GYDRA 'Hearing Damage' Serum Bass Tutorial

[@ambedo_bass]

Hey man just wanted to say that i really appreciate your sound design tutorials. You are one of the few youtubers that really explain why you are making different decisions when building a sound, so viewers can not only learn how to make your patch, but how to use these tools in the future for their own sounds. Keep up the great work. Would love to see a deep dubstep tutorial

[@colingathard8201]

As a new producer learning sound design has been somewhat troubling for me. Every single one of your tutorials are to the point. Clear. Well explained. You answer all questions before you're asked them it's actually ridiculously impressive. You have the biggest sub right now. Thank you for giving such clean cut awesome tutorials. Massive like.

[@arturgopro8797]

How is your progress mate?

[@wakegary]

Another killer vid. Excited for your next live stream. Cheers

[@CykotiK23]

Much Gratitude for your Tutorials!

[@fonnzer]

A very good tutorial, well explained, with technical details that actually make me understand how does Serum work, you are a great teacher man!

[@MonsterDubClub]

Sounds absolutely spot on. Cheers dude, love the new intro graphic too

[@artfxdnb]

You're welcome, good to hear.

[@Numocron]

Wow man this is such an awesome tutorial I love it. Big up ARTFX.

[@079Mayhem]

Yoo i bought my first daw 2 weeks ago and i've been trying to make that type of sound since then, with no succes ofc xD I finally got that sound so thank you mate! keep doing what your doing

[@artfxdnb]

You're welcome!

[@jon.wignall]

Great tutorial. Like the idea of using multiple amps and eqs. Will definitely use that idea 👍

[@Royvdl]

First off I want to say thank you for making these tutorials, they really are made well and your explanations are on point. That being said, I this is my 3rd serum tutorial by you I have followed and in none of those cases was I able to recreate the sound you made. I followed the steps, set all the dials to the correct positions but it still sounds different, close, but definitely not nearly as good as it should. Could you maybe share the presets you create in these videos so we can download them and play with them?

[@Thefi5thdnb]

Great tutorial

[@DimaSkill]

Nice video ARTFX! I tried to recreate this bass a few times but I didn't get so similar sound as you got. Great job! If you wish, make a bass from 44s drop of Mizo - Dust Devil, such a crazy sound :)

[@artfxdnb]

Will have a look, thanks!

[@kevrat1]

Yea, nice bass. Also wish

[@Liam0505]

Also really dig Mizo's basses. Would be great to learn how to create such basses.

[@davetherave6197]

This is great thanks man

[@lurkmaster]

Love your videos man, thanks for doing what you do. One suggestion i have is to maybe make the size percentage of serum bigger so its easier to see

[@Michaelsongsfull40]

a tutorial on the main bass from Kyrist & Document One - Move This Way would be super cool or maybe those artificial things that travel in the stereo field around in the high frequency area

[@artfxdnb]

Added to the request list!

[@monsters8730]

@@artfxdnb oooh, may I ask for a short making-of of the synth at the 0:44 min mark in IHR & Merikan - Giant Growth ???

[@pimmen3]

Could you do a tutorial on the bassline of bigger faster stronger by State of mind? loving your tutorials!

[@somerandomguy7088]

Your videos help so much improving my sound design, thx man! A Tutorial for Synths like Fraksure & Danger - Under Control would be awesome!

[@EFFECTA_]

Very accurate!!!

[@Voyager-42]

A bass tutorial for State Of Mind - Shellshock Richochet would be super cool!

[@007Jefke1]

Hey, really digging your videos and streams! Keep up the great tutorials! I have a request: Could you perhaps make a tutorial on the squeeking sound at 1:16 and the buildup with that sound at 2:50 in Delta Heavy - Anarchy I really want to make a sample in that genre!

[@artfxdnb]

Added to the list!

[@007Jefke1]

@@artfxdnb Yay! Excited! 😁

[@inmosh]

Dude, I know what will bring you many views. If you make a sound like in Doom - BFG edition song. The lead synth sound. It starts somewhere near third minute.

[@artfxdnb]

I'll see what I can do!

[@nickskywalker2568]

You should also check that video from the guy himself, it's really interesting! kzbin.info/www/bejne/i2Wpf3WDj9ikqLs

[@pest5373]

Isn’t that sampled from a chainsaw or something

[@inmosh]

@@pest5373 Probably. Maybe not 100% sampled but morphed into a sine wave and noise. Mike Gordon used a plugin he mentioned it in GDC talk. But he talked about morphing chainsaw into guitar, I'm not sure about synth, though it sounds like he did.

[@wakegary]

You're so right! IDDQD

[@EcxaByte]

Very helpful :) I would really like to see a recreation of the drop reese bass in Des McMahon - Breathe In, can't really recreate it with its rolling and gritty character

[@Michaelsongsfull40]

thank you so much :)

[@DJRANK_F]

Anychance For Maya Apache Serum sound bass tutorial ?

[@georgebamford5603]

love to hear a state of mind bigger faster stronger bass design!!

[@vlad-kat]

more gydra basses, plz

[@Timesend]

I love it

[@oli_malware]

Absoutely love this tutorial thank you! However whenever I add the multiband compressor it seems to give me quite extreme clicks, how can I avoid this?

[@TheoVoidTV]

You should do one on the bass from G. Jones - Fuck what you heard.

[@t0asted611]

Could you give the main synth from Upgrade - Cali Pots a go? It sounds so angry

[@oral-d4451]

Would be amazing if you can give us a tutorial on how to design those massive upgrade-style basses like in his track Godzilla. Upgrade's music is a biiiig motivation for my producing :)

[@Coldtrik]

Hi men... The macro "Basic Shaper", where you took it out?, you are missing more things to say in the tutorial... The sound I'm creating, it's not like what you do...

[@artfxdnb]

If you don't even know about the most basic wavetable (not a macro) in Serum, then I would advise you to first watch some videos about the basics of Serum and how the plugin works, before diving into something more advanced like designing a bass patch yourself. Basic Shapes is the most basic wavetable in Serum because it contains the most fundamental waveforms you would see in most other synths. This is an advanced tutorial which is aimed at people who know how Serum works, not at beginners.

[@IamJeshua]

More tutorials man

[@KloseEnkounter]

very helpful

[@merakidj6455]

should do a video on how to make the Prolix - Originate bass ;-)

[@avvakuum]

Oh finally mother Russia bois kicked in

[@artfxdnb]

I care for my Russian viewers! 😄

[@JobjobFrog]

@@artfxdnb we care for you 2 buddy. Nice works ! Keep up !!

[@benishark]

halftime tutorial? :)

[@russellb6249]

I neevr get it to sound the same somehow even after following exactly as shown. CBA producing anymore

[@artfxdnb]

Let me give you some advice, never watch tutorials to make an exact sound, it usually doesn't work. A sound is just a sound and it is everything around it that will make it shine. What you should use tutorials for, is learning things about the production process or sound design process itself and then apply that to your own productions. Hunting for tutorials and copying them to each value specific is imo not going to teach you much, instead, try and understand why certain parameters are used.

[@Rickaby1224]

Please try recreate the bass from Stompz - Step to on Soundcloud

[@cashew_music]

make something from MATRODA

[@artfxdnb]

Anything in particular?

Could you do some Virtual Riot basses? Thanks :)

[@Ozzy-87]

Close but not exact, needs more saturation

[@artfxdnb]

I know it's not exact, that would be very hard without context of the track. I don't think it needs more saturation, you need to remember that the bass sound in the original is layered with noise or cymbals and probably other percussion giving the impression of it having more high frequencies, plus the additional gain boost that was added during the mastering stage helps as well.

[@09Ozymandias]

I heard it needs more cowbell. (only joking!).
