tayste_2000 Posted July 11, 2023 Share Posted July 11, 2023 Start with 100% octave down, probably the Bass Octaver though not as synthy as some might like. Following that some modulation, I’m having a lot of fun with Octaver into a Vibrato currently, maybe a sansamp model between them just to phatten up some of the sound. The key for synth sounds is always starting with that 100% octave down to remove your attack and give you a more keyboard like attack, most people will then go fuzz and filter but if you can get the octaver sounding a bit gritty (which I’ve done with EQ) then modulation gives it the movement most synth lines are played with. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
