Metallic Bassline: Anyone know how????

[Lectric]

alright so ive been trying to attain this mettalic sounding bassline, where it sounds like its alost got a ringing tone to it. if you dont know what im talking about you can hear it in the song Ignition by Downlink. I hate to sound like a dick but when people say things like "just layer sines and triangles" i dont really consider it help I use massive "not cracked dont hate" and i was wondering if anyone knew how to attain this metallic sound, and which presets do it.

a bit of resonance adds some ring...

specifically for me i use malstrom and turn the shift knob up a bit and play with the index slider. i can get a nice metallic bass with that. i know that doesn't really help you sorry get reason

Play with your phase and ring modulation. Those are essentially instant metallic basslines.

[DJ Crackle]

fast delay does some dope shit

[Lectric]

these are all good ideas that ill definitely try. however does anyone know which oscillator presets to layer to get the best one. cheers yall

Scrapyeard + broad wavetable position lfos = metallic sounds.

Add phase modulation = more metallic

put the shortest delay youve ever used on it via mixer rack = REALLY metallic.

LFO the master amp of the synth or a cutoff.

[chronicrecords]

add delay with almost slightly less then 0 delay time and it adds a nice metallic ring

in the bottom left of massive in the noise filter, it has a preset called metallic. try that, im not really sure what sound your talking about.

Much easier to do in FM synthesis as its quite metallic sounding once you get in-harmonic ratios

I have had ok results playing with flangers or intense comb filters in parallel busses to an already metallic sound.

OP, providing a clear timed example will help you ya know, its like someone said the other day, you cant expect us to know what you mean in a sea of bro wobbles...

[Ldizzy]

comb filtering / phase / ring

or fm synthesis

heres the sound im talking about im not sure what these things you guys are saying are, like fm synthesis, cuz im rather new to this, but yeh this is the sound im going for

which sound? that has a typical robot vocal patch and then a different one to fill every other bar, please, timelinks...

You are overestimating how much of brostep is a single synth and underesitmating the power of multiple patches/layering/cuts.

[serox]

please

no
