Re: How to make this synth?

Just having a look on the site now. I've never heard of these synths / company / modular environment before. Hi mate, that's just a (non-official) Scope systems community forum I linked to. The Scope dsp hardware is manufactured by a German company called SonicCore. They were previously called Crea...

No problem. I've never tried to make dub-techno before either. I might give it a go! :D

Anyway, you were the one who said it was a quick loop you knocked together.
So maybe it took you 20 mins then?

I mean, I'm not gonna do it, I've had my day making dub techno, I don't think I can ever go back to it
Hey, I was only joking! :D

Re: Anyone here using an Emu 1212m PCIe card?

Nice one, thanks a lot for the info wormcode. I'm definitely going to get one at some point when I can spare the cash. It's a no-brainer.

Re: How to make this synth?

What did you make this in? Learning FM properly is something I've been tinkering away at for a while and I'm curious to see if I can get this sound. I'm just trying it in FM8 though and I must be missing something, although my results are interesting and usable. I have op F at ratio 1 and op E at 0...

Quite possibly mate. I don't use that, so can't tell you for sure.

Re: How to make this synth?

There you go, that took what, 10 mins to do? Got yourself a whole Truncate EP from that 10 mins........ I'd like to see you replicate it exactly in 10 mins! :mrgreen: I won't join in the David Flores bashing because I quite like his work tbh and also he's a cool cat who's buddies with the legendary...

Re: How to make this synth?

Cool, thanks for that Z. I think I kinda do that too, or something in the same spirit anyway. In Sylenth, I like to fast modulate the pitch or filter with a lfo in ms. It can sound quite rough, abrasive and FM-y. I don't think I have any soft synths that let you do what you've Explained. Can you th...

Re: How to make this synth?

I recorded a quick loop jam last night to demonstrate the sound of what I was talking about - https://soundcloud.com/thezappa/voyant-free-download That's a slave/second synth osc detuned by -7 semitones, +5 cents and with just a touch of cross frequency modulation from osc 2 > 1 to enrichen the timb...

Re: How to make this synth?

Cross modulation? Modulating the phase of the 2 Osc's - if I'm picking you up right? I find thats a nice way to spice up a couple of saws alright What I meant is lightly/slightly modulating the frequency of your master osc with a course & fine detuned slave osc. Tune the slave/second osc say (just ...

Re: How to make this synth?

Barre chord to be correct. Yes it is a movable, fretable chord on guitar, but the premise transfers to the keyboard too. Something like an eminor barre EBEGB for instance (commonly used in reggae and dub, and so transfers to dub techno obviously) IT`s the easy route in to dub techno stabs, of cours...

Re: Anyone here using an Emu 1212m PCIe card?

Hi there wormcode & cheers for the reply. Is it just the Emulator X sampler you're saying is buggy? If that's all it is, that's no problem because I've got other samplers here anyway, both hard & software. I was reading an interesting review of these cards last night where they were running pretty s...

Anyone here using an Emu 1212m PCIe card?

Hi folks, Are any of you here using one of these Emu cards or the previous PCI bus version of it? I'm thinking about picking one up to stick in one of our PCs while they can still be bought new because after doing a bit of reading it looks like they might just be really great value for money at £120...

Re: Label Whores

Hi folks, There's some great posts on this thread and I agree with a lot of what's already been said. Something I wanted to add is that I think there's also a little correlation between what you're discussing as "label whores" and the type of DJ/producers who run a radio show and constantly play the...

Re: New members say hello...

Hi folks! Just found this place last night via your SoundCloud page, so thought I'd sign up. I'm a British techno producer and I've occasionally made a free plugin or two for the Scope dsp systems under the alias Shroomz~>. Too many techno influences to list. Really cool forum, so thanks for activat...
