Sifalis Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 hey people...just got a copy of cubasesx3 and am finding it hard to create a decent bassline with the onboard synths available...is it just me or do i need to get sum new plugins?? any one know any decent sites where i could download a sick bassline synth for psytrance production?? any help would be appreciated Quote
NEMO.BOFH Posted October 31, 2006 Posted October 31, 2006 with some decent effects, you can get some pretty cool sound out of the VB-1 bass... but there are sooooo many out there that create cool bassline sounds. Please search the forum, there are many threads with tips and tricks for creating basslines Quote
Sifalis Posted October 31, 2006 Author Posted October 31, 2006 i fidled around with vb-1 but it didnt make what i wanted---ok ill search the forum...didnt think of that thnxs NEMO Quote

Sifalis Posted November 6, 2006 Author Posted November 6, 2006 Shit i couldnt get on the net 4 ages!!! well if ur still around nemo...i was thinking if a sort of dark bassline that still has harmonics... the vb-1 is not working 4 me..i eq'd it and still had this annoying tape sound that was present wen i used 3-bar basslines! I tried to kill it with the eq but then the bass is to flat and shit! I really like the basslines that arnt fully hich pitched and have a really "Bassy" feel to them but arnt void of harmonics aswell...i tried vanguard and had sum success but i still cant get basslines like the pros... any other hints or programs?

cronodevir Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 what octave are your bass melodies in?..on the sequencer/pianoroll Quote
Mike A Posted November 6, 2006 Posted November 6, 2006 just about anything can do a bassline, but lately i'm using surge for most of my bassline (and my other sounds tbh ) Quote
Narr Posted November 12, 2006 Posted November 12, 2006 Download EVM Bassline. Its free. Very nice vsti. Play around with it for a while, I think you`ll like it. Quote
chans Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 there r many good vsts for basslines z3ta+, vanguard(for fat basslines), albino, hydra, v-station, muon tau pro, audiorealism bassline...and as for vb-1, try this:- download the vb-1 banks from kvr if u dont have 'em...select the bank 'ruvb1' and select the preset 'trombone??naa' put it through an eq decrease the higher frequencies, increase the mid jus a lil bit n make the bassline on the 2nd and 3rd octave for more tips tricks etc...,try the isratrance forum: the mother of all basslines thread hope that helped Quote
Jikkenteki Posted November 16, 2006 Posted November 16, 2006 Another useful tip (not just for bass but for everything) is do the majority of you patch tweaking while the rest of the track is playing. Most of the time when you spend hours working on a patch solo'ed and get it "just right" you drop it into the mix to find that it doesn't fit at all. Working with the whole thing going from the start helps you get the sound you really need much quicker. Quote

grimoire Posted November 20, 2006 Posted November 20, 2006 I like 'novation bass station' but there are many synths out there that you can create nice bass with. Quote
