    Hey guys! So I Been trying to make this bass sound but I just cant make it right

    Here is the video


    I Have some hardware synth like moog little phatty, ultra nova and basstation but I don't get even close.

    I got something similar with a plug in but still is not the same.
    Could someone help me? I don't care what synth I just need to see how this sound is made.
    Thanks in advance

    Maybe a FM synth (Nemesis or FM8) could do the trick?

    Serum has some factory presets that sound almost identical to that. And so does the Nexus2 Deep House Expansion. You're talking about that deep Bassline about 1:20 in, right? If you're talking about that percussive-like sound around 1:18 in then that's not bass, that's percussion. But NI Maschine has an expansion that's called "Raw Voltage" that has a bass preset in it called "Dead" that sounds just like that. Hint: listen to the expansion's demo called "Shifting clouds". Actually, I wouldn't be surprised if the if almost, if not all, the sounds in this song, were produced with that maschine expansion.

    I wish you luck. But it is a very common sound.

    Cheers, mate! :wink: :mates:

    Definitely sounds FM to me. Very Lately Bass-ish. (http://www.synthmania.com/Yamaha%20TX81Z/Audio/C15%20%20LatelyBass.mp3) One of the most famous bass patches of all time.
    You can make an approximation of that sound in FM8 or a TX81Z/DX11 (or just about any other 4OP FM synth that have multiple waveforms available).

    Yeah this bass definitely has some FM character to it, so I would use Serum for this sound.... i've made a preset that sounds pretty close to it, just not sure if I can share the zippy link here so hit me up in PM :wink:

    The raw voltage bass sound I'm referring to is heard in this demo from NI's official Soundcloud. The bass is more "longer" than in the one in the video, and less of of "plucked" sound. However, this can be easily resolved by lowering the release and/or sustain, and/or decay, thus making it more of a plucked sound. Otherwise just play shorter note lengths. But it's pretty close to it. I could not open the Serum preset either. It says it was made with a newer version of serum. I'm on mac and I think I'm using the latest. 1.04 is the version I'm using. Haven't checked the back at the website in a while.

    Also, for serum, check out Sounds to sample's "Deep House Presets For Serum". That sound bank alone has several bass presets that sound very close to the sound you want.
    For reference: http://www.soundstosample.com/info/Sounds_To_Sample/Deep_House_Serum_Presets/1102

    Cheers, mate. :wink: :mates: :)

    Checked out the download link and preset... everything seems to be working good, so i'm not sure if its the older version of Serum you're using :dunno: I'll grab screenshots of the preset and post them here later :wink:

    You'll find OSC 1+2 waveforms in Serum's 'Analog' WT Folder...... hopefully this helps you get the sound you're after :thumbsup:

    It will be ok if you create the same preset with the demo version from the website? Is a very old version as you can see... Shit man Im getting crazy here! I check Maschine but you don't get even closer :(

    Really don't know dude :dunno: would be great if the preset worked :( its the closest sound I have in Serum, maybe check back over the screenshots to see if you missed anything.... or if that fails follow Claytonr's advice and have a look into Sounds To Sample's "Deep House Presets For Serum".... you will definitely find some great bass presets very similar to the sound you're after.... best of luck :thumbsup:

    Really don't think I can install the demo dude, as it will probably start messing things up with presets and newer versions i've installed :( Don't forget to adjust the Unison controls in Global Tab :wink:
