Teknian/KOAN Sound reese bass [Neurohop/Glitch Hop]

[Dooks]

Hey guys!

I'm trying to do a Neurohop song with that "KOAN" vibe on it, I pretty much have the drum kit done, but the synths are giving me a headache.

Anyone knows how to create this kind of synth?

I'd suggest reading through all that.

Currently working on similar stuff, huge fan of neurohop!

This is what I'm currently working on

There is really little difference between making a drum and bass reese and a neurohop reese. They key is getting a basic reese sound out of massive. I'd recommend looking at some tutorials for that but there are a lot of ways you can get the reese bass sound. The real key in getting that awesome moving sound is post proccesing.

Here is the same bass from my WIP without any effects in the mixer

I did some basic distorting and EQ, but the key in getting that moving sound is filter automation and phasers.

Hope this helped.

I'm spending too much time on sytrus trying to make this synth

Is this the kind of stuff you need massive on? EVERYONE uses it.

And Icky, that reese is AWESOME, I'm looking forward for you to use them in your songs!

Well I myself used NI MASSIVE, but that's the go to synth for everything but leads for me. You should be able to get the same sound out of other synths. Massive is just really popular because it's easy to learn and can produce some killer sounds, and ofcourse there are so many tutorials out for massive.

And yeah reese basses seem to be the only thing I'm decent at haha, I probably wont reuse it in a new song though, gotta keep it fresh! But I hope this song will turn out awesome. First serious attempt at this genre.

>most of the example sounds are 404'd

Damnit, I guess I'll read it like that then.

Nice, glad to see more Neurohop fans out there!

Also man, that sounds already cool!

I followed a tutorial for a KOAN reese bass, but I guess it's not accurate enough.

It kinda lacks that "metal" feel that Teknian has.

Ooooh, that sounds really cool so far, a link to that tutorial would be great!

I don't know what synth you used for the sound, but if it's massive you could try and set the noise OSC to metalic and mess with that, don't know if that's really the sound you're looking for though?

I usually use the Modulation Osc's Phaser detuned by 10c to get a metallic sound. Metallic as in metallic and not as in the genre metal. I don't listen to this genre very much so I dunno which metal you are refferring to. :3

I added more FX's to the reese tho.

Haha, with "metalic" sound, I mean that "shape" that goes with the reese.

To explain myself better, here's Mr Brown, by KOAN Sound:

That "jedi sable" reese is one of the sounds I'm trying to get!
