread shit man!

Maybe the real secret is to get a haircut like Skrillex

This plus his angst against everybody in the world would probably result in similar sounds. Add in some self hatred and I bet you could even get the scatta bass :dunce

for a second booze double vision saw this as silkie bass thread, then i opened it and saw what it was...

Maybe the real secret is to NEVER get a haircut -- like Skrillex

fixed.

This plus his angst against everybody in the world

In that interview vid he actually seemed like a regular non-hater dude.
His tunes are pretty good too, I just don't like these sounds. He uses them well in his stuff but they're not helpful or inspiring to me.

this is the worst tutorial I have ever watched, I have a preset that does a better Yoi than that and this sounds nothing like skrillex, please learn how to use a synthesizer and resampling and try again.

does no one believe in developing their own workflow anymore these days?

I do, purely because every time I try one of these 'MAKE BASS LIKE SKRILLEX/DATSIK/EXCISION' threads it ends up sounding like a turd so I just stick to trying things out myself.

[kontrol]

alright im shit, but at least its my kinda shit.

[Iko Rush]

I actually didn't think this was too bad, ok, so it doesn't sound exactly like Skrillex but it's not a terrible tutorial

im with you on this. i kept hearing his name all over the forums and finally listened to some yesterday, it was pure shite. saw some remix by him and closed the tab 5 seconds after the drop, i had heard enough to know what his stuff was going to be like. so predictable and generic, it sounds like stuff people were doing 2 years ago. i saw a picture of him and read his bio and it all made sense

[krz9000]

no need to hate him for the attention he gets. its out of his hands. the guy is pretty good i think.

this is my take on the scatta bass:

thats a pretty ignorant statement. 'generic and like stuff people were doing 2 years ago' my ass. whether you like his music or not, you can't knock his sound design, the guys cutting edge.

please tell me who sounded like skrillex 2 years ago, i'd be interested to know!
