there are different technics again
often the sub plays the same like the midrange. if you use a filter lfo on the mid, then it`s a good thing to use a volume lfo on the sub, doing the same.

i never have paid enough attention to the bass in my breakcore tracks,only focused on the breaks,but i really like the sound of the bass heavy dubstep,so do you split up the bass in 3 different parts(low,mids,high)or have the same bass part playing but with different modulation?(really nOOb question i know)
well, i`m more into drum&bass and i split only sub/mids and both are playing the same. sometimes i have 3 to 5 differnt midrange settings in one tune. hope this helps
thanks that helps alot
That’s an art on its own.
i find the “how do you make this sound” threads interesting. it’d be really nice to have a big anthology (or wiki) of such things one day, if i were ever knew enough i’d write it. yes often stuff like how to make a reece or how to make the dubstep wobble can be found on the net, but its not accessible to everyone, and the finer points such as this thread addresses are often overlooked. in terms of creativity, if you accept the sampler as tool, then ‘sampling’ the knowledge of how to make a certain popular synth sound is a perfectly valid way to make art. there is nothing wrong with making a genre track, particularly as a learning thing. similarly, as choice points out it can actually be good to watch people take element x from a (e.g. the wobble from dubstep) and combine it with element y from b (breakcore ). all your musical knowledge comes from somewhere, it doesn’t just come from the thin air of your artistic guiness, i think logging the information is worthwhile. the first (and probably last) book i bought on how to make electronic music was crap, it did nothing really but tell me that house music had a 4/4 drum beat. although admittedly, i didn’t know that then. my rambling point is, step by step guides to making this sound and others are worthwhile, and useful. i’ve been listening to alot of 90s stuff recently, like orbitals brown album. its refreshing because if you listen to this stuff, it takes you out of these little genre niches which get born, alot of the seems to come from experimentation with synths and using the ears more than a formula. but i think both approaches are valuable, and the two blur together at points. so expand the collective brain of music. but i should stop writing alot as one word.
I started a sound production wiki on wikia ages ago, but nobody’s done anything with it, least of all myself.
http://sound.wikia.com/wiki/Sound_Wiki
http://sound.wikia.com/wiki/Blueprint <— the basic blueprint of the wiki
as if i’d look at anything with that many banners on
its a great idea though, really
EDIT: it’s a fucking great idea
the idea is indeed very nice, could be a great resource for beginners. but not only ofcause
If anyone wants to donate some cash so I can buy a domain name and set up a proper wiki, feel free
and then… there was silence
… and nobody could hear it…
… but 'twas deafening…
If a subwoofer-smashing skullstep reese bass plays loudly in the forest when no one is around to hear it… do the Ents come out and rave?
.
For some reason, I always thought Ents are junglists, not dubsteppers
loool
sub focus talks about the reese
