bassline help?

Post by krrs24 » Thu Feb 03, 2011 5:47 pm

How do u get from one synth to the next without it sounding harsh ?for example i have two different synths on two seperate channels with different modulation. I have tried using mild delay on the end of a note and also tried chorus.both sound no good.oh and I tried to fade white noise.

Going to take a shot at it and say either the two melodies do not clash well, or you haven't levelled them quite right.
If all else fails, just fade in and out.

Perhaps your LFO's are out of phase which would cause an odd cutoff jump.

If not, it sounds like an arrangement problem. Try messing with your drums (place a kick drum where your synths change, for example).

Hmm are you talking about two simultaneous synths or one after the other?

Use your Piano Roll to correct note length or adjust the ASDR in the synths.

Have you lowered your levels. Sounds like an awful lot of clipping if you havent! THAT would be harsh.

You'll want to learn how to use your filters and cutoffs too.
