Sound Design - Deep Reese Bass Tutorial

In this video, I show you how to create a deep, thick Reese bass which will set a powerful foundation for your track. This versatile patch can go from clean and deep all the way to growling and bright. I'll show you how to make it and fine-tune it in this sound design tutorial.
When designing basses, it is helpful to listen on Headphones and Studio Monitors as this will give you a more accurate understanding of the tone and texture of the sound.

[@AldinPereira]

Exactly!!

[@elilox1083]

I was literally hoping that you'd make a tutorial on how to design reese bass. You've made my day and my week. Appreciation all the way from South Africa 🙏🏾.

[@Chillabytes]

I’ve learned more from In The Mix in the past few months than I have in almost 4 years messing with a DAW with no prior knowledge. Thanks for always getting straight to the essentials.

[@kylevallely7521]

You're amazing, and thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world. You're truly changing lives in these dark times. You may think a simple reese tutorial is nothing, although acquiring knowledge can lead to someone having days of happiness. Thank you.

[@jarednewman5966]

This is just the most delightfully wholesome sound design. I love it. It’s still educational, engaging, and I love that you show that there are still a lot of options

[@overture6962]

Sound design tutorials are the ones that make us use our creativity the most! Music is not only about using presets, it's also about creating your own sounds, which is harder to learn, but leads to incredible results.

[@louishope7656]

Ok

[@epicfuturehouse]

@@louishope7656 Your comment made my day

[@InVerSemusic93]

Even after producing for 2 years and being a fairly experienced musician I still find a ton of useful stuff out of this guy's tutorials. Very cool

[@MisterShufu]

Dude I tell you. I subbed a while ago and really love your content. TodayI needed a Reese Bass and today you posted exactly what I needed. It was destiny ;) .Thank you man!

[@ARZYXO]

Sir, i am following you since 2 years and this lockdown gave me real chance to see your videos carefully and actually puting everything to test I am really very happy my songs are improving day by day its getti soothing to ears, no problem with bass getting distorted, new ideas, new creation. Thank you for putting this content for free with all my heart I appreciate you for making tutorial videos. I am sounding better with the songs I produce probably a little more practicing and will be good to put my songs on streaming sites.

[@emrazum]

I feel like lately the trend is LOTS of stereo bass info that would never translate in a club system, maybe because no one is going to clubs anymore and it's better to just give people great headphone/car listening experiences. mono compatibility is becoming increasingly irrelevant, only stores and bad phones don't have stereo systems

[@sixthfloormemories1566]

I think it also has to do with a misconception on what 'keep the bass mono' is meant for. It's a good idea to keep frequencies in the low end mono (and controlled!) in that sense because that doesn't translate well anyway (you don't really perceive sub bass for example as very directional). But that's not the same as keeping all bass instruments full frequency in mono. A bit of wideness in the lower mids of bass synths and such sounds great!

[@LEILIhousemusic]

You should still care a bit for mono compatibility. Many people own bluetooth speakers that play music in mono.

[@nitroanilinmusic]

I mean, simple M/S EQing go a long way and it's rather quick.

[@Penthox]

Cant you just fix that by having club systems force the bass into mono?

[@tbone2646]

I always thought the reason for mono bass was to do with vinyl pressing being physically incompatible with stereo bass? Most club systems run mono anyway asfak

[@WighTShadoW]

I love the look of KNOWING he made a good sound at 3:35 - he is so humble but when you hit it just right..... you know. I learn so much from this guy. Ty.

[@m3thod166]

Always wanted a good Reese bass, thank you👏🏼

[@LEILIhousemusic]

That last message was inspiring, soothing and refreshing. Musicians should remember that production is art.

[@Protonaut]

I've been following this channel for a while already, but these synth sound design vids are my favorite thing you've done. I'm trying to incorporate more synths into my songs (indie rock I'd say) and while I often have the sound I want in my head, I can't always get it with my synth. This really helps me to understand the instrument more and more.

[@edoardo7848]

These sound design tutorials are amazing, keep doing them! Often I hear sounds I like in music, but generally I have no idea how to recreate them.

[@jackcarlu]

I owe you almost everything I know since I started to produce my music. I have no words to thank you for what you did and what you are doing. You deserve all the best in this world!

There is so many people who feel plain thankful - myself included.

Thx That helped a lot! I was using presets and tried to make my own but never really new how to make a good Reese bass 1. like btw

[@TuzXMr]

These sound tutorials are great! Would love to see more.

[@xunnyyy]

good choice of wavetables but i would cut the lowend and replace it with a subbass and "direct out" it... it doesnt change the sound alot but makes it much cleaner because its mono below ~150 hz

[@inthemix]

Good idea

[@xFanXAnime]

You can also use maximus or other plugins where you can manipulate single frequency ranges. In maximus, you can just take the low frequency band and put it to mono. Mitght be better, might be worse, depending on what you tryna get.

[@nathanbegel4505]

@@xFanXAnime A sub is more predictable, but I also use maximus sometimes to make the bass mono

[@DymolBeats]

I’d suggest using A1STEREOCONTROL it has the option which is called “safe bass” and anything below 150 will be left in mono but you can adjust it however you want to

[@nathanphillips2560]

Thank you, the pace you go at is so easy to follow and you explain things sooo well im actually learning:)

[@djcj]

bro i have been looking for quality "non screechy dubstep" serum tutorials since I finished every single synthhacker one... you are a legend. thank you!

[@ZlakEdoras]

Quick tips related to this video 1) If you have a killer sound but wanna make it into a less stereo sound without moving anything in the serum, go to the global tab, and under the unison, you can change the width of Osc A (left) and Osc B (right), so dont have to have a dedicated effect for it in mixer channel . 2) There are different types of unison under the Global tab>Unison>Mode (says linear by default, so changing it will make the unison arranged differently, you can check how it is arranged by changing the linear to something else, and then tweaking the detune knob and see how the lines have aligned differently. Random mode is freaky and cool XD . 3) If you want a even thicker sounding tone , under the osc tab, under Osc A, unison was 5 in this video, same for B, but having one of the unisons as odd number and another at eve number, say 4 and 5, it'll create a thicker sound. . 4) You dont have to use 4x quality on the serum right away if it's being very heavy on cpu, just don't forget to put it on before exporting. . Hope this helps!

yes that was actually very usefull

1:45 true. in some genres using a wide and rich bass is essential...such as synthwave where most of the times we don't even use a sub bass to keep it as authentic (as i like to call it) as possible
