Guest Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 basicly my question is where do artists usually get all those random sound effect samples, all those blips and zooms. are there any sites? or cds? i searched all around the samples thread on this forums but it seems like all they have is synth samples and drum loops.... any guidelines??? thenx in advence =D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shaft Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Use a synth! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rupture Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 do them by yourself! I usually open a cubase vsti or a Reason subtractor and synthetise the "blips an blops",sometimes randomly sometimes patterned and save them the to wave format...then its just about opening them with your fav. sequencer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaft Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 Hybrid synths are pretty good for anything - try http://www.kvraudio.com - I think though you can make FX with any decent synth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 30, 2005 Share Posted August 30, 2005 uhh I didn't understand quite well what you asked... 325358[/snapback] haha well. when i rewire reason to cubase, i can play the lets say bassline, on the audio line. but, i cant save it such way that that line i specified for that lets say bassline playes the bassline alone. cause when i switch to another line it still plays that bassline, insted of lets say the leads i just loaded on reason... hard to explain... sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then u want to solo one of them and when u do it, both still plays? Solution: solo on the mixer instead of on the midi-tracks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

benf52 Posted August 31, 2005 Share Posted August 31, 2005 just use cubase with some vsts... the synths (vsts) r better on cubase anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumshiver Posted September 1, 2005 Share Posted September 1, 2005 try setting up different VST channels for each reason device. then you can midi control each one from cubase independantly. then after your happy you can bounce them to audio tracks. dont know if this is what you mean but good luck anyway.

Guest Posted September 4, 2005 Share Posted September 4, 2005 Get a synth/sample with a sound that you want, have it trigger either from a sequencer or your keyboard have some delay on it 3 steps normally. As the note triggers, turn the frequency knob and/or the resonance knob at the same time. Either from midlow to high position, or other way round, you'll hear those bips and blop sounds. You can then record that sound as a sample and use it, or copy that automation for the next triggering of that sound, automations are better as you can make it slighly different each time. Hope that helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Create a device. Subtractor/Malstrom/NNXT(try using the bass samples) Create a delay on the device, turn the dry/wet knob to just above the dry side, leave the rest as is. Make a loop four bars long. On the start of each bar have a note trigger make the first one 1/16/th long, then next 1/8th etc..... play the loops. You'll hear sounds. Now as the loop plays, when the note triggers, turn the frequency knob. Those are the blip/blop/zap sounds. The more you play around the more you'll learn. As for automation, it is when you record what you've just done, so it would be as if you had turned those knobs again. I suggest you read a cubase/reason user manual before going on any more.
