Dirty South Sub Bass

1 Nov 2006, 21:45

I'm trying to get some good dirty south sub bass out of my fantom x6 and i found the patch "subsonic" in synth bass, however i notice when i play it, it has some type of filter on it where the wave "oscilates" or somethin....basically you can hear and feel the wave moving "in and out" of its tone and i'm looking for a sub bass patch where it will be solid sub bass without this effect. I'm not familiar with editing patches at all. any suggestions?

sounds like monophonic legato glide to me

check out these buttons:

And turn them off.

Also you can try "poly bass" in the synth bass. Adjust the attack a bit to get rid of this little popping sound that its start off with and it will sound good. Go to my myspace page and check out "Pump your Fist" and listen to the bass on that...

Yeah enzo. Roland wants you to buy the srx dance card which has some sub sounds on it. Supposedly this type of sound is "easy" to make according to Artemio and others on this site. However, I have NEVER been able to make a decent one. Still trying though.

Artemio or any of the other badasses on here have any advice/tips on how to create dirty south sub bass? I'm lookin for bass like this:

http://www.myspace.com/dsrttownmusic

listen to "dub deuce d's" --- that is what i've been tryin to get out of the fantom but i dunno how to get one exactly like that. i messed w/ a few basses on the fantom and filtered out the high end but it seems like it wasn't that true dirty south sub bass like this song. ANY SUGGESTIONS?

tweekbook 3.1 enzo

In this tweekbook 3.1(free) there's a table that lists the RAW WAVES....pick a SINE WAVE, and OCTAVE DOWN the keyboard if you need to, and you'll find that smooth thick bass you're looking for. You may want to adjust the RELEASE setting so it rumbles a little after you get off the keys, and definately set this new "sub bass" patch you're creating to play MONO not poly...I believe this setting is in the PATCH EDIT>PORTAMENTO area. Pitching this sub bass sound up & down like in that song you linked, will cause the bass sound to "WOBBLE" if you DON'T set it to mono

hmmm i'll have to check that out, but at this point i'm not familiar w/ creating a patch or anything

enzo... it's a one tone patch

6 Nov 2006, 23:55

So it's not difficult at all.......there's not a lot of tweeking involved! I'm by no means a tweekmaster, but this was the first patch I DID create, because I, like you, needed some fatty bass. Download the tweekbook 3.1 from here for free, find that wave list, go to the sine waves and find a smooth one, and perform the advised tweeks

well i downloaded the tweekbook, i put those patches on my card, read a few things on that tweekbook...but i guess what i'm missing is the basics....i dunno where to start. how do i start a brand new patch from scratch?

****UPDATE*****

i created a patch w/ some sub bass, but i dunno how to save it w/ the name i want in the category i want!!!

is there some other tweaking i need to do to get the lower notes to hit the same? I notice on songs i listen to, they can get their real low notes to hit and be noticeable on my subwoofer but when i go lower on this patch i made they are hard to notice. Much like that link i posted earlier w/ that song, their low notes hit all on the same level.

Try the cut-off and resonance knobs...but be carefull!!!! To write a patch hit WRITE button>name it>execute it. It automaticaly goes to the USER category. From there you can assign it to the FAVORITES category, so you can access them easily with your other heavily used patches
