Hey
For days now i'm trying to understand how to achieve this...sound or "effect" on the bass like here:

Like the Bass going in and out...anyone could share a thought on that?


Thank you!

 

Sidechain compression. YouTube it. It's that breathing or pumping sound you want. It's easier for you to watch it than I can explain it.

 

get yourself a saw wave with a sine an octave lower. stretch some midi notes for the length of one bar. (4 kicks)
Open up a sidechain compressor, use your kick (or a second trigger channel) as input for the compressor. big ratio, short attack, half release. voila.

It's the most used, and most common method to get a pumpy ducking sound.

Depending on witch DAW you use I suggest aswell that you have to go and youtube it..

 

Or or the easy way ->use Xfer LFO Tool's sidechain presets

But you better learn how to use sidechain compression, it's very useful

 

if you want the lead i did post a preset pack for dune thats got it in and yea 2 saws sidechain compression.

 

ya it's Side-chain compression Side-chain the bass to the kick to a compressor and every time the kick comes on it will trigger the compressor and pull the level down

 

Like everyone else said, sidechain compression, find a tutorial for your DAW on You Tube, I think it's the most common tutorial of every tutorials

Basically you put your compressor on the bass channel and kick is triggering compressor every time it hit, so bass is compressed on every 4 beat if it's the case, in other words when the kick is playing the bass is ducking

 

Thank you all!

 

if you use fruity you could just slap a peak controller on your kick and send your bass to it

 

That part of the track reminds me of Robbie Rivera's Funkatron
