PSYTRANCE Bassline in XFER RECORDS SERUM

[@julianlucas07]

Wow. Seriously one of the most comprehensive tutorials I've found relating to Serum ANYTHING. You rock. Keep up the good work. Learning tons!

[@DashGlitch]

Nice tutorial, very concise and well explained! Not sure if you missed it coz of the headphones but the Pulteq EQ has an analog setting which adds an emulation of machine noise from the hardware unit - which may not be desired for a clean psy bass, so when i use it I set that to "off" :)

[@DashGlitch]

p.s. subscribed, keep up the good content

[@andrewmcgill-brown9864]

Hey Dash. Thanks for the feedback! I always forget to turn off the analogue modeling! Thanks for watching xD I enjoy your videos alot

[@DashGlitch]

No worries man! All the best!

[@1sektCC]

Both of you guys are making great videos !! Thanks for sharing your knowledges ! :)

[@xisotopex]

finally someone else that works in arrangement view

[@earthlyng_official4599]

xisotopex don’t most people?

[@BVKER]

Great tutorial, but the drive knob definitely adds saturation to the sounds. You just have to turn it up a lot. When I decide to use the drive knob I map it to a macro, switch the "mix" parameter to "level" and map it to the same macro with a slight bend in the matrix. Now you won't have volume changes while turning the drive macro and you'll be able to easily decide how much drive you want to add to the sound. If you can't hear the effect with your speakers try it out with the basic shapes sine and take a look at a spectrum analyzer 😉

[@MichaelMasonMusic]

Thank you sir for this fine demonstration. I was able to construct around 20 varied presets for myself in Serum with your tutorial. I appreciate your knowledge and experience.

[@MarkN5683]

Thank you! Whether I "make it" or not you just changed my life.

[@ronental6424]

Dude! just saw this video this bassline really bites 😁 I got the exact sound as you did I used the same plugins Transx really gives it life and it worked great on a kick too awesome bro

[@gabrielbsalvatori]

awesome intro track

[@Kiw88d]

You rock man, cheers! :D

[@arianlarijani4088]

I did NOT expect tool posters on the back

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

TOOL is my biggest musical/life influence.

[@MxCrompli]

Tip: Add the distortion effect in the FX tab and put everything to max to make the bass THICC

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Careful with distortion, it can have negative effects on the sub in your track.

[@nesslee4394]

Great vid. thanks! I would like to see a video about phase matching your kick and bass

[@MrVladisavljevic]

Nicely done!

[@algd26]

Oh man this was so helpful, thanks so much !

[@szilardhazi]

Wow that Pultecc plugin sounds really cool!

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Yes it does bro!

[@sdghsadfjadfjd785]

fantastic video thank you

[@sebastianktz3030]

Very nice Tutorial bro! 🕉️ 🔥

[@dendraspace]

Thanks, great tutorial, I have a question though. What alternatives can we use instead of waves plug-ins to process the signal?

[@ThankyouCity]

Thanks brother!

[@AnthonyGrau]

Serum seems an evidence after watching !

[@cryptodough5979]

Hi, thank you for your videos! They've been great. Wanted to ask you if you could make a video on phase matching the kick to this bass like you mentioned in the end of this video?

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Very soon my friend!

[@FedeBattagliero]

Thanks !

[@MrDobleagent]

Could you make a video of how to make a bass line like Talpa style? Lot of glides and that kind of stuff

[@yalilevanon9209]

use the portamento and legato and mono option that gives it a glide, same principles in general with all the psy basses, envelope modulating the cutoff. to hear a bright glide give it a little more sustain and more decay even release at both env 2 and env 1 (amp env) . hope you got me bro and good luck !

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

I'll be doing some other styles like this soon! Thanks mate.

[@fischergreen4134]

Nice video

[@dinociancamerla2931]

Nice one bro, Keep em comming!

[@teuszin]

Nice tutorial, to the point !!

[@Kiw88d]

PS How did you get the wee squares in the upper corners of the audio clips, where you cut off the extra click at the end of the bass...? :) I'm using Ableton 9, can't find them...

[@Kiw88d]

Right click and sjow fades or Ctrl + Alt + F ;=)

[@c02pistolman]

Just an update, I got there in the end. but I just had to zoom in and work it out mathematically which was a bit of a pain but worked. if anyone knows how to get more precise measurements on maschine 2, that'd be great. like to go from 1,1.2,1.3,1.4,2 to 1,1.1.2,1.1.3 ect

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

I haven't used Maschine sorry, but just follow how I do it in the midi clip.

[@acquaindigo3296]

Thank you!

[@docoz6660]

well done, what about adding a bit of resonance on the cutoff? maybe automate it so it's only on the click and not the rest of the bass.

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

DocOz try what you like, if it sounds good it is good!

[@haytam98]

nice poster u got there

[@earthman_]

Howdy teacher 🙋🏼‍♂️ Is that preset „lightly driven saturator“ still available? It’s not listed in Saturn2 🙁

Hello i have been practicing your classes for a while and i would like to know more about the private classes that you are offering. i sent you an e-mail, but am not sure if you received it. thank you for the classes.

[@stereokel]

Is the linking to velocity that much different in sound? I used to render the final sound as audio and use LFOTool as a sidechain for the bassline to get the moving effect.

[@chanex2991]

perfect video! can somebody answer me a noob question?? do you use (sine) sub bass or not? that confuses me a lot..thanks

[@jarokiii329]

When I make sub basses I use a square wave and a low pass filter. That way I can easily get a nice distorted sound because a sine is the most basic form of wave and doesn't really allow for much change using filters etc. Whereas a square wave has lots of harmonics and allows for a very unique sound should you spend the time sculpting it, hope this helped!

[@chanex2991]

@@jarokiii329 hey Thank you!! ok i get that with the waves :) Thanks for the tip! .....so as i understand there are no rules for making a good bass patch (number of oscilators, presence and shape of sub oscilator, layers of bass..)

[@francoisott9873]

Hello, I would like to know what it is used to freeze and crush the track? and what does the plugin Trans-X multi and by that other plugin I could replace it? sorry if it was said in the tutorial but I'm French and I do not understand everything in English it is very hard to learn the MAO especially with tutorials in a language that I do not understand totally. ^^'

[@conchinhasdavid]

Hi bro! Thanks for all the videos! I just have to aks you something.. I saw that you render your bass to it be consistent and thight , but you render all the diferent notes of the bass separately ? Or you just recomend create all the midi sequence and then mix it in sample ? And one more time thanks for all the tuts ;)

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Go for MIDI when you're sequencing, but when you mix it down bounce it to audio and have it set in stone if you can. Cheers - Andrew.

[@conchinhasdavid]

Thanks bro ! Keep up the good work, and good productions ;)

[@UmaRecordings]

Can I please get the preset to this. I tried to follow your steps but I just can’t it to sound like that.

[@cd78]

agree, I tried this in logic and his envelope totally different

[@freak9247]

Good tutorial but please show the result on the beginning of the video...

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

I've started doing this in all my new videos, sorry for that!

[@erikmawcinitt8366]

Hi, you mentioned in this video something about phasing your bass with your kick (I guess you mean the one bass note that overlaps a portion of the kick, I have always been curious about how some artist do that...), what is that about? Do you achieve that by editing audio clips?

[@enigmajourney6367]

I have a video that will answer this

im having s bit of s problem where Im getting a sort of dun-dun-dun sound as apposed to the DUHDUHDUH DUHDUHDUH DUHDUHDUH bass triplet things. I know that'll look mental but not sure how to explain it.

[@PapuGuapu]

Use some sidechain compression

[@eylon951]

Bro plz help i did like you did and i did not got the sound you make. Im very Frustrated

[@remnhem9255]

doesnt phase and random only affect the osc if the unison is higher than 1?

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Nope. It's how I explained in the video.

[@kesinian]

How can I process my bassline in ableton without the additional VST's in this vid?

[@thiagopinheiromusic]

Try Ableton overdrive at 15% :)

[@ElReporte620]

i didn't hear it get played back.

[@bornyhitch1975]

! COOL COOL COOL COOOL COOOL ! oh, a stock sound from serum" COOL! "man, look, i know how to shorten the notes" COOL! "oh, i lowered them a few octaves" COOL! ! COOL COOL COOL COOOL COOOL !

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Cool you watch my videos!

[@ravereviews6853]

I don't get how I'm in exactly the same tempo, same time signature. Put the notes starting and ending in the same position and it just feels really slow and the notes are being held down to long. Is there a way you're putting it in double time or something?

[@ravereviews6853]

I'm using maschine 2 btw

[@ravereviews6853]

Even when I run it at 276 bpm it sounds shit. Arrrgh it's driving me crazy.

[@danquay9504]

Thanks for that, great tutorial I enjoyed listening and learning from you’re channel you made it easy to understand and as makes uplifting trance I certainly need help mastering and advice and certainly get in touch, as song writer and music producer, I certainly need help. I use fruity loops 20 as my daw, but the concept is the same

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Great to hear Dan! Hope it helps you along on your journey! I am not an expert on the mastering stage of finishing tunes, but I might be able to offer some good advice! Cheers

[@c02pistolman]

ah I can see where im going wrong but cant see how to fix it. When you input your notes it says 1 1.1.2, 1.1.3, 1.1.4, 1.2 Whereas mine says 1, 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, 2 The strip above that shows the note sections/bars. Sorry for being a noob haha

[@matteosferradidgeridoo8140]

That's just the zoom, but you'll probably have figured it out by now

[@appusappu6736]

Software name

[@LogicBomb34]

On most of psychedelic track is the same bass line.with all the technology that we have at hand, most artists are copying the same sounds.Creativity went to hell.This is so sad.

[@TheRegalstreak]

Alexa play despacito

[@tuomasheikkinen9251]

It is one of the main aspects of psytrance. It's like saying 808's can't be in a trap beat or smthing.

[@LogicBomb34]

Once there was no limit for this scene, now they limit themselvescopying, lack of musical knowledge, money.to a simple recipe for mediocre quality music@@tuomasheikkinen9251

[@tuomasheikkinen9251]

But if we change the psytrance bassline I'm afraid it will no longer be psytrance or at least not the "standard one". Some artists just prefer to stick to the usual basslines and elements.

[@cd78]

provide the preset. your envelope is totally different in logic even with serum, its confusing your teaching

[@CollectiveIntelligenceMusic]

Pleaseee? I'm not going to upload it, follow the steps, learn from what you can't recreate. A good teacher isn't going to give the answer, but lead you to it. I've shown you the process now interpret it the appropriate way for Logic. Everything inside SERUM should be exactly the same, it'll sound the same in any DAW.

writing trance bass in serum... goes ahead and uses 3 other plugins..

[@liquidatmosphere5528]

as a matter of fact, he would not use any kind of rendering at all, after creating a modulation shape in Serum for a bassline at all, but he just showed you, how it could upgrade and develop) you can simple treat it as a 2 in 1 , my friend.) No reason to be frustraighted, I suppose)
