you use renoise? if so, when you say that, do you mean using the 'send devide' so you can allocate the reese at different freq spans?
if so that's a neat trick some one taught me a while ago and it might of actually been you!

maybe excision did the same thing but however you do it in Reason.

would love to get to the bottom of the basses in "boom". I guess you just experiement, copy a patch and and tweak it, copy that patch and tweak it so you can alternate between different basslines.

To do freq splitting in Reason read this thread:http://www.dubstepforum.com/splitting-f ... 7925.html.
And whether you use sends or insert fx is up to you.

i dont intend to bore everything with brostep questions, but I simply must know what's going on in exsisions "boom" regarded the LFO.
it's all very loose, I'm begining to think it was done manually and not synced and then resampled? or do you think it's not even the synths own lfo and is controlled via a plugin LFO - if one exsists that is.

Can't beleive no one has talked about the "boom" bassline that much here, to me it's like the great mystery million dollar question.

also, albino doesn't give you that many options on waveforms, I always go for triangle, but this is what I want

how can I get those shapes controlling the filtercutoff ? I use renoise

@deadly habit - when you multiband your sound, do you bounce the whole thing and resplit, or do you leave it split and bounce each band individually?

depends on what i wanna do
resampling is handy when your cpu is getting eaten up or you just wanna start all over on a modulated and processed source from scratch instead of adding a clutter of automation lanes etc

don't hard sync it, use triplets or hand drawn sutomation or templates like mpc swing style

Imo precise control over the automation, rather than any "set" or "synced" lfo.

The Devastor D16 distortion unit is great. PERIOD, yet it doesn't have a wet dry knob, so I am always busing and recombining which sometimes muddles things up. God i wish there was a wet dry knob. If I am missing something PLEASE tell... cheers blah
Yes it does have a wet/dry knob, if yours doesn't you must be using an old version.

ENTER tnuc MODE: If you had paid for it you you would've been informed of new versions and would have the lastest version which has a wet/dry knob and a whole selection of different clipping shapes. D16 plugs are fucking awesome and dirty cheap so if you want to use them then buy them!

First of all, datsik and excision are production gurus. You won't get anywhere near their sound without a great grasp on how to use fx and resampling, but heres a tutorial I created that's a good starting point. You can download the patch if you watch the video on youtube (the link is in the description).

Hope this helps people - make sure you add your own blend of spices to it and make it your own. I reckon bouncing the audio into reason to use its effects gets pretty good results if you know what you're doing, but then there's plenty of vst fx that do similar things (The more I think about it and listen to the fx you can get our of reason, the more I think excision uses reason's fx - especially unison and tight delay (both automated)) - anyway let me know what you think...



here's a similar sound in reason (again you can download the patch from the description in the youtube video)

[quote="mc wayne"] no idea what vsti he uses [quote]
He posted in this thread himself

[quote="excision"] Synths:
Z3ta (for cold evil sounds)
Albino (for solid grimy wobs)
Predator (if you got enough time to sort it out, anything you want)
Massive (if your in the vibe of a tune and want cool sound really quick)

that's cause the Boom bassline is resampled and chopped up as is implied in this thread
