Guest Salient Posted April 29, 2006 Report Share Posted April 29, 2006 (edited) A perfect example would be the bass sound in John B - Up All Night, I woulda guessed it would be all about detuning, layering and distortion, but I don't really have a clue :heart: :on2long: :nuke: :phone: Edited April 29, 2006 by Salient Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/7772-achieving-a-super-thick-and-evil-saw-bass/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Iain C Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 Salient said: detuning, layering and distortion Sounds about right... try making two copies of your bass, highpass one and lowpass the other. That way you can distort the high frequencies to get the rough, raw sound, but leave the bass clear and pummeling. Bo!

Guest Duke Remington Posted April 30, 2006 Report Share Posted April 30, 2006 two letters: FM you need 2 oscillators, one detuned at about 1/3 of the other, but you really need to turn the knob until its right, theres a very distinctive moment were it goes BRRRAAWWWWWWAAARRRRWWWWWWWAAA and a 24/36 db filter is important. try absynth and SAMPLE it dont play it directly off a synth because only a few notes create the desired effect so what you need to do is find one of them and sample it and then youl have that growl on all the notes you play. man you should definitely go to the DOGS ON ACID forum for everything drum n bass related they have quite a few good tips, although the biggest secrets are kept... well secret (actually the biggest bass secret of all is layering... and perspiration) Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/7772-achieving-a-super-thick-and-evil-saw-bass/#findComment-158760 Share on other sites More sharing options...
