Layering chords/ bass help!!
« on: January 06, 2016, 06:43:59 am »
I've recently been trying to make those huge chord drops that mord fasting is really known for and i just can't get it right. Im pretty sure its a lot of layering but I'm not 100% sure. can anyone give me some tips/techniques on how he might be making these huge drops or any info on layering sounds?

thanks guys :)

It's 2 layer in fact one saw bass and one kinda detune supersaw that's all it's super dry that why it's sounds super loud and clear :)

Here's a good little tutorial from SeamlessR on Supersaws where he sort of goes over some of this. Then you can check out this video Flux Pavilion recently did for Point Blank, the electronic music school, where he goes over his track "Emotional" off his newest album. He sort of expands on the idea of layering, and if you try combining supersaws, clean saw waves, and other very basic waveforms playing different notes in a chord and you're almost there - now all you need is the sick chord progression.  ;)
