    PSychedelic Synths in Reason?

    in Music Making and Production/Industry

    Posted

    Ahoy all!

     

    Im trying to figue out how to get really psychedelic synthy sounds. ive used subtractor & maltrom, using their LFO's, Oscilators, Filters..ive even used add on devises like delay, chorus/flanger, etc

     

    You guys have any tips? Trying to get soft trippy synths going, similiar to stuff Silicon Sound, Protoculture uses?

     

    Thanks B)

    Ok psycho :)

     

    I did some research and i found some interisting tutorials on Reasonfreaks

     

    Here is the link for the tutorials list. They teach how to use the reason compressor, a making a song step by step, a bass and kick tutorial too

    Very interesting stuff

     

    http://www.reasonfreaks.com/modules.php?op...ials&file=index

    By the way, this whole site is very usefull for Reason users. There is also a forum try to use some search there or ask the question B)

    Making a groovy psychedelic bassline

    Its not exactly like that. There is no standart psytrance bassline imo. This example you told is just one of the many forms you can do a bassline

     

    I guess that psychocell was asking tips for more heavy powerfull basslines, and they are usually not made with Audiorealism.

    and besides he cant use that on Reason, because VST doesnt work on Reason.

    Its a standalone program

     

    Reason native synths is capable of doing great basslines on its own.

     

    There is the controversial tip of creating a sub-bass.

     

    What you do is to pick up a bass and decide in wich key will be, and then you do the line, edit, etc untill you get what you want

     

    Now to give this more power you create another excatly equal bassline track.

    So, now you have two identical basslines playing together. What you do now its to edit the frequencies of both in order they "match" each other.

    Basically you cut all the low frequencies and give life on the mid and high freq of one bass and cut all the mid and high freq and leaving only the low freq of the other bass.

     

    Also it is pointless to use a bass patch whose energy lies only below 40 Hz, because most home systems will not play sounds that low in frequency and thats mainly unwanted sounds. so take care of that area and cut, if it has too.

    You need to make sure bass has a lot going on in the 70-90 Hz frequency range, because thats where the punch sound is.

     

    Remenber that everytime you layer something, you should wacth for the frequencies crash...also have in mind that this is a complicated operation. You can really screw a bass line doing that, but some people can do magic using this stuff :o

    Awesome tip Stalker! :)

     

    So must i have 2 subtracotrs open with the same bass patch?

    Edit the frenquencys using the filter 1&2 to get rid of the low frequencies, and tweak the mids and highs to sound better?

     

    And how would i know what the frequency range is of the bass patch?

     

    Thanks B)

    Sorry what i meant is.....

     

    Can i cancel the sliders and knobs that have been assigned to parameters by default?

     

    In otherwords can i clear the knobs and sliders so i can use them accordingly, because when i try assign a knob that already been used, it will tweak out 2 paraters at the same time?

     

    Any help or ideas ppl?

    Thanks
