Dub Bass Sound Design Tutorial in Vital

[@squoblat]

That tip about the harmonics on the sub is gold. You've singlehandedly solved a problem I hadn't been able to classify and fix, less than 3 minutes into the tutorial.

[@psybursonic]

Glad that was helpful 👍

[@devicefuldb5097]

Excellent on the randomization of the Rim hits!! Really effective way to do it. The bass is stellar as well.

[@username40000]

Great tip! Maybe just solo it next time too so we can hear the effect better!

[@maoachillout9699]

Exelent tutorial! Our track is now in a next level!

[@dwah18]

So much control over the sound waves I didn't know possible. Bass and cross stick augments are brilliant!

[@cristianroy21]

1:54 that’s exactly the sound I was looking for I like it a little exaggerated. Thank you

[@psybursonic]

Nice, glad that was helpful! I have an updated Dub Bass video on my channel you might enjoy as well. Cheers

[@shanehudson6969]

That bass is such an ear worm! amazing

[@wndow]

these bass layers are so nice, been struggling finding that guitar tone for so long. BIG UPS

[@EdSoloUK]

that Volcano tip is great, thanks

[@user-es7jj7pt9w]

Very nice, more dub sounds with vital please, great content!

[@piotr803]

Excellent walkthrough

[@slimpickle47]

Just found your channel, absolute good mate!

[@darotm7628]

Wow man, this is something I’m so happy to randomly come across, great preser

[@kylembagley]

What a great tutorial, just what I've been looking for!

[@psybursonic]

Glad it was helpful!

[@Flux_One]

Great tutorial. I followed along but tweaked it to make an early 90s dnb bass 😎

[@psybursonic]

There is an updated dub bass video on my channel with more tips you might enjoy. Thanks for watching 🍻

[@umanoid1523]

Nice bass sounds.Ive been trying to make a vital patch a day and I'm always looking for good dub basses and subs.

[@psybursonic]

Glad you like it!

[@JohnDoe-yr5tg]

Would be great to hear some more dub tutorials shame there’s only the one video on this style but great video appreciated

[@psybursonic]

Is there anything specific about dub you’d like to know more about? I have another dub tutorial in the works!

[@psybursonic]

New Psydub tutorial is live! A style study of Ott.

[@bsmith8166]

Wish we could've seen more of the midi and heard more about how you wrote it.

[@psybursonic]

I'll keep that in mind for future videos!

[@onlymechs]

Enjoyed this tutorial, going to check out vital

[@psybursonic]

It’s such a great synth 🙂 you won’t regret it!

[@hoopla_music]

Awesome video! would love to see more Vital tutorials. keep up the great work dude

[@makaveli4835]

u so chill bro

[@girlinagale]

I purchased a Squier Classic Vibe 50s p bass just to record a dub techno album. I also prefer synth sub basses.

[@sosickhcdrums]

Damn learned bass and has to learn synth. Luckily it somewhat made sense when I looked at the synth like a pedal board. But sheeesh. Had to get funky on bass and on keys.

[@patrickleonard1620]

Really interesting and great track!!

[@neolanbits]

excelent video, really

[@luke-8equalsD]

Quality tutorial bud. Thank you. Gonna use these techniques for some rootsy jungle later

[@piltonizacija]

great video. what reverb do u use on rims/snares? thanx

[@psybursonic]

I like Valhalla Vintage verb, Springs by AudioThing, Pro-R, Goldplate by Kush, and Kilohearts Convolver.... I use them all often. For a classic dub reverb sound try Springs

[@DeadPool632]

Can you do a tutorial on making a reggae dub song like this please

[@psybursonic]

Are you looking for a style-study video? There’s a pretty broad range of things that work to make a song sound dub. Real quick I’d say the elements of a dub track for me are: 1. upbeat “skank” for the chords 2. bouncy bass lines with short repeated notes mixed in. 3. sometimes a pillowy kick 4. Often rim shots on the 2nd and 4th beat 5. generous reverb and delay 
I’ll think about what things might be useful to say about each of these elements over the next few weeks. Perhaps there is a video there. Thanks!

[@psybursonic]

Made a new tutorial for this, it’s now live on my channel. Cheers!

[@danielgreen2348]

I've been trying to create a bass tone like Ott and just have not been able to get there with Kontakt instruments. Thanks for this!

[@psybursonic]

For Ott-style bass tones, you might also try something like EZ Bass. Find a funky Sienfield-ish electric bass sound and then pull out the highs with a filter. Great sound!

[@danielgreen2348]

@@psybursonic I've got my eye on it but it'll have to wait. I just finished shelling out for Komplete. I had to have those tribal drum kits. I hear good things about EZ Bass, though! Have you tried Modo bass? I see a lot of people recommend that as well.

[@psybursonic]

@@danielgreen2348 haven’t tried modo but I’ll check it out. I bet Kontakt has some funky electric bass you could roll off and get similar results with 🙂

[@danielgreen2348]

@@psybursonic You're probably right, I just need to learn how to navigate things a bit better.

[@psybursonic]

I just posted a video where I make an Ott bass. Check it out 🙂

[@sef4610]

Great content! Very insightful. You got a new subscriber.

[@psybursonic]

Thanks 🙏 Glad you found it helpful. I plan to make some more in the near future

[@XVIV1504]

can you make a tutorial on how to make a full track like this?

[@psybursonic]

check out my Ott style study video if you haven't already 🙂, cheers

[@garszmusic]

really niceee more videos dub plsssss

[@andyk3952]

Very informative video. Very well

[@yaggayaggaya9918]

Ayy that last trick is super interesting, thank you! Would it work in Pro-Q3 or Volcano 2?

[@psybursonic]

It will work with ProQ or any filter you have really. I use Volcano cuz the modulation is built right in so it’s a quick setup. I used to use Logic’s midi FX (modulator) to move bands on Pro-Q. Volcano is just easier now.

[@yaggayaggaya9918]

@@psybursonic hey! I used Pro-Q and Abelton's Max4Live LFO, saved it as a preset. works well. Thanks again for the video

[@Skiroy]

SO sick. Is this Sub Bass stereo or completely mono?

[@psybursonic]

I most often make my bass completely mono, and then perhaps add stereo harmonics later on, but the core bass is mono

[@drthorpe8602]

this is brilliant. thanks so much! is there a vital preset file available on your patreon?

[@psybursonic]

Thanks, I’m planning to start a Patreon in the near future but check back in a bit and I’ll include a link in the description with the preset and some samples to try layering.

[@drthorpe8602]

@@psybursonic oh you legend! looking forward to your patreon also

[@BongSquad420lol]

so sick

[@lefender2098]

Could you share the bass layers folders with us

[@psybursonic]

For sure 🤜🤛 I’ll include a link in the description with those and a few more in the next week. So just check back.

[@psybursonic]

There is now a link in the video description. Cheers!

[@andreviana4418]

1st thing.do not make your voice like a bass .leave it natural .eheheh

[@medproject9796]

Hey thank you finally what I found what I was looking for. Now I just need the patch as an syx File. Do you know if this is possible? @psybur?

[@psybursonic]

@@medproject9796 I’ve never tried to convert patches to syx format. But I have an updated dub bass video on my channel and I believe you could follow it and build a great dub bass in most synths by following along 🙂
