Holy mother shit (make robotic basslines and shit)

Pro tip that I just figured out. It is so pro.

Take a distorted snare, put reverb on it. Dry volume 0%, decay 0.1MS, Reverb 100%. Sample the end noise it makes, loop it, add lfo to cutoff, whatever. It is fucking amazing. Here is a sweet ass sweep I just made as an example of this technique fucking awesomeness.

IS THE SERIOUSNESS MISTAKEABLE FOR JOKING? OR AM I BEING TOO SUBTLE?

I like it, sounds like something about to take off. Automate the lfo and you've got even more interestingness. Pretty normal approach with snares but, for risers :)

Alright, enough with the crazy talk.

Just askin, is this a common way to fuck with a snare? I'm not trying to act/sound arrogant or full of myself.

I had a general piss around with snares and reverb/my sampler and came up with some interesting sweeps.
