class tutorial thanks

[@mabe2959]

the basic fm house bass sounds totally different in my ableton

[@TheMursol]

Josh can you guide us on how to achieve low groove like Wheats, Niteplan how they layer the basslines and still manage to get a darker vibe what is the science of the notes they use. It seems whenever i layer somertjing doesn‘t feel dark even if it‘s filtered. I struggle so much with that and can‘t even find a good tutorial on this kind of style.

​@@synthohubeducation even so..why limit your audience

[@cw-lr2sd]

Where did you get that wavetable house bass preset? Cheers

[@synthohubeducation]

Just an Ableton stock one

[@tylersneed7986]

I think your ableton stock preset sounds amazing! I used the same one and copied your settings and mine still sounds like I have an extra oscillator or something and it doesn't sound good. What is your second oscillator shape?@@synthohubeducation

[@beatmeater5225]

@@tylersneed7986 It could be plugins on his master channel making it sound different

[@rickholmes4924]

Sometimes I feel trolled when I watch videos like this. The instructor will be like "Here is it with XYZ" turns knob "and here is it without". Im just over here like ohhhhhh yaaaaa totally thats night and day (I hear literally no difference)

[@NFLBiz]

Get that hearing up.

[@friedchicken4326]

youtube compresses videos to make them easier to stream and also, invest in good headphones

[@lukasz4781]

I find is better to use transpose in scale. You choose root and play just white keys😂
