Hey, would anyone be interested on working on a tune together. Formally considered a collaboration. I'd like to bounce reese basses off each other and make it a cool learning experience/experiment. And maybe give out the tune for free or something.

Anyone interested?

No, I had no lfo on there, I just drew the automation in the automation clip. ;)

I would be, busy this week but free the next..

Collabing on a whole tune over the net with randoms, in my experience doenst always work.. but i like the idea of bouncing down reesces then sending them back and forth as we add to them, could get some really good results, and if a tune follows their after all the better!

I actually forgot (I think I did atleast) to post the reese in the tune in my sig :) Layered two different reeses processed in two different ways, notch filtered around 200 Hz I think it was, and then put it in the tune :)

Made this reese half asleep last night. Still can do with more work, but I'll maybe continue on that later or something. Tried making something similar to a reese I heard on here a while ago, but at the same time, not too similar.

that could be a monster if you beefed it up some more and gave it some more movement.

I know this isn't a reese, but the movement i got in this bassline is very similar to techniques people use to get crazy reeces. In this case I just automated one of the ableton eq eight formant vowel poles get those vowely sounds if anyones curious.. Plus camel crusher. Also Day Z is bad ass.

Edit: Thought i'd also mention that resampling your bassline in ableton, turning warp on and putting it on complex, and doubling the bpm (in this case from 160 to 320) so it gets stretched, yields some good results as well.

Sounded good mate, I honestly don't now what else you can do with it. I dont feel like distortion is the way to go with that one. maybe more filtering? :P

I think that it sounds a bit "low-passed" to me. I think it needs more top end crispyness :)

This one is almost done - the whomps and "wubs" in there are low-passed reeses - but the real winner for me is the pitch down with the cutoff automation which gives it a really powerful but nice growl. Played it on a proper club system tonight and it's a winner. Love it when I can get it "right" :D

Made this short neurofunky thing the other day. I probably wouldn't call it a reese at this point, but whatever. http://ge.tt/52Y7tFI/v/0

That's not a bad reese. I'd chop the good parts out and further process them. I'd watch the amount of distortion/verb as you continue to process it as it will become too metallic-y/water-y watch the resonance too. There are some good crispy top end parts that i'd be proud of :)

Heres something I slapped together. I didn't really try adjusting many of the parameters but I think it sounds pretty good. I am pretty sure I used someone elses "melody" (if you want to call something this simple a melody) but I feel that it shows off the reese the best. Reeses love dem pitch bends. First half is with one thing modulated, second half is with two things modulated. I could do alot more with it.
