Kinda hollow sine wobble?

[madriggle]

I've been messing around trying to make this sound for a while and have come kinda close by filtering out parts of two sine oscillators (a sub and a high end) or using the formant setting in massive. Anyone reckon they can get it about right?

bass comes in at the drop

Sounds really nice, how'd you make it? If you wouldn't mind explaining

Yeah, no problem. It's fairly simple. There are two parts, a basic sub and a synth playing chords. The sub is just a sine wave with some saturation and some low-passing so it doesn't sound all furry. The chord synth is two detuned triangle waves with a low pass filter (I used the SVF in Ableton Operator) with a little resonant bump modulated with a little bit of envelope and an unsynced LFO, then I cut the lows with an EQ to keep it from getting too muddy. There's really nothing else going on. I'm sure you could refine it more with some post-processing. The magic of it is the interplay between the chords and the sub.

>.< i still cant get it, i followed the directions pretty well and got something that sounds kind of close, but not as exact as how yours sounds to the original song. Could i possibly get the ableton file? I just want to see what you've done. I Pm'd you

I might should have mentioned that if you're using Operator (or other FM synth), you need to set it so that the operators are not modulating each other (the four squares in a horizontal line in Operator). We're just using them like oscillators in an analog synth. Also, I sent it to elyhess, but here's my .als if anybody else wants to take a look at it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/xniotf0kzzpa0 ... enGone.als

Yeah ive been messing around with it for the last 30 minutes, its like the sub doesn't want to fit with the top synth chord, I'll take a look at this als, thanks mate
