I'm resurrecting this thread to show you guys this super awesome bro sound I made in massive. It's 3 sines, all an octave apart. The higher 2 are about half the amplitude. This and the envelopes are the key to this really simple sound. I just felt like posting this because it's a neat sound imo. Also using the band pass filter in massive with an lfo assigned to cutoff, which gives it a bit of extra crytal-ish ringy-ness to the sound(probably could use a bit of compression to even it out) and some delay and reverb. Oh and I used the "unisono/pitch cutoff" thing. Just an extra, detuned, voice. Enjoy! Soundcloud

wtf double post
Re: Post an interesting sound you have made thread
its a kick, distorted with camel crusher then overly wave shaped with cyanide to a sort of clicking, it has a flanger on it with no movement at all, then a forma-8 to give it the vowely sound and a obviously a delay
Re: Post an interesting sound you have made thread
Just a bit of a drum and bass track I'm working on.
This is niceeeeee! Would love details.
Filtered reese with vibrato?
Both sounds are made from the same reese, just resampled in different ways. The original reese I actually made in reason. I'm sure you could make a very similar one in whatever vst you use but I personally have tried with Massive for ages and can't get anything that has the crisp highs that this has (I know you can, I just can't seem to do it...). Anyways, If you're really interested I'll export a patch of it and send it to you. What I did in reason would take far too long for me to explain. But once I finished the reese sound itself, I imported it into FL studio, Eq'd it to taste (it already had the vibrato and alot of the movement-> the movement in the sound is Thor's sine shaper assigned to an LFO and the vibrato). Then I added some tube distortion via Camel Phat. Then I stuck on a low pass filter and maunually modulated the cutoff to open as each note holds. Then I stuck on Camel Space, and modulated its exciter and saturation to sort of follow the modulation of the lpf, so as the filter opens up, so does the amount of exciter and saturation. If you have any other questions or want the patch, feel free to pm me. Hope this helps.
I still get this warm feeling when I hear this reese, personally it's one of the best I've heard. Soo nice

Moving away from the ambient shit after finding a lot of inspiration in the sound design of people like Amon Tobin and Durk Kooistra, coming back round to realising you can be pretty avante garde with 'brostep'-esq sounds. So I've got stuck into actually programming bass lines from scratch for the first time ever. I've usually stayed away from mid range crap but I'm obsessive about cracking the secrets of those robotic twisty reese type sounds.
After 2 days of synth programming, FX automating, sampling, editing, more FX automating, re-sampling and a healthy does of granular shinanigans I've come out with this... well... Thing
About a billion miles away from my usual sound but I kinda like it. I'm cool with doing a bit of a write up about how I got to this point if anyone's interested. It'll be more of a general conceptual thing as a lot of it is experimentation, but I've sure figured out a wicked workflow for doing this type of stuff.
Fun times

thats amazing! would you mind describing the granular synthesis process you used?

not trying to be musical. just showin off some sounds i made SoundcloudSoundcloud
Kick: Layered samples eq'ed and compressed
Snare: 909 and club snare layered, eq'ed compressed, overdriven, and limited
Bass sounds: Random sounds made in various synths(massive, malstrom, thor) processed(eq, reverb, distortion) and then granulized using fl granulizer
Pad: massive>dimension expander>reverb

Thanks, man!
Been experimenting a lot today. Had a go at duplicating a b-line over multiple sends and making layers and trying to incorporate filter movement to fade/morph different layers in and out. Soundcloud
Also messed around with some interesting ways to get new sounds out of the same distortions. I'll make a thread about it when I'm somewhat finished exploring it!

Quite a few interesting sounds in this one. Crap tune IMO...but still: Soundcloud
theres the granulized piano...the weird sounding reese, which doubles as sub bass. stock fl drums actually sounding good :O
only thing uninteresting is the bitcrushed lead...except there was no bitcrushing involved. I used a waveshaper to emulate bitcrushing

Nah forget it. It sounded like any 8-bit square lead. The reese was just a reese, no added modulation or anything. And I realized that the melody is almost identical to B-Complex's tune "Beautiful Lies"
