How to make a electro baseline?
hey..im new to ableton live (version6), was wondering how to make an electro baseline...you know the one that drops in after about a minute of the tune. Ive created drum patterns and percussion etc that leads up to it, just need to know how to make a baseline and how to put it into practice. I have ableton live 6 with operator and sampler.
HELP!!!! lol
Also...how to create leads that will run up to the drop of the main baseline?

For that you have to use a synth. If you use Simpler and Operator in Live you drop them on a midi track. Then you double-click on a clip slot and at the bottom of your screen will appear the midi editor. Then you draw the melody you like, there's also a keyboard graph to help you now which notes are played.
From then on it's up to you. You have to find the sound you like (look in the Instruments Racks folder) or forge it yourself with Operator.
Otherwise get yourself a midi keyboard and a VST synth like Zebra, Vanguard, Predator, Arturia, Korg Legacy, ...

2 Operators in a rack
operator 1 in subratrive mode, turn 1 oscillator down to the lowest tuning
put a HPF on it, this will give you your buzzy sound.
operator 2 in subratrive mode, get yo'self a nice sine or triangle or square
put a LPF on it, this will give you the meat of the bass.
Add oscillators and tweek both synths to taste.
AFTER RACK
Add a reverb effect, wet/dry at bout 18, to taste.
Add a compressor
Add a sidechain compressor.
Now you have a big sounding buzzy bass with a hole in the middle of the EQ range nicely compressed and groovy with the sidechain compressor, the reverb will also duck out giving a nice effect.
Thats all about it.
