ceiling Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Anyone got any tips for getting this quivering acid sound? Starts at around the 0.30 mark. Sounds like most of the jidomatix tracks were made using renoise but I'm just having a real hard time trying to get that acid sound and I'd sure love to make a few songs in that vain. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ml__2W6ITFQ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr.Sensi Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 Sounds like fm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceiling Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 Not the sound itself but the rhythm and the technique. Is It just 1/12? If I was to make that rhythm on Renoise how would I go about that basically? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stockfish Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 maybe you could extract the groove from some break and gate some notes, s&h on waveform/pitch/filter/fm-modulation. or maybe midi bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psn Posted June 7, 2016 Share Posted June 7, 2016 16th notes alternating with 8th notes. The 8th notes are long enough to allow the FM index EG open up fully and let all the noisy sidebands through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8th notes are long enough to allow the FM index EG open up fully and let all the noisy sidebands through. Yeah I hear that now, kinda gated and then released on some notes. One final thing, a lot of these acid parts sound pretty atonal to me. I tend to kinda go over the top and throw in loads of different notes but is it more about just staying on one note and using more rhythmic techniques like portamento, gate etc?

kausto Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 you also have to use non-integral ratios for operators to get these inharmonic timbres Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yea acid is all about the slide/accent programming imo. Also throw in some half-note steps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
