Build-up fx methods

[invictus]

What are the fx you use for a build-up?
I've been using a lot of eq'ed white noise LP filtered but I'm fed up with it.
What do you guys do?

White noise, envelope the colour and the cutoff of the lp filter. Envelope the resonance to open a little bit. Layer it with a saw wave, lfo on pitch, envelope the lfo rate so it build ups. Add a reverb, control the size and the dry wet knob, it starts fully dry and with the largest room. Compress, bitcrush a bit.

^ That and: instead of using envelopes, I use a macro control on Massive. This gives me more and easier control over the length and the way it rises with automations.

Either white noise, or i make a pad with lots of reverb and use band rejecting and notch filtering with slow lfos controling lots of paraments not restarting so it just sounds like moving white noise

Record random noises with laptop microphone. Timestretch, add delay n stuff, reverse.
