Guest Ferox Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 Hey there, I'm a dutch hardcore-techno producer, well.. actually trancecore, but most of you guys won't even know it excists.. it's very small I want to start to produce some psytrance soon.. I'm about to buy a Korg Prophecy to use for lead synths and I already have a Mackie mixer + some effect gear. So now my question is..: I want to create those really phat basslines and something to create great fx-sounds with.. what synth(s) should i get? many thanks in advance! peace! Quote
Guest spiralix Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 Its fun to make bassline with analogue machines! it gives a phat base!: ) i often do min with my korg mono/poly, its a nice peice.. but i bet any other analogue will do too.. You will need a midi/cv convertor tho! Good luck! Quote
Guest Ferox Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 thanks for the tip! I'll start looking right away... can't wait to explore the world of midi.. I've been tracking for 6 years now(FT2 after that Buzz).. it's time for something new now :-) I've seen a Korg Electribe EA-1.. maybe that would be usefull for creating good solid basslines? Quote
Guest Rémi Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 I have an electribe... if u have only a few money, it could be good... But if u have heavy budget, so go for a Clavia norlead or an access virus... THose are the fattest synths i've ever heard... For FX's, all synths can do it, just tweak the right knobs dude! Perhaps JP-8000 is interesting, like the microwave... Or go for an Akai sampler (or an other one of course!) Bom! Quote

Guest raz [etnoscope] Posted April 25, 2002 Posted April 25, 2002 If you wan´t to produce phat basslines stay away from the ea-1. It´s weak design and poor sound quality makes it nothing else than a mere toy. For real phatness nothing beats analog, or maybe virtual analog like virus,nm etc. You can pick a up a used analog synthesizer for a couple of hundred bucks, (and sometimes even cheaper than that) and get a midi2cv converter to controll it. Or you could buy the syntecno teebee which has 4 midi2cv converters and a tb303clone built into it... "infinity moves in all directions" /raz[etnoscope] Quote
