This is what I call a proper psy-bass tutorial, the internet was definitely in need for this one ! I would have used 2 EQs in a case similar to this bass not only to get better "view" but also I feel that the algorithms works better when the EQins is seperated on several EQs than one doing the whole thing ! And your technique for creating the saw wave is an absolute time saver for such a task !
Love it when you find a person who just sits with you and talks you through stuff like these vids, as opposed to having sit through obnoxious loudmouths, who want you to see their face and hear drivel, and laugh at their pointless jokes, all while waffling on about crap instead of what you came to learn. sub'd.
It’s so cool you are sharing these “trade secrets”! Your straightforward videos on kicks and basslines are fundamental, and they made me more interested in the genre.
really nice tutorial!! thanks for sharing. struggling with that topic for 3 years now and tried a million different approaches andwatched so many videos but this is explained much better than most. thumbs up
thanks man :) i can relate to you on that one, i spent years obsessing over kick and bass and in the end it was just depressing much of the time. so happy to have helped you out!
@@MuteProduction yes i feel u so much with this. i dropped into quite some dark places in that process too. questioning everything i do and my capabilities to achieve anything going further and further away from actually making music and most important having fun with it. all the best for you!
Lmfao, I am kinda glad reading these comments, knowing that others share the pain. I thought it was just me. Kick and bass has been the bane of my life for so many years, slowly getting closer but my God. Its so difficult and I can never move past it.
This is by far, if not the best bass tutorial I've ever seen and I watched a lot of them. I hope you will consider creating a similar tutorial of how you create your kicks somewhen. Many thanks for sharing your knowledge mate and keep up the awesome work!
Hey man, if you didn't know for your envelopes you can type in a note value in serum (i.e. 1/16) and it will set the length of the parameter to a 16th note at the bpm you are at 🙂 Good for setting decay time of psy basses
Nice, thought it would be good if others didnt know about it. Downloaded your serum preset pack, fantastic presets man 🙂 the kicks in particular are great, i haven't seen someone use the macro controls the way you have, its a super good idea. Especially synthesising them in serum so its automatically pitched to the key of the track. All in all sensational work man 🙂
thanks for the video....would be nice to have one talking about how you gain stage during creative process... and during the mix process if there s one...
AMAZING Tutorial, would love to see more complex Psy Bass Tutorials from you. QUESTION, how on earth do you not have any Delay when you open LFO Tool??? I always have to phase shift to compensate for the delays caused by all the plug ins :D Kick / Bass alignment would be also really interesting
Glad you liked it bro! if your interested in getting a deeper understanding of your psytrance bass then consider my webinar. it’s 20% off until the 15th of August too. Just use the code: MPDC20 muteproduction.gumroad.com/l/NightBass
Hi Mute, what's the plugin that you use initially in the chain to monitor the LUFS? It's not a stock Ableton plugin, is it? Thanks for the amazing video, golden knowledge that can apply to various types of rolling basslines of Trance
Have you seen how E-clip does it? Similar to your way, however, he adds an envelope to the second filter in the fx section. Also, he has barely any sustain compared to your way. I like both tutorials, the playing around with phase with the bands is common to both of you, he however uses Vitamin.
i haven’t seen his video no but these days i’m using hold in my filter envelope and then using the filter in the filter section to shape the transient :)
Great tutorial! One of the best bass tutorials I have ever seen tbh 🙌 But how did you get the oscilloscope of the kick and bass on screen? Bc everytime I put an oscilloscope on the kick and bass channel and I switch back to the bass processing, the oscilloscope disappears and only pops up again when I switch back to the kick and bass channel again. So how can I have a plug-in on screen, although it’s not on the Channel that I am currently working on? I hope u were able to follow me haha not sure if I explained it good enough😅
hi bro you are amazing i really thank you , maybe can you share the name or idk , (how you open the Master parameters attached to the down left corner)
i’m not sure if i have any kick drum tutorials actually… I could probably try to make one though :) often i will revise a kick over and over again for a couple weeks until i’m happy with the result.
@@MuteProduction Maybe do some different variations of a kick in kick2 and upload it. I would love to see that. Some heavy dark kick, to Earthspace style kicks.
@@mattwilson3417 i’m not sure if there’s much i can add on that topic but i suppose i could do a video on that… I do however only really use kick2 these days. A serum kick video could be fun though so i’ll think about it!
