Bass Question

Post by Quasi118 » Tue Nov 29, 2011 11:52 pm

I remember seeing a tutorial on how to make this sound in reason but I'm using ableton and i'm not using a subtractive synth. My question is how would you go about making the main wobble that comes after the drop in this song.

It's also sort of the same sound in this song as well.

I'm using massive and FM8 in conjunction with ableton so if anyone could point me in the right direction with that setup it would be appreciated :6:

That second song is a ripoff of that Benga and Skream tune with the squid or w/e it is.

I'm not a fan of Dubstep snobbery but I actually had to rub my eyes and make sure I had read that correctly.....

"That second song is a ripoff of that Benga and Skream tune with the squid or w/e it is."

My shock was at that statement. That was one of the pivotal songs in the dubstep genre and it was reffered to with the wrong artists as the tune "with the squid in". Just shocked me, thats all.

I phrased it wrong haha, i don't see the similarity in the tunes anyway, apart from descending notes, and ye let's wait till we get the fella arguing that night's actually garage, theres always one!! :a:

First video no longer works but the bass in Stagga's song is most definitely the subtractor synth in Reason . I've gotten close by using the bell wavetables in Logic's ES2 but the subtractor definitely has its own unique tone (I hear it a lot in almost all of Coki and Jakes songs). I haven't used Massive but if it has some metallic sounding wavetables I'd experiment with those, lfo to amplitude, and reverb on the high end.
Passion. Patience. Persistence. Progression.
