Progressive House

This track is finished apart from mastering, I’m well into the whole 80’s synth pop but you should be able to guess where or should I say who the rest of my inspiration came from :smiley:



Check it out, feedback more than welcome…



Clph3R - Synthoetic (Amended Version) by d-aRe

I’m re-uploading another version with the Bass volume lowered, only just heard it on a pair of speakers and it was ripping…



Sorry guys :w00t:

Thanks man, my laptop gave me a hard time at the end but I got it finished…


nice track

good job

liking it :slight_smile: well done

coool track :slight_smile: I really like progressive sounds and this one truly has quality :slight_smile:

I must still be high man, replied to the wrong track :stuck_out_tongue:



Thanks guys, this track was a bit of a challenge and I had to put a lot into it, but I don’t need to say the payoff is well worth the elbow grease you put into a production



Now I need to dig into the realm of getting someone to master it!.. drama

that was amazing, what snare did you use? how can i find something similar?

It has something of a “woosh” effect in it right? its like wooooshSCHMMAAAK!! :smiley:



what kind of bass is that? it was so groovy ! does it have delay effects on it? what is it that makes it so good… thanks in advance! :slight_smile: /love donkey


Hey man,



Thanks for the feedback glad you enjoyed it, the snare was actually 3 layered together and the final one (the swoosh) was from a random sample pack (sorry but I have no idea where!) One was a really phat bottom heavy snare and the other 2 were middle/high which covers the whole spectrum and makes it very prominent in the mix. I have had many people ask me about the bass:



I started with the basics to get something close using sylenth1 synth, here are the settings I began with:



Reasonably simple to make though…



3 x OSC’s



OSC 1 = SAW -12



OSC 2 = SAW -11.90 (-12 but detuned +10 cents)



OSC 3 = SAW =0.10 (flat but detuned -10 cents)



AMP ENV



A = 0

D = 75

S = 100

R = 25



FILTER = LOWPASS



CUTOFF = 0 (all the way down) and maybe a touch of resonance if you want.



FILTER ENV



A = 10

D = 40 (or to taste)

S = 0

R = 100



Send amount = 100 (or a little less if you think its too bright)



Unison (4 voices min) and maybe a touch of chorus, and you should be there.



It won’t matter which synth you use as this can be done on practically any! Once I’d got the main patch above I duplicated it twice did a low cut to remove the bottom end and then panned one to the left and the other to the right, this gave it a more stereo sounding bass feel. Then I resampled my main bass but 1octave lower to give it the grit and subby-ness. It was all in all a big sounding bass used as more of a hook that I used multiple patchs of the same sound at lower/higher octaves and spread left and right. I have used this sound on another one of my tracks and it really pushes out the groove…



I hope this helps ;]
