Help sort out my crappy SubBass
Just wanted to see if anybody can help sort out this problem
I've made a Sub bass synth using 3 instances of Thor put through a combinator so that I could change the resonance slightly on each one.... anyway it sounds pretty good until the sound stops because at the end of the synth I'm getting a click or a pop which is fairly gash.
Any ideas on how to get rid of it so that I'm left with a nice clean sub?
Thanks

Re: Help sort out my crappy SubBass
this may be a stupid answer but maybe turn your release up slightly on the amp env, not that much though, just enough so that the sound doesnt stop so abruptly..
Re: Help sort out my crappy SubBass
As well as adding a slight bit of release (do so until you can no longer hear the poppy-click), take all the highs and mids out of the channel that your sub's on using the EQ. This sorts it out for me completely 

Debut album "Bass, Space, Pace & Peace" out now on Methodology Recordings!
Cheers to all supporters and those who've dropped tracks in their shows!!

0.05 or so works for me on release. and yeah compress that mother fucker so you can pump up da volume, initwrexile wrote:As well as adding a slight bit of release (do so until you can no longer hear the poppy-click), take all the highs and mids out of the channel that your sub's on using the EQ.

Re: Help sort out my crappy SubBass
harmonics, pure sine waves and use a spectral for what speakers aren't playing

Works a charm!

Re: Help sort out my crappy SubBass
surely subs just a sine wave so just one freq, so no point EQing it anyway?MidnightMassDubstep wrote:0.05 or so works for me on release. and yeah compress that mother fucker so you can pump up da volume, initwrexile wrote:As well as adding a slight bit of release (do so until you can no longer hear the poppy-click), take all the highs and mids out of the channel that your sub's on using the EQ.

harmonics and dif octaves with proper eq then compression work magic
