anyone know how to create this?

[ethanmansfield]

this has had me stumped for ages in the first 10 secs of this song how is that off beat bass created not in terms of placement or anything i get all that ( i actually got lessons of this guy ) but like that sound im assuming it was created in sylenth and it has a filter on it but is that sound created by distortion or ? could someone please help. need to know how to create tuffness!

I know little to nothing about edm, but that sounds like a vst i had on frooty loops called "sawer" synth. Might help

[ethanmansfield]

yeah i think i can remember that from when i use to use fl but i know for a fact this was created in ableton and that is what i am using now aswell.

[wrxfiend]

I'd think you could run the vst in ableton?

My knowledge is average on this stuff, i justdo all my work in machine software

[Mitch]

I don't make this type of music, but I'm pretty saw it's a saw wave synth, LFO, filters, distortion & maybe redux. Placed between the 2 kicks.

[ethanmansfield]

yeah i could re wire fl with ableton worth a try i guess!

Yeah that sounds logical ok ill give that a try to, hope i can get it with at least one of these methods.

[Tomy]

yeah like every one else has said probably a saw wave in there with a touch of over drive. sounds like its pitched down quite a bit too

[ethanmansfield]

boys still cant get it... its going to be the death of me!

I think the shape of the envelope is what gives it its character. It sounds like a electro/complextro stab with 2 saw wave oscillators, a low pass filter on it and an envelope with a really fast attack, and short decay. IF you use massive I can send you a preset.

this might help:

then just play a D# and take out some of the low end

[ethanmansfield]

sweet man trying this now

[street]

let me know if u need any more help coz I can upload the preset if u want

[ethanmansfield]

its sounded like it in term of the attack and decay but it wasnt gritty or rough enough so im just playing with different waves now.

[street]

try using the sineshaper, bitcrusher or hardclipper to give it that grittyness.
