KOAN sound/Culprate Immaculate Bass?
hey everyone

ive been wanting to know about this bass sound for a while now, its like a reese/dubstep wobble hybrid that alot of the dubsaw recordings guys use:





drop for both tracks is at 54 sec

how does he get that bone shattering crunch? its so compact and punchy

im still relatively new to distorted bass sounds, so ive been reading up alot and experimenting on my own, but would anyone have any tips to help me out?

i read that tutorial by polymass about granular synthesizing basslines+resampling and i think thats about as close as ive been able to find. seems like these dubsaw guys use a lot of the same technique, layering sub+mid distorted reese+granulized sample.

thanks for reading this, looking forward to any replies!

cheers,

hans from tokyo

Dont stare yourself to death on the whole granular - frequency splitting thing.

First you need a good source. Spend a weekend or 2 with your favourite synth (digi or hard). Read the manual. Tbh, sometimes a good fx xhain and bass synth patch is 90% of sound.

Then use the techniques explained in all the tut's about resampling.

People seem to think there's some secret sound to be achieved in resampling. It's merely bouncing audio for me. Audio can be manipulated while midi is less flexible in processing you can also automate portamento etc. Something that you loose in audio.


Hope this helps.

haha i see what you mean polymass. i think ill take your advice and go back to square one and just work on some reeses for now. thank you for your reply, it definitely helped clear some things up. i just recently hooked my internet back up so ive been a bit overzealous with gathering as much info as my brain can handle haha. thanks for your tutorials by the way, really awesome of you to do them.

also, bloodrobots, not sure what the comment meant, but that track in your sig is beastly!
