Yeah I agree with you, just thought I'd throw the challenge out there!

You know where to find me...

yea just between working 40+ hrs a week, working on programming some mods, and working on my normal music i'm not so enthused to use my free time recreating someone else's sound rather than working on my own
that's video game playing time

I think i pretty much got the Jack Beats sound from their Fogbank remix. around 0:20 seconds in.

hum.. thats a pretty basic fidget/bassline wet wobble... there is more then one jack beats wobble sound..

This is the classic Jack beats sound really, well the one i was talking about in the video above anyways.

yeah its really just a basic wet fidget wobble.. they've made some pretty rad sounds in comparison to this one... altho i reckon uve nailed it...

i like the more odd stuff like



and if i were to set my mind on a ''classic'' jack beats wobble... it would be the one from ufo... they've reused it ever since... in most of their releases...

the one in UFO is actually not too different than making the Get Off one. it's mostly from just messing with the scream/band reject filters in Massive. it's fairly tedious to automate the settings though, one tweak changes the sound completely.

I really like Jack beats but i find their stuff sounds kinda thin or something, maybe they dont want the heavy big sound seeing as their beats arent too heavy either, very classic drum machine sounds goin on.

That actually sounds pretty legit. I tried it and i got pretty decent results. Could you go a bit into detail on how to make the wobble so crispy though ?

I agree but the thin sound exactly what I love about jack beats. Its pretty minimalistic and raw even but its so geniusly done that it sounds beautiful.

watch this tutorial if you have massive



if not then you can apply this to almost any wavetable synth

Here's another attempt i made really quickly. nothing much more than a square routed through a band reject then a high pass and layer in a sub, bit of mono phaser and pump the highs a bit inside ableton. run that through sugar bytes wow and mess with the tub and xcita function. should get you close in no time.

Here's the secret.... ready?




Double Notch Filter. Drop Amp gain on LFO til it sounds right


fin.

The easiest solution imo: Native Instruments Razor. It will get you wobbling in no time. Has a really crisp sound
which is more than perfect for this kinda stuff. I'm deeply in love with it.

edit: i guess this isn't really news to anybody from what i read. But still check it out. I think it even comes with a preset that emulates the Jack Beats sound. Not sure though.

Thanks for all the tips though !!

thx for bringing something to the thread.

hwv jack beats is more then just a synth, or a preset. i really think their production level is above many. there's a certain theme/consistency to their work that is just inspiring if you ask me. the patch is a part of it, but as we've said the arangement/automation is actually what makes it interesting..

thus, i think what they do goes beyond the tools.
