Here's a track I just finished up for 2012. One of the bass sounds I used is just a reese with ableton lives phaser over it and a couple plug-ins, I think I used camel phat. You can get some pretty cool sounds just by taking a simple reese in massive and adding plug-ins and effects such as Sugar Bytes Effectrix or camel phat, Also maybe some kind of distortion plug-in like the Sugar Bytes Wow plug-in.

I was chatting to Billain (imo the king of the twisted reece) not long ago. he says the thing with reeces is to grow them like plants and breed them into new elements, he said to keep doing this until interesting new breeds appear..

he dosent see a reece as a bass or whatever, just as another type of sound that can be layerd and manipulated with any other sound to make new and even more intresting sounds. he has a Q & A on the grid where he talks about his phelosophy (spelt that wrong ) on making sounds..

im thinking of just spending a week solid making a ton of reeces and mangling them together.. then after i have a lot of variations ill keep the ones that sound cool, and bin the ones that aint!

I'd like to keep this thread alive, love reese basses. Tune in my sig uses a reese i made on the virus. Ran it through a comb filter to get the metallic harsh sound, also some ring modulation. Then sent the top end to a delay. You can hear it about 1:30, also throughout the tune at the beginning and end of each 4 bars. Any thoughts welcome.

haha guys its not this thread thats in danger of dying, its the interesting sounds thread! lol ever since I started focusing on reese bass, I haven't posted in there lol

Is this any good? I made it with 2 instances of p8 and all free vsts or renoise native effects. I mean audacity nyquist effects

that would sound insane beefed up a bit and put in a neurofunk tune!

There's a couple reeses in my newest WIP. They're much different from what I usually go for but I like them so far.

There is a bit at 0.09 that sounds quite good!

You could chop that bit out and make a track around that noise imo. Make a few copies of it with different processing and you have most of ur bass sorted

[Artie_Fufkin]

haha yes, JR approved! What would you suggest for beefing it up? chorus/compression/reverb/delay? I did that but I might be able to turn it up a notch. I had actually started that renoise project playing around with dnb patterns and then wanted to jam some melodies over it and then got into an effects frenzy lol All it is is just distortion/filter/eq/flanger/chorus(in however many instances and whatever order) and dblue glitch

^^heheh ya that one makes me want to make a slower but not quite dubstep song. Thanks guys!

Ultimately one of my goals is to make something like this, but more powerful if possible :


Like warpy neurofunky bass with hard ass breaks like Current Value. That one snare where everything else is pushed out I can hear what I want in my head but creating the sounds and getting them to be powerful together is so hard!

haha. well I'd say make different copies at different octaves, layer what sounds best in area. m/s processing + flange for stereo width. a bit more disto. if you want, you could bandpass certain sweet spots and detune them extra, separately from the rest and layer back with the sound. just some suggestions of where I would take it from here. Also, try layering some really cripsy sound for the high end...something grainy or kinda growly, I'd say.

what frequency do you guys cut your reeses at? i find cutting anything past like 120ish and it starts losing body, but at the same time cutting at those sometimes leaves some lower frequencies i really want outta there

Depends how it sounds. Sometimes i'll cut the sub out after distortion, sometimes before as then i'll get the sub harmonics in the distortion. Bounce it to audio, then duplicate it, use a linear phase eq and cut most often at 100, hp for the main reese, lp for the sub. I'll bus all the subs to one group, same with midbasses. That way i have control over both.

[Immerse]

for some reason i have this idea in my head that any sub frequency with anything more than a sine wave supposably is shit. is this a myth or what?
