How is this techno sound achieved?
Hi all,
I have been trying to achieve This sort of modern techno sound for a year now. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v63N4jiC8HE
The reverb kick is something I could learn from youtube etc. But this sort of sound I just can't find anywhere.
Does anyone know how to do this? Also, how does he get the hat/shaker to groove like that?
I hope someone can explain these sounds in detail. I would like to synthesize the bassline myself so it's a lot more flexible than using samples.
Thanks in advance.

Dr Techno didn't work that hard for his techno Doctorate it seems

Seriously? I have roamed this forum for the last week. The Kick/Bass in the video is not a reverb kick.OHADOHAD wrote:Pleaseeeeeee delete this post!

How am I supposed to know how this technique or whatever is called..?
Re: How is this techno sound achieved?
It sounds like a simple mix of a bit of a reverbed kick (perhaps reverb on send) as well as off-beat bass, doesn't seem like anything complex imo
Re: How is this techno sound achieved?
Hey mate, yeah its a pretty standard reverb kick layered with some filtered toms or bass. if you hear carefully the kick is doing the bass job, so its about trying out with those two elements that i just mentioned and it will get you pretty close results.
the reverb kick is not just watching tutorials of how to make it, it depends a lot of the type of kick you are using and on the reverb settings and your approach to it.
My recommendation and the best advice you can get from this forum is EXPERIMENT.
I ve made similar questions like yours in this forum and I realized that this leads you nowhere, techno is full of the same generic stuff. so go ahead and start trying things by yourself, it is much more fun when you are playing with sounds and figuring out things by yourself.

Re: How is this techno sound achieved?
Try this remarkably easy technique:
- Take a kick you like
- Add a tom sound, perhaps even the 808 tom or conga
- Tune it down to a lower A responding to the frequency of 110hz (same as in the A Paul track btw) or 55 hz which is one octave below
- Filter out possible high freq content from the tom and arrange it in a double tempo over the kick (Step 2 / 4 / 6 / 8 and so forth)
- Let the kick duck the tom by using sidechain compression.
- Compress the tom a bit to taste and adjust volume accordingly

damn, Mattias, I just did that.
am I sounding like a cunt (when don't I sound like a cunt ?) if I say the result sounded boring as fuck to me.
as formulaic as it can be...
originality vs repetition

I think Mattias is just helping people out with how to achieve sounds like these so that he can be sure they don't enter his original techno ballpark...

Hah!
What if....Subsekt is the source of getting people on the right track to genericness by feeding them the necessary information for it?
While we strive to proponent and encourage the lust of experimentation?

You have to make a lot of boring shit before you make something good. Helping people make boring shit is great.
You have to systematically create confusion, it sets creativity free. Everything that is contradictory creates life.

We dont want to come cross as cunts dr techno. Its juist that we get these kind of posts twice a week.

I know you guy's are just trying to help people. but I roamed this forum a week before I made a first post.
It's not like I asked 'how to make a reverb kick' or whatever. Because trust me, I used the search function.
It's just that, if you can make a solid bass/kick the way you want you can really start building stuff. Some great answers so far though,
so thanks.

Not gonna lie, that was good lol.
Re: How is this techno sound achieved?
I think most of people get sounds like this... just using some of the thousands of "techno" libraries released out there.
Put some loops in Ableton and run.

Re: How is this techno sound achieved?
So how do you make basses like in some regis or old surgeon tracks? There's lots of bassy stuff in between them kicks but I can't tell what it is, more kicks? A synth?
How do you make it all busy and full, without it sounding all busy, if that makes sense.
