Trifonic: Synthesis with NI's Massive - Part 1

[@TH3Producer]

Thank you. Finally someone who knows the fundamentals behind Massive

[@colesimlondonuk]

i gota say this has got to be one of the best massive tutorials ive seen in a long time . just what ive been looking for. big up.

[@AmagentaMusic]

Thank you very much, one of the best tutorial I saw on Massive, You don't just give the tweaks but explain what's going on, and that miss on tutorials these days.

[@blackpanther6389]

Very good tutorial. This makes me want to learn Massive. I like how you explain what the parameters do as you use them to not get people confused. Keep makin videos like these.

[@thawizardofahhs]

jesus christ this guy knows his way around the interface!! Thank you for such a comprehensive video.

[@ArGyProductions]

Thanks so much for this tutorial BRIAN :) If anyone is using FL Studio 8 and is having problems viewinig the macro dials, then you need to click the drop down menu from the top left corner on the massive window and Select "Detached" This will allow you to move the window around freely within your FL Studio :) Happy synth making people...

[@carbonvideo]

Thanks for the videos. Very clear explanation for a clearly laid out program.

[@therunner1979]

That deserves receiving the next track I make with your knowledge. Gracias

[@therunner1979]

THANK YOU. Amazing tutorial and you even have a good taste for music. Thanks

[@Onewerdy]

Oh man, I'm stoked to watch this....found you guys on Pandora, and was digging the hell out of your tracks on Soundcloud! You guys are sick, looking forward to learning more!

[@gilmonteverdemusic]

wow great great sound texture, love it

[@DjCyaneyed]

This is easy fun and intelligent learning. HUGE creds for you nextstep audio. you just made my half year ;) thanks alot for theese videos. gives great understanding not just in massive. but the way synthesis works! love it. i need to know all the besics behind every little detail that makes my speakers go WAWA. love it. just love it!

[@zacheray]

thank you, THANK YOU. Massive is so great for those raw sounds.

[@TheNonWho]

very nice, thank you for ur suggestions i'll defo try it next time

[@KelseyBDJ]

That's a meaty bassline. Awesome tutorial. Cheers.

[@mrfuckwithyawsister]

thank you very much for this tutorial, what I like to do is moving the daft filter to the 2nd filter, make it seriell, and put a lowpass filter on the cutoff with a performer on it, it sounds the same but you can draw patterns in the performer. I hope this helps someone. but thanks for this tutorial it was really helpful!

[@DJ_Colossal]

Just written a killer bass line using tips from this vid. Nice one,

[@poindexter3317]

brilliant tutorial - totally immersive...

[@tomphillips107]

this is a great video alot of help thanks for sharing.

[@spoomusic]

Thanks man. Excellent tutorial.

[@discododoll1047]

AMAZING TUTORIAL. thank you so much, will you be doing any more dirty bass ones like this?

[@CuttaBoiRecordings]

Very well done, great tutorial! Peace

[@RyutoHigashi]

Terrific Video

[@Phrakture]

hehe I was hoping you guys would make a NI Massive tutorial after seeing the FM8 one, this was really helpful!

[@Redpen14]

great tutorial thanks

[@halonone]

@iluluvsbreaks Thanks, I think I was trying to create an automation clip while it was on sync and that's why it wasn't working. Once I turned that off it was all good!

[@nextstepaudio]

@vitalremainsdrummer hmm I have not had problems with the sound being weighted too much to one side of the stereo field. In actual productions I tend to layer basses and have my lowest layer/sub be mono. The mid and higher bass/lead sounds tend to be hi-passed and more distorted and more stereo. I hope that helps

[@nextstepaudio]

@LucidSpore I bought Komplete 5 a year ago and upgraded to Komplete 7 in more recent times. I highly suggest buying it as part of Komplete 7. It is a very good deal and better value than buying it as a standalone.

[@rezOnanceUK]

Nice tutorial!

[@wobbygongman]

Thanks!

[@nextstepaudio]

@iRubeGoldberg the wavetables are part of massive and unfortunately you can't make your own. I don't know whether they are mathematically generated or sampled wavetables. Probably a combination of both. If you want to sample or draw your own wavetables you can do it with NI's Absynth

[@darbomusic]

amazing, thanks man

[@halonone]

This was an amazing tutorial. Do you know of a way to automate the macro knobs if you don't have a midi keyboard? My keyboard is out of reach of my PC at the moment, but for testing purposes (and future reference) I was curious of any other ways to turn those knobs without syncing them to a midi device.

[@AndreDeSatterlee]

NIN haha glad he's not forgotten

[@zZcamreedZz]

Thanks for this. You Rock!

[@DjBoomClassic]

Thx!!

[@6000bpm]

thanks man has explained a lot for me :)

[@misterE310]

the different wave table positions have been sampled my friend, it is not mathematically being generated but sounds close enough.

[@rinotah]

great tut - as usual - strange microphonin, thx

[@DJDARKSTEPZ]

hey matey, cool video!!! erm where can i get hold of sinevibes transformer and is it free??

[@nextstepaudio]

@pppeeeppee cool, I'll consider that

[@Kraev369]

"so thats a bit harsh of a sound, but i like that" I was just thinking the same thing, really great tutorial man, been looking for something like this. Thank you for sharing =] btw did you purchase massive on its own or in a bundle. Im thinking of getting a bundle but not sure.

[@friendlyflavour]

is there a second part to this ? cheers

[@djpanikdnb]

does anybody knows where to get that "transformer" plug in please ? i never heard of it , thx for your help ;)

[@mixman29]

Dope

[@Raul111591]

how would you playback to test out the sound off a mac, what button would you use?

[@omborworks]

Anybody know what the "Transformer" plug in he used at the end was? I could't find it from the name alone, does anybody know what company makes it? Thanks! :)

[@HiddenTechnique]

How can i get the wt position moving without linking it to midi?Dont have a midi keyboard:/

[@Gtar43]

Hey! I'm curious as to where I could get a hold of that sinevibes VST you're using. It doesn't seem like they're making it anymore but are there any other comparable ones?

[@smokeizfire]

Thanks! You sure you dont work for NI? Im impressed.

[@tysonification]

I believe Sinevibes discontinued Transformer.. Do you have any other recommendations for Waveshapers (rree or not)? Using Ableton on Mac

[@uberblabar]

where can i get the transformer plug? thanks :)

[@DjGajjit]

how do i use massive thru ableton live 7?

[@kilo-1337]

I had a fucking eargasm by the end there

[@DarkElixirDubstep]

dude...how have you got that orange thing in the background?? like so you can see the wave?? im on the newest logic with the newest massive...so help :D hehe!! :D

[@cprovenzo]

Curious: what was the oscilloscope plugin in the background?

[@nextstepaudio]

@Preeny666 what keyboard do you have hooked up to it? There are many variables, so it's hard to know what is causing the problem

[@OwenHillJr]

Wow

[@nusphere]

Phantaztiko!!!!!!!

[@yorickslang]

hero

[@alexkid1]

I think all oscillators in massive are generated by itself. I don't think anything is sampled at all. I could however be terribly wrong.

[@thegreatdeno]

@pppeeeppee okay

[@DarkElixirDubstep]

@DarkElixirDubstep TELL MEEEE

[@patstcool0805]

i have to turn the volume up to hear you, then i have to turn the volume WAY up to listen to the sound!

[@thegreatdeno]

@pppeeeppee nope :D

[@thegreatdeno]

@pppeeeppee are you and b00y4kk4 having a fake KZbin argument?

[@RobiRoadkill]

did he just say serial? series -_-

[@daleiloveqian]

sounds like Transformers noises :)

[@mihu.]
