Help making two sounds :3

Postby weegygreen2 » 05 Oct 2012 15:33



The synth at 0:24 and 0:36...

And idea on how to make them?
They always remind me of Sweetie Belle singing when I hear them...

EDIT: Fixed xD

I tried using massive but pretty much failed, but sound creation is not my forte.

Although I can say that it definitely sounds like he is using a lowpass filter and a stepper to achieve the motion in the sound.

I don't think massive will work on this, I personally think FM 8 or Sytrus is able to make the sound. The first sound is a formant synth, formant synth is basically a sound immitating human choir, it's not easy to make but you should know how to make one after you learn FM Synthesis.
The second synth is a piano recreation, you can recreate one using ring modulation on a subtractive - FM synthesizer, or if you have FL Studio, there's a preset for fl keys called "dance piano" if you don't compress it by any chance, it should really sound like it.

I was thinking that might have been my problem, I don't own an additive synth besides Operator, and I'm not very well versed is using it outside of making sub basses and white noise.

I got close to that synth at 0:24 by lowpassing a saw and slapping a formant filter like this one on top. Spice it up with delay and you're done.

Huh? That's new... Have you got an example?

I basically used gol's choir preset in Sytrus as a base, it sounded a bit dry to me or a bit too clean so I changed it just to fit my songs, I replaced the first two operators with saw wave and detuned the third wave. I added a cutoff Filter to lighten it up and set the FM level of of the first 3 operatos to max, and RM level to -30 on each. I linked all the channels to output except one operator which is linked to the FX.
