RECORD ALL THE VOCALS

This Instalment will be focusing on making certain type's of bass's, Synth's and making drum loops. Once again 95% of all of this material is outsourced from Dubstepforum.com BASS I will run through a few popular bass sounds. First up, the Reece Bass REECE BASS What is a reece bass? A Reece Bass is when you get 2 saw waves which are both slightly out of tune which each other, ussualy around -.15 to +.15, and then add a low pass filter onto it and crank the resonance up a bit to create a low bussing bass. How to do this? Set 2 oscilators 2 a saw wave Detune them by a few cents in oposite directions (add 15 to one and subtract 15 from the other) Add a LowPass filter to the bass and bring down the cutoff a bit and add some resonance. This is how to make a basic Reece. you can then use a range of other effects to create new bass sounds from this weather it be a big whomping bass, a wobble etc. Video - THE WOBBLE BASS what is a wobble bass? The wobble bass, which is very familiar in the fidget and dubstep scene's but can really be used in any genre, is a bass that...well it wobbles. Example -> ( @1:30)How to make this bass? note: your synth will need to have a LFO to create this sounds (LFO = LowFrequencyOscilator) Firstly, choose any basic waveform in your synth. Secondly, select your LFO and set the speed (a good starting point is 1/8) Next assign your LFO to the FILTER CUTOFF (most are made with Lowpass filter's, but experiment with others to get different sounds) Your bass should now be wobbling. To create different wobbles, experiment with different LFO rates, different LFO wave types, Different waveform, Different Filters etc. Video - The Infamous YOY BASS What is it? The yoy bass is generally a vowel bass, a bass that sounds like it is saying vowel (YOY's, YEAH's, YAY's, YIY's) etc Example - (@0:42)how to make it? To do this you will need a synthesizer and a Bit Crusher of Formant Filter The way i do this, is open up your synthesizer and choose a basic square, and run it through a low pass filter and put the resonance up a it, now attach and LFO to the cut off, have the cut off sitting at around 2/3rds of the way open. and have the lfo only affecting it a little bit. next put your Bit Crusher effect onto your synth. Turn the resolution all the way up, then slowly bring down the sample rate and you will hear your synth slowly start to change, the higher your sample rate, the more deeper and grittier the sound gets. Congratulations, you are yoying. Video - Video -

DISCLAIMER: ok none of this is my own information. it is all taken from DubstepForum.com's production section http://www.dubstepforum.com/viewforum.php?f=8 Anyway here we go. Section One Best Music Software Mac vs PC Regardless of what others tell you, it does not matter whether you use a Mac or PC. The majority of popular creative software is available on both platforms, and operate identically across both platforms too. Choosing the Right Software When deciding which software to use, you should consider a few things first. 1> Your willingness to learn and to seek out new methods of creating music. 2> Your knowledge level regarding music and music production. 3> Your level of patience with computer programs. 4> Your visual preferences regarding the colour theme of a program and the layout of its controls. (Each program has its own visual style and workflow, and for most music producers this is the deciding factor in which programs they use regularly). If you are completely new to production, you may be better off starting with more 'easy to use' software such as 1 eJay 2 Music Maker 3 Garageband 4 Acid Pro 5 EnergyXT 6 Podium 7 Tracktion If you have a bit of knowledge about producing or think you have the patience to learn, you may as well go straight to the more profesional programs listed below Reaper Logic Ableton Live Reason/Record FL Studio Cubase Sonar Pro Tools Digital Performer Samplitude Audition Renoise Section 2 SAMPLES/SAMPLING once you have your DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) the next thing to do is get yourself some decent sample's. Generally the ones that come along with your DAW are pretty crappy, and there are brand's out there that make cd's/downloadable packages with higher quality samples mostly targeting certain genre's. Most sample pack's will include a bunch of kicks, snare's, hat's percs, these are generally aimed at the EDM industry but there are 1000's of them, some for rasta vocal's some for piano's some for didgeridoo's, you name it there is probaly a sample pack for it. Some of the most used in this industry are by brands Vengence and Loopmasters. Most of these you will have to buy. but there are a range of free sample packs out there, you can find these by googling 'Free Sample Packs or Free Sample Banks' etc here is a link to a thread on this site with free sample sites. ( viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4449 ) Synthesizers Ok now you have your sample's, its time to get to know what a Synthesizer is. A Synthesizer is a piece of Hardware or Software that generates sounds using a variety of wave shapes. With out going to far indepth, this is what you will be using to create your Lead synth's, Bass's, Atmospheric Sounds, and pretty much anything to be honest. Now most DAW's will come with a few software synth's to get you started, and some of them are pretty damn good. But if you find yourself feeling limited by what they can do you can get your hands on some External synthesizers...also known as VST's basically a peice of software that is compatible with your DAW but isnt made by the orignal brand. a few good ones are Massive by Native Instruments, Komplete by Native Instruments and Albino by Rob Papen just to name a few, there are also a large range of free ones you can get (see free samples thread linked above). EFFECTS The next thing is effects, you use these to make alter your sound in some way that you can not to with a basic synthesizer. General effects are as follows. Filter effects (these affect different frequencies of your sound) EQ's Filters Phase Inverters Vocoders Harmonic exciters Delay Effects Delay/Echo Reverb Modulation Effects Chorus Flanger Phasers Dynamic processing tools Compressors Limiters Gates Expanders Distortion Effects Distortion Bit Crunchers Waveshapers Ring Modulation Pitch and Time effects PitchShifters TimeStretchers Panoramic Effects Auto Panners Other Effects Vibrato Tremolo Now your DAW will come with most of these, but there is also 1000's of external ones, some for free some not that you can get that are maybe a little more professional, just have to search for them. This guide is just to give the extreme beginner an idea of what he or she needs to know to simply get started. I will make another one that touch's on making bass's, synth's, making decent drums. IF ANYONE WOULD LIKE ME TO ADD SOME MORE STUFF TO THIS THAT THEY THINK IS RELEVANT THEN LET ME KNOW IN THE COMMENTS

if you need any other guys im down.

ok here is a list of things going on friday night Soho - Ember and Ecats - so good party and heavy bass stuff. with a bit of commercial Fake - Bar 9 and Doctor wearwolf - Face Melting bass all night Chinese Laundry - Dj Hype, Blaze Trip, Spenda C. - Dnb, heavy bass and other shit.

pm. now this

no decks?

it looks like a face? or am i just really stoned.

taking photo's with microwaves?

can you give me a link to them? like to show me the specs, i havnt heard of them but if they are just simple wav files you should be able to use them with any DAW or any software man what do you want to use them for?

i dont play tech house, but my good friend dj/producer duo (go freek) love their tech house....oi could either go on the mailing list and pass it on to them or if you wanted me to get them on it directly.

cheers bruv

jaz you fuck, when you done with bonz gimme your vocal works... can you do forigen beggars type stuff? obviously not their accent but similar lyrics and pace
