Hi, I've spent weeks looking for a tutorial on how to make a heavy "Talking bass" like the one used in D-Jahsta, 12Gauge & Sadhu - Baptism Of Fire (
https://soundcloud.com/sadhudubstep/d-j ... hu-baptism) at 0:54. I'm pretty sure it was done in fm8 and run through a vocoder or something of that sort. If anyone can help me create this sound, I would appriciate it. Thank you.

Seems to me it sounds like your basic massive patch with like a heavy wave table like crude or whatever. Then insert your basic lfo to cut off on a filter. After you have your basic shitty wub wub hear goes the intersting part

. To get metalic sounds like that its best to use reverb or a simple delay with the time speed at a couple ms. It will sound way different than before. Then you go into your midi and put your notes and the speed you want it at. Once your full happy with that time time to go resample it

. Add you basic stuff, flanger,phaser and other junk. Take out the low end if want to replace it with another sub. I dont know if theres a wow filter or not? But it seems to me it just gets that vowely sound by all the after fxs and maybe adding a vocoder. But thats another thing with the vocoder.
Thats my case! I think most of that heavy womp sound it from the simple delay and modulation inside massive. Just add an envelope to an intensity or cut off, or something! Thats were the creativity happens with music, messing around till you get a good sound. goodluck mate

First off:
Hey dick bag, that isn't Sadhu's shitty machine gun sound, that's one of D Jahsta's basses. Did you notice how it was off HIS EP, and that Sadhu and 12 Gauge use machine gun shit in their songs? Try and figure this shit out, dickweed.
Here's in essence what youawant to do, asslicker:

And the reverb settings:

Fuck, I even made a patch for your retarded ass that only took about 3 minutes! It has some things you should look for to make it actually listenable (hint: They don't have anything to do with the oscillators!) so you can learn about Massive.

This sound is more about the filtering and the after effects, as opposed to the Source sound. The source sound has to have its own metallic feel at the beginning (easily achievable with most of Massive's digital and hybrid wavetables or fm synthesis). Afterwords, I would go about exaggerating the metallic sound with delay, reverb and comb filters. Then its really all about the filtering that changes the shape and movement, bandpassing, bandrejects, formant filters. The formant filter is a must at the end, thats how you get it talking. I use reason so I would just route into a thor, but if you have wow filter, you can just use that. Automate your other filters with the formant filter too, makes the movement more natural and flow easier. All about the filtering and the formants. Your vocoder idea can intensify the affect of the vowels, or increase the robotic sound more with some processed reeses or even transformers if your down for it, just eq what ever your vocoding into it nicely. Only thing is with wow filter, no matter what you do to it, its so overused and you cant get rid of that WOW sound that happens whenever you put it on something and I don't know an alternative off the top of my head besides eq's and thors formant filter
I dont know exactly how to get it, his have a lot more force behind them, and hit harder, they also have some more fuzz, and warmth to them that can be attained by some tube or tape distortion. Heres my shitty attempt at it

sadhu doesn't use massive, these sounds are done with layering a lot and automating.
