Guest Promo Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Alright guys. Am looking for some free vst which give nice phat subs so far a lot of the vsts I've got seem a bit weak in the department. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest pantsonmyhead Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 subhuman is effin sick add baxxxpander for even more punishment i find that tweakbench monomate is also good for basic bass rumble for drum subs however try waldorfs Attack thing goes well below the audible range (down to fucking 6Hz!!!) and has some nead modulation for drum sounds also: its oscillators can be tuned to definable pitches for even more technical fuckery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
producer snafu Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 if any of you are smart, and i hope you are, the only way to achieve good sub bass is to use a simple Sine wav from any synth at a low note through a lowpass filter at 200hz you can even do this with cheesy fruity loops synths like the "3X osc" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Aces Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I always start with a sine. I then layer things on top for the squelch. Good times! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a LP Resonant filter and fijank the resonance into self-oscillation territory. Now route your keyboard or MIDI pitch in to the filter frequency. Hold on to your sub-cockle region.

ten fingers ten toes Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 Yah, that's why I suggested the self oscillating filter solution. It's as pure as a sine wave can get! Or at least it should be. Some are unstable, but that can be fun too. The sine on the Moog modulars was all fucked up. Has like ten squiggles in it and the peaks look more like triangles. Might as well just put two triable outputs ;) I wonder (but not enough to check my nord aparently) what analog modeling synths do for sine waves, since analogue synths almost never have pure sine's.

ten fingers ten toes Posted October 11, 2007 Share Posted October 11, 2007 I also just noticed something, why 200hz exactly Prod snafu? My theory is that it's the resonant frequency of testicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've done the filter thing before by mistake and achieved awesome bass... how exactly would I go about routing into the frequency (ie changing the note) though?

I've done the filter thing before by mistake and achieved awesome bass... how exactly would I go about routing into the frequency (ie changing the note) though? Well it depends. It's easy if you have a modular synth, you just plug a card from "pitch" on your MIDI-CV into a port that controls filter freq based on voltage (best if you have a 1v/Octave port). On my Nord Modular, almost all of the filters have a buitl in keyboard track paramter so you can just have the filter freq track the keyboard pitch anyhow. On other synths, I don't know. If you have a keyboard track function that will work obviously, others have different modulation options but you're basically looking to direct pitch to filter frequency. It will also btw, depend on the filter how stable this will track. I can get like 3 octaves I think out of the Dotcom's filter before it really doesn't track pitch acurately, milage will vary depending on your filter.

ten fingers ten toes Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 Well, which software? In Reaktor it'd be dead simple, though I'm not sure if any of its filters will self oscillate. I think your new analog synth might be able to self oscillate but I wouldn't expect any routing options to allow you to control the freq from the keyboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest welcome to the machine Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I'm sceptical at the EXCLUSIVE use of a sin wave. and as for filtering above 200hz, if it was a pure sin, why bother? its the same as saying use a sin wave but dont play above the G below middle C. If the reason for doing this is a timbre thing then surely that must INVITE the concept that the given sin wave sounds different when filtered in that way, ie, its not a sin wave (truly, I mean). because for that filtering to have a timbre effect means that different harmonics are going on above the 'sin's' fundamental? I think subtle distortion can improve a sin sub myself, as well as alot of other little tweaks etc that i'm sure you all know about. I tend to use the muon Tau Pro quite a bit for subs, it's generally nice and punchy with good high harmonics (if you need em). You can start with the preset 'ultralow subbass' and go from there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ten fingers ten toes Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 we already covered that synths rarely produce a true sin wave. just self oscillate a filter guys geez Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
