I'm pretty new to music production and was wondering if anyone had any sort of an idea how to make raw kinda wobbles like in coki's horrid henry:



i've been using massive to try and get this, been messing around with different waveforms and layering lots of sounds but i've had little luck. if anyone has any ideas or can recomend a good synth for it it would be apreciated.

post questions like these in the "help me make this sound" thread, but for the record, coki does some crazy shit, the bass in goblin is amazing and have no idea how it was made.
This songs cool too

he uses reason so start there

i honestly dont like that song at all. well i do like the sample and the little incidentals he puts in. and also the percussions are top notch...thats a given with coki.. but the bass line is annoying as shit to me. i do enjoy goblin a lot though.

Pretty much all of Coki's old stuff is done with the Subtractor. Massively under rated synth, very distinctive sound.

subtractor mate, i've gotten some coki ish stuff from. I don't know enough about vst's to offer you something similar though. (isn't it a basic subtractive synthesizer ?)

yup..it really does have a distinctive sound. i was watching a youtube tutorial on how to make the "sick as sin" bass with subtractor and it reminds me so much of a lot of coki's shit.

i should get back into subtractor...iv been really diggin malstrom lately. i like thor too, but i still have a lot to learn about it.

This is why I need to rewire reason again

thats the exact video i was talking about good find. reason really is overlooked by so many people. im going to get record soon to make it a more full fledged daw. im not ready to learn another daw at this time so record will be perfect. eventually i plan to get logic...unless another daw catches my attention in the future.

Damn I need to get into reason I have it just haven't felt like installing it

The beauty of subtractor is it's waveforms. 7, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 14 were my secret weapons XD

What are they? Just oddly shaped waveforms? Would it be possible to get a similar sound from FM'ing two standard waveforms?

I really like the look of Reason, but I'm far too settled into FL to bother re-learning another DAW.

I'm not really sure what they are. It must be possible to make them using other means but I've never heard them come out of anything else. 7 and 9 are especially distinctive.

Thanks guys. Got some really cool funtcase-sounding bits with this.

But does anyone know how to make the LFO retrigger in subtractor? I chose the retrigger option on the top left but that doesn't retrigger the LFO.

and the marduk bassline? That thing is awesooooome

Apparently these are the numbered waveforms in Subtractor;

I've always wondered how to get bass sounds that sound like they've been resampled but obviously havent. I may be a synthesis noob but I can't get the simple "warp" style bass but can get some good yoi sounds. :/

Derp?

If they sound like they've been heavily resampled then they probably have - you can't do everything inside massive you know, you can get the rough sound and then dirty it up with layers of distortion/chorus/eq/more distortion etc etc

i have a combi patch where i have subtractor routed to thors LFO. subtractors lfo is just different and its not as nice. i like routing it to thors .if anyone wants it lmk

Not necessarily. I reckon at least as many producers don't resample as do. Kes-Es is a great example of how you can get ridiculously phat sounds straight out of the synth.

Also, onelove that link is awesome. EDIT: No it isn't, they only give you mp3s
