Been trying to get some real grissle from albino 3 for a while but struggling.

Anyone out there wanna share some patches or tips on setup for some grinding tones?

Imagine a hair cutting buzzer ( before cutoff lfo )

*This is gonna cause loadsa shit but...*

like... Ruskos masterclass on thatube using Albino, and also like Bar9 beef.

Cheers fellas.

Actually I got Albino 3 not so long ago, and strugling to get that sharp distorted sound as well...some tips would be appreciated....

use effects, distortion, etc. bar9 uses bitcrusher.

in the rusko masterclass he says the sound is made by different osc pitches etc...
granted easier said than done so any more tips would he helpfull....

edit, or sample a hair cutting buzzer

i samples the sound of a chainsaw before, sounded pretty mean.

If your wobbling, put a white noise on one of the oscilators and LFO the fuck out of it, makes it screammmmmmmmm

interesting!!

Also, use the Saw waves in Albino pitched way up, and a couple pitched down to get a grizzly sound

Yeah I was using albino but switched to predator. I think predator interface is way better once you get into it.. So I like messing with the notch filter, find that sweet spot set filter freq between 40 and 70 depending on taste, then filter that sound with a 24 band low pass.. band pass and high pass different osc.. Filter envelope automation gets the wah really going..

Hmm I'm really strugling to make Predator w**ble...perhaps You could share some tips

isn't this one of the fun parts? whats the point of producing dubstep if you can't sit down and enjoy tweaking a synth to find a sound?

My advice tho is to start with a blank preset and don't get too complicated, From picking the very wave type for your osc, only choose/use it if its a step towards sounding like what you want. Don't use or add any extra filters or effects, or extra osc's if you don't need too, and only use them if they take you a step closer to the sound you want.

good advice, some helpful tips in this thread for sure. im gonna bump it just to see if anyone has anything to add?

might be chatting shit here but ive had similar results in other synths using FM synthesis, kinda gets that metalic machine type sounds.

slight lfo modulation on digital waves symmetry really helps get that grit...

+ the 3rd saturator is bad

^^ was going to recommend #3 saturation on your filter

this man knows

hehe.

trying to automate this one in subtle amounts with the cutoff knob almost closed really gives u some cool results...

mod matrix, its the easiest synth to make wobble


OP try the cream filter to add some grit to ur patches.

Would have said this as well...

albino is the shit...

lately ive been using the 5 stage envelope for lfo speeds, its funny and kinda forces u to have expressive sounds velocitywise
