White noise

hey guys



i was wondering how to create a good white noise effect in ableton, the sound kinda made popular in dubfire and fergie tracks just after the beat kicks in. im thinking there could be a sidechain compressor on it also as it ducks in and out of the kick usually



any help would be great



cheers

Hi,

I usually just use a white noise sample with side-chaining to give you the sucking sound. I alos route this sound in ableton to an auto filter and open up the filter to creat tension in a track when it kicks back in.

There are also a number of synths that can produce white noise - i just find it easier with a sample.

Hope this helps.
