I like that patch. Can I has details?

Which bit, theres 3 different basses.

Bookmarking this thread to read it later, gonna be helpful with these new dnb/dubstep tracks that I'm working on.

a lot of people have taken down their reese links but would have been interesting to hear what other peoples 3xosc reeses sound like. its the only synth i use lately for every bass.. reeses, brostep etc. might post in this thread soon.

^I can make some later and post up, always enjoy messing with 3xOsc

wickedd thanx man

mthrfnk that bass was sick. Reminds me of Kill the Noise's bass. Can you explain how you made it?

Heh, again,which bit there's 3 different basses.

Actually I may as well explain them all later tonight... atm I'm late for work haha.

Just had another epiphany when making a reese. I always use massive, and for the longest time would out the gate use the unisono slider on all my reese's. Now I'm not stranger to resampling, actually I picked it up early, however TOO MANY TIMES were they crap and I didn't know it. I can't stress enough how much the phasing needs to be taken into immense care when crafting a reese. From my experience, the unisono slider makes the phasing in the reese too far apart....UNLESS you choose to NOT resample. Now from what I understand, most reese's have mad aggression to them, main influences being Noisia and Spor. However, I've come to find that it takes resampling to achieve such aggressive character to the reese (applying gentle amounts of distortion/FX over a period of time) BUT if the phasing gets too much, it'll be garbage real fast.

TL;DR?....If you plan to resample a reese made in massive, don't use the unisono slider. Instead only allow it to get as wide as detuning to taste, then use phasers, or in ableton you can create a simpler group, and detune multiple versions of the patch by 1 or 2 cents in each resample, though this should be used gently also. Seems like phasers dial in the separation a lot more accurately/too much too fast.

anyways, cheers all. Just wanted to share

I forgot to post it anyways here we go...

There's 3 different basses in the main "verse".

All are reese-based.
>The first (at the drop) is a simple reese that was resampled in Harmor (see SeamlessR's tuts on YouTube) just to give it that phasy sound - basic stuff. I then used Kontakt to play the samples and used Kontakts phaser (this is what makes the talky sound. I think I used the screaming phaser preset). This is then routed to a mixer channel with Noveltech Character and iZotope Trash adding some grit.
>The second (plays a little riff between sections of the first bass) is more of a fat saw than a reese again it was resampled in Harmor (see SeamlessR's tuts on YouTube) to give it that phasy sound and again I used Kontakt to play the samples and used Kontakts phaser effect. This is then routed to a mixer channel with Noveltech Character and iZotope Trash with similar settings - I did try WOW on this but the formants actually ruined it.
>The third (more different than the others) is a Massive patch based on SAW I and SAW II with Deep Throat (set to bend +/-). The LFO then alters the WT-Pos of the Deep Throat wave pretty much from 0 to 100 and also alters a Bandreject filter. I also used Massives phaser on this and the sine shaper. This wasn't resampled - although I've now ended up resampling it for a more juicy sound. Now I can't exactly remember what effects I had on this because I've now changed them but I think it was just a very, very light bitcrusher and Noveltech Character - no distortion, the Massive patch was gritty enough.

Now if I'm honest all the patches are really simple, I've done no frequency splitting and I've done no EQ automation. But it sounds quite good to me atm.

To improve the sound each one is layered with an analogue sub patch and a saw bass. Both of these are EQ'd to sit under the reeses so from low to high: SUB¦SAW¦REESE.

The saws and reeses are bussed together with a comp to glue them.

That's about it, obviously there's other stuff (pads and swooshy noises that help fill stuff out).

Want any more details?

Here's a quick reese I threw together. I have no clue how you guys write melodies with reeses that are like, cut up and gliding that sound so good.

@dotcurrency: good sub and top end crunch, but the mid range has lost it's power though. I think it's almost a bit too distant in the mid range

nice one mthrfnk

Thanks
I'd suggest people checking out the October "How to make this" thread, a few of us have been posting reese stuff the past few pages.

Technically not a reese as I didnt use saw waves, but I mean, if I hadnt told you that it could pass as one, riite?
Resampled, granulized, resampled etc. Long process, but it came out awesome IMO.
basically just sharing this because I've realized how fokin awesome granulizers can make your reese sound.

Here's a couple of tunes I'm currently working on that use some reese bass. I'd be happy to give any one advise on how to make them (:
ps these are no where near finished so dont analyze them too much lol.

I like stutters and screws on the first one, how'd you make it?

For some reason, I decided to see how filtering a processed reese with ohmnicide, WOW, and a TINY bit of camelphat would sound. I don't think its half bad, so I decided to share
Every cut up reese I made is automated by like 3-4 filters. I even automated the WOW filter Vowel knob!

Fixion, I really like both of those tunes! In the first one, how did you make the reese sound...kind of like plastic wrap

to get that quick reese sweep (v.g Biome), play a note, pitchbend an octave and sweep a high pass filter with high resonance (q) and a notch/BR filter at the same time. Then, bounce it. Send it to a big reverb aux, resample. Now you have a reverberated reese sweep and a regular reese sweep. Cut the tail of the reverberated sound, reverse it, scoop out the mids a bit, low pass slightly to take out any harshness and layer ir over the original reese sweep. Bam, now your reese will sound like a super massive black hole sucking planet earth into a black oblivion.

Nice one Hircine!
