RE:Feed Me.

He does use massive. In that mau5hax thing he was saying he doesn't really split frequencies and hadn't played with that much.

Thank you for the clarification.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure Feed Me uses Massive. I'm absolutely sure that KTN uses Massive too, and his basslines are DEFINITELY unique.

The Pink Lady bass sounds suspiciously like part of the Scrapyard or Carbon wavetables.

KTN also said that he knows Feed Me loves FM8 as well.

I mean, nobody said producers can't use more than one synth haha

[mthrfnk]

A lot of both their midrange's sound like manipulated Massive wavetables in bend+/- mode tbf.

[nanocloud]

Most feed me basses i think can be recreated with Massive (if that's what you intend to do) but there's two that come to mind that I think are exceptions to that rule: the Cloudburn bass and the Trapdoor growl. Cloudburn sounds like fm8 in my opinion, and I don't know what the hell to do about Trapdoor hahahaha.

I mean, you can make dirty basses with every synth, I make all my neuroshit with 3xosc and it doesn't sound bad

[mthrfnk]

Trapdoor sounds like something you could create in Massive with some clever modulation.

Also considering feed me uses FL, it wouldn't surprise me i he made stuff in 3xOSC too.

Anything I could do this growl to make it "better", generally happy with it just not sure what else I could do. I got two of the growl panned hard and delayed, and a sub underneath, EQ modulation, some distortion, slight bitcrushing.

Anything else?

@nanocloud:
That's pretty rad, care to explain how you made it?

@Sinergy:
It's nice, but the growl itself lacks some low end, try layering it?

As in a sub? I have a sub layered, it's just pretty quiet in that bit. I dunno where else I'd add lowend, I have it cut at 100 for the kick, and then a small notch at 200 for the snare.

I don't think he means sub, just more in the lower register. I have synesthesia and I see sounds as shapes and colours, and to me, the growl looks like it has a lot of bottom and top but the body seems to be hard to pick out.

90% sure he uses it for his Spor basses

Trapdoor massive patch, let's figure it out man! Probably my favorite growl of all time

Boy you on LSD?

But really haha, so is this a layering thing or EQ, Cause I like I said I have it cut when it needs to be in a mix, and turning off those cuts doesn't seem to make the sound any fuller.

As in, what could I do to this sound to give it more body

[Impresario]

Good evening, had little time for producing lately, but putting my Kill The Noise growl -

Soundcloud

- to work again in this work in progress thingy I started today...I'd love some feedback or ideas because I'm flush out of them for the day (and can't have a puff because drug test coming up for my job )

Anyway it isn't much (length-wise) but thanks in advance

Lol, what are you smoking?
Synthesia is a software for analyzing midis

Wrong.

Some wicked bass noises in here too!

Yeah I read it wrong.
But synthesia is indeed a software for analyzing midis.

[Electric_Head]

Yep, you are correct.

[Maxxan]

Can someone explain why you would want to use 3xOsc for anything other than just a straight sine/triangle/square or whatever? To those of you saying you use it for growls and reeses and whatever, what are the advantages over Massive/sylenth/sytrus or whatever, other than obviously pricetag and CPU load? Are there any? I use it for subs and nothing else, can't really see why I would unless I'm making a super-simple patch. But even then some additional effects and options couldn't hurt. Just don't see the use here.

[mthrfnk]

The question is really why not, if you can - why limit yourself?

I've made some cool things in it, I use it sometimes to make precursor sounds that I then put through resampling or granulizing processes.

[D00FY]

I'm waiting to hear this growl, it'll leave ever growl known to man in its dust, when it's finally been released... starts at about 0.29 - Gonna be nasty as fuck when it's released let me know if any of you have any ideas how its made if you can.. my guess is FM8

Well, Massive, for instance, can do everything 3xOsc can do and more, so why not use that? What does 3xOsc have that every other synth doesn't? It feels like a hipster thing that people use just to be different while they could be using a more capable synth. If it sounds better or has some unique feature or whatever I get it but it doesn't. I don't see the point. I mean if it works for you, sure, but I'd like to know what the argument is for NOT opening Sylenth or whatever and instead reaching for 3xOsc. If there is any.

OT: I don't use drum samples, I just turn on the mic on my Nokia 3310 and then record myself slapping it around with my dick for a bit and use that for percussion.
