"how to be like showtek"

Post by Dhinojosa94 » Fri Feb 22, 2013 3:11 pm

This is one of those "omgz how i be liek teh skrill3x" threads, Showtek has been popping up recently ever since he did "How we do" with hardwell, he has this really wide synth in most of his tracks that id really like to know how he makes, and also the synth he uses in the drop in his upcoming track, "Slow down" is huge, i use sylenth and believe he does to, can anyone advice me on how to achieve this sounds?

I'm just sitting here scratching my head. I coulda sworn there's at least a few presets in Sylenth that sound almost identical to that. Just add some distortion and verb.
