[hasezwei]

has this become the 'post your growls' thread or what

[narrator]

has this become the 'post your growls' thread or what

Yeah it became less about a combined effort and more about trying to impress.

[Mazak]

I was under the impression that if someone asked i'd give them my patches and a little insight on the effect chain. Cause I don't give no fucks.

Yo guys!

Tried to make some Drumstep earlier today. I think I got a pretty "ok", not over the edge, kinda sound out of Reason, Malström and Ableton.
If you want details about the FX-chain and whatnot, just tell me and maybe I'll post some screens!

you know who else made some drumstep earlier today?

MY MOM!!!

Oh, and that sounds really good, if that was mine I`d definitely work on trying to make a whole track out of it.

[makeshift_edm]

I agree with the lack of help this post has become.

Come on guys lets share the knowledge and make the worlds 1st UBER GROWL!!!

im sorry but this is a double-post. A local storm knocked out the internet at my house for the last week but i'm at a starbucks so its all good.

This growl I made with fm8, ableton vocoder, guitar rig, and ohmicide (and honestly thats about it)

fm8= initial stretchy sound harmonically rich tone + modulation using the talkbox effect

vocoder - set to pitch mode allows you to affect the sound in some weird way i don't really get and you can raise and lower it with the pitch setting. or you can modulate it with the formant knob

guitar rig - really transforms the sound by adding a bit of downsampling (just a smattering!), alsa use the whammy pitch tool to shift it down a bit less then an octave lest it get muddy.

ohmicide - just go to town in ohmicide to widen, grunge up, and phatten up the hell out of it.

(don't forget there is a lot of eqing and multiband compression used along the way to keep things balanced.)

thats pretty good. i couldnt picture it in a song tbh. i think talkbox,wowfilter,formant presets all sound super generic.

[jrisreal]

Not if used like this. This will never get old/overdone.

that sounds awesome and all, but the effect can be recreated very easily with a vocoder for the color and controlling the pitch via midi with autotune

MYYY MOOOOOOM!!!
lol

wow thanks... I think this will definately be a whole track in a while. still working on the growl though. I think it needs some more distortion or something, not sure though, I don't want the sound to get muddier than it ready is... fricking hard to make a clean sound haha

make a copy of the growl bass, low pass it, then distort, saturate, and compress the hell out of that, then layer that on top of the original, instant fatness&fullness and harmonics

Here's our latest remix / release type thing. There are some growls in there at the beginning of the drop, if anyone is interested I can talk through my process. Not perfect and if I were to do them again I'd work more on bringing out the lower mids.

Yeah...but not the point of my post. I was saying that formant modulation, while it can be annoyingly over-used in brostep growls, is also one of the classic sounds that will be neither forgotten nor over-done
