Sound Design / Rufus "you were right" bass sound
« on: June 25, 2016, 01:36:04 am »
I am still learning on how to make even simple sounds but I want to make a bass sound like the one in this song (comes in around 40 seconds). It seems like a saw wave layered but guidance to getting to where it sounds like the bass would be appreciated:

Inspiration/Creativity/Motivation / Finding a vocalist
« on: February 11, 2016, 05:22:29 pm »
I like making remixes with songs with vocals but in terms of sending them to labels, blogs, etc. its better if its all original. anyone have tips on where I would find vocalists to work with? My local scene has only two people and their voices are extremely different from what I would like.

Samples/Plugins/Software/Gear / Taking Samples from songs

I've tried this a couple of times and it seems to work out fairly well but I wanted to see what people do when it comes to taking sounds from tracks and if they know a way to get the most of the transient without the sounds from other instruments that might be playing at the same time?

Tried focusing on a couple areas that I'm not super skilled at yet in terms of arrangement and sound design.

All thoughts are welcome!

Sound Design / Maya Jane Coles Bass
« on: January 06, 2016, 10:09:19 pm »
I'm smitten by her production and her bass sounds are always so unique. So for example, this bass sound. what is involved with it? I have FL so either more general explanations or with VSTs like Fm8 or massive or something not operator or ableton specific please!

WIPs / House(?) song I've been playing around with

Any thoughts would be appreciated. I feel like I'm missing something in regards to the energy and then mix and master is something I'm lacking but I don't know what I should do to be better.

Thanks everybody and Thanks to Mat and Rishi for making this awesome forum! :)

Sound Design / Standard House-y FM Bass
« on: January 06, 2016, 04:02:27 am »
Examples: https://soundcloud.com/gorgon-city/warehouse-dub-free-download
https://soundcloud.com/dukedumont/wont-look-back

I've gotten presets for FM8 that sound sort of like this but usually a little harsher and I change it a little but it never sounds as "smooth" as some of the professionals have so basically i want to know

1) how to make one from scratch
2)why doing the things you do from scratch lead to it sounding the way it does
3) if its more processing after the fact or not

Can anyone help me learn something?
