I'm trying to get the pitch-rising effect in this video right before the drop.

My knowledge is limited, but I would have put an env on the pitch and then just put individual notes on the piano roll.
Is there a simpler way to do this? That seems like it's too complicated.

Draw note > Pitch wheel +12 > draw higher note > pitch wheel +12 > draw higher note > pitch wheel +12

Basically, but something funny goes on with the waveform as well, try using a saw/square wavetable osc and modulate it (slowly)

very simple. you can use a long upward ramp attack on the pitch.
you can also use portamento set to a very slow speed.
in FL, you can use the "slide" blocks in the piano roll to slide a note from one pitch to another over a specified amount of time.

It's sidechained with the kick too, btw

Thanks for all the info!

If you're referring to a pitch wheel on a keyboard I do not have one. Also, I didn't realize the change in waveform. I'll check that out.

Thanks man. I'll try to figure that out. How do you open the "slide" blocks in the piano roll?

I hear that, but honestly I'm not entirely sure what sidechaining is or how to do it. I've messed around with the sidechaining technique in Massive a bit. Is there a topic or something you know of that could point me in the right direction?

a dude wrote:evening,

Side chain compression is basically using say a kick drum to trigger a compressor to reduce the gain of another signal. i.e. set the side chain input of a compressor to receive the signal of your kick channel and then every time your kick hits the compressor will reduce the level of your bass (or what ever instrument you have the compressor on) and allow the kick drum to hit through in the mix.

How to
For Cubase:


For FL Studio:


For Logic:


For Ableton:


Hope u have any of those

Damn! That sounds like it opens a crazy world of possibilities.
Thanks a ton! I'll check out that FL one right now.

How do I go about achieving such distorted, chopped audio I hear a lot in Skrillex remixes?

Stuff like: 3:25 - 3:31

I know he uses Ableton, so does he slice as a midi? I don't have my production laptop, so I can't test it :<

try manually slicing up the adio and repitching it

Yeah grab the vocal then cut up your favorite parts or sections you want to incorporate...
Crop them, then transpose them, reverse them, whatever you want
The limitations are endless

anybody know how to make this plucky sounding lead synth

Great thread x)

Hey guys, i was just wondering if anyone could help me get this synth sound that is in escape the womb. The sound occurs at 0:56 seconds, im not really sure how i would describe it... its a high sound that seems to drop in pitch i think? ive been trying to synthesize it on massive and sylenth with no luck so far... can anyone help me out?? thanks guys!

link please

i linked it in my post, does it not work for you?

Is anyone actually reading this?
IT'S GETDARKER EPISODE #100 TONIGHT, GET INVOLVED!

Okay, that's for the spamming.

Lol, it didnt show up bfore now. srry

thats okay, do you have any idea about the sound? that sound and the bass sound make the song imo

Soundcloud

Could anyone talk me through this kick? Ive heard about bass stabs being made with 808 kicks but having tried that out it doesnt sound anything like the kick in this track. Any tips?

Oh my god man. I need some serious help. I wanna recreate the wobble at precisely 0:28.

I just can't get that fat bitcrushed wobble for some reason. I've tried a bunch and they don't seem bassy enough. I'd be willing to share the massive patch if anyone can help me figure out this cluster FUCK.
