How to acheive a modern Dub Bass Sound

[Mattofix]

How do I go about obtaining a bass sound like in this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g7tTNmB ... re=related (0:57)

I currently am using Trillian and then messing with the EQ but it doesn't sound great.

That sounds like an 808 kick drum for the bass.

...some use toms on lower keys too for Tech-House basses...

Thanks guys, but I meant the bass sound, not the kick sound

Have you tried using a simple sine wave maybe with some (or rather lots) of compression? Operator makes fantasic subby dub basses. Use the default patch, maybe with a very short pitch mod, like you'd use for a kick, but much shorter/faster decay.

1. Nice tutorial.

2. I'm pretty sure I need to put Hoy hacemos un SUB BASS on my business cards now.

3. Isn't it lovely that the Spanish verbs for "make" and "do" are the same word? There's some serious wisdom inherent in that fact.

Thanks guys, but I meant the bass sound, not the kick sound

they are telling you how to make bass sounds, not kick sounds. its a common technique - pitch and filter 808 kick and toms.

[3dot...]

phasers and low pass filters..

As abluesky confirmed..........808 kick for the "bass".
