    Hi Everyone

    How to create the following bass starting to play at 2:51 min?

    I'm really inspired by the bass sounding powerfull and so pumping.

    Thanks y'all in advance

    Here for you if you should use serum or have it then you can record the one shot bass with a tuner beforehand which tone position it is and then insert it into serum have fun with it

    That's pretty much what it should look like for them

    Wow, very impressing. You literally designed the same bass sound.

    I use Serum.

    The website says that That page doesn't exist.

    Would you please upload the image again?
     
  7. The picture was just uninteresting, it only showed the waveforms of the same sub bass, I designed them so they were both the same, but I can still upload a picture for them

    The trick isn't sidechain compression/ducking, but rather an octave note and some portamento/glide. Make the synth monophonic and add portamento/glide (to taste) and add a "backbeat" high-note (octave up).
    I lowpassed and highpassed a single saw oscillator for this example below, but you can use any waveform and filtering (and saturation) of taste. You can even do it with a sine and saturation and filtering. The main thing is the "pumping" octave note, which seems to be what you are after.
    I used the freeware Surge XT for this quick test below:

    Oh I thought that you wanted to show Serum sound design settings to create the sound

    Would you share the preset please?

    You are spot on.

    Thank you so much for sharing the screenshot. Very very useful trick.

    Edit : I already created the midi and it already sounds like the original, especially after spicing up with some saturator. Thank you again : )

    100% agree with @Baxter. :yes:

    I think another way to do it could be modulating the pitch one octave with tempo-synced LFO. That would be master tune in Serum. LFOs can be fine shaped and you could further modulate something like filter or even drive with one.. just for fun :)
