basically the bass line follows the kick drum. watch the video I posted earlier.
its not that hard. match your bass to the beats, then pick a bass sound that goes with what you are trying to create, rinse repeat.

 

Her problem is not related to rhythm. Her question is about other aspects of theory.

 

Of course, if someone whose ears are being trained, knows what he's trained.

Have you ever asked yourself who are the people who wrote those notes?

solfeggio guys are among the lesser-known people in music. This has a reason. Even if they read a piece for a thousand years, they will never understand how that piece was written.

 

There are billions of ears on the planet from different musical cultures, but why do they never help people to make a good song. Even if those ears are trained, they will not be able to do anything special. The ear is an auxiliary device, not the main one.

In most musical cultures, the ear is considered adequate and as you can see nothing great comes out from them.

 

@Joe Taco Posting warez links here (even from sister site) is prohibited.

But as someone who no one approves of me here, I give you a piece of advice:
These tools are created by musically illiterate people who have just little bit of coding knowledge. Do not trust these tools at all. These tools do not help but mislead you.

Yeah, that must be it. No chance I'm just a beginner who has a question

 

Sounds interesting, I'll try it, thanks!

 

What exactly do I see / what's the reason for posting this screenshot?

 

@MusicTurtle
You look so much like my cousin. I don't want you to be misled.
Please don't use those tools.

 

This is the most important part of your sentences, which happens to be OP's question, but how?
Random methods are usually highly welcomed by producers because in terms of notes they don't know what they want and what they're doing.

 

Sorry about the link but I stand by Melody Sauce 2 just posted yesterday on sister site! If you're doing House, Techno or any type of dance music, this will give you ideas and inspiration which sounds like what you and many people struggle with, including myself sometimes. If it was easy, we would all be Superstars!
Also, I agree with “mino45" about “Scale Mode” in Ableton Live and other tools available nowadays that make things simple. He has some really good points. You don’t really need to learn music theory anymore with the tools available today. One last note, remember that in dance music, the “groove” is the essence of what makes people dance and it can be found in the bass-line or the drums which is pivotal when making dance music. You’ll know you’ve got a groove when you start to feel your body moving!

 

I know what you mean! I have that always with tracks like KAS:ST & Gordo - Leaving Earth

for example.

 

Every great theory musician has learned solfege you moron. It's mandatory. Any thoroughly trained musician in theory will tell you that but you know NONE. Do you even know why they teach it mandatorily as part of theory? You are an idiot. Talk to someone else. I feel dumber for reading what you think you know.

You're wrong! Solfege is worthless! Because music isn't even real. That's a fact, Sextus Empiricus already exposed this in his "Adversus Musicos". There's no way a musician could even exist, much less make music using just their ears, you hear me? This whole thread is based on insanity, there's no such instrument called "bass". Trust me, theory is the way for you to understand the music of the spheres! That's the true music.

(Foster impersonation attempt).

 

Basically what Articstorm says - it's a fast way to get ideas.

Although looking for basslines the patch's sound might not inspire, the sequence might.
And I happened to choose Nexus because I was just going through Melodic Techno & Melodic Techno 2 .... because I just found out I was missing those and downloaded them... because I was checking for someone who had a problem loading patches from them.

Of course it applies to many many others, but Nexus IS pretty fun
