dubstep

Post by Meabert »

I'm trying to acheieve a dubstep sound with heavy ''oscilation'' i think thats the word? Theres a break dub combo already in this thing but how do you go about editing that? I'm pretty new at this

I think i can help you since i got into synthesizers trough dubstep. Are you looking for that wobble bass or something else? I think im 99 % sure that thats what you are looking for. So! You should use a waveform with plenty of overtones like Formant or Saw. Then you should use a LFO and make it go trough cutoff or the level of volume! Then apply the level of modulation and put the cutoff closed enough. OH and you should use low pass filter!. And if the sound needs more low end, layer it with a deep sine wave. Then just push the mid frequencys up with eQ/ drive for that sick growl and adjust the lfo to your liking.

Well I mean there is a dub break filter that sounds like dub sound but the osilation isnt there like the 'spinning' sound if thats what you call it? is absent from the preset. is there other sounds i could shoot for if this isnt possible. perhaps dnb?
