that skrilly lead is made in fm8
purely subtractive synthesis wont give you those weird overtones, you gotta add em somehow.

we actually decided to drop enforcing that...it was decided that forcing it into a single thread killed the idea of the production related questions....

I wouldn't know. Last time I was on here was when it was created. I'll post here a few weeks every 4-6 months and it's always different.

Just ask skrillex directly. I'm sure he'll hand his sample library right over.

Lol. Another kid with pirated FL and Skrillex presets thinking he's the next sex machine in the clubs.

#1: Skrillex doesn't use Massive so stop watching those retarded videos on YouTube feeding you bullshit.
#2: Pick a good synth and learn how to use it. If you learn to use Massive, FM8, Albino, etc. you should be able to make 90% of your sounds from it.
#3: Don't get mad because you don't sound like somebody else, make your own sound.
#4: Dubstep isn't all about huge basses and shit. Stick with the groove and rhythm and let the bass fall in its place.

Sadly that's the best answer i got.

First, i don't like Skrillex.
Second, i dont waste my time seeing "Skrillex Presets Tutorial" Skrillex uses FM8, but what i'm trying to find is a sound from my head, its like a siren.
Third, im 13 fucking years old, im not going to start learning Synthesis.

But thanks for replying! :D

There's other 13 year olds who can synthesize...why not you? And synthesizing is really the only way to get a synthesized sound...
...in my opinion

There isn't a massive preset or vengeance sample pack that gives you work ethic unfortunately
