  • In this video we do a little synthesis tutorial on how to get the buzzing, zapping electrical lead sound that can also be heard in Snts - Disappearance of Fate. This sound is perfect for any bleak techno or industrial atmospheres, and it's an excuse for us to flex our Ableton Live Wavetable sound shaping skills.

      No,everyone in the "scene" knows that SNTS is UZB (Unam Zetineb) who was caught on ripping off other artists tracks, hence the mask.
      A bit like the Emmanuel Arts story...

    Thanks for this, Oscar. I watched this video when it first came out, but the more I learn about Ableton the more powerful I find what you are teaching here to be. I just learned that you can also make some really interesting basslines with this technique by playing around with the resonant frequencies.

    I've been around synthesis since the 80's and I would have gone with my gut here and worked with noise to try to find what was required, thinking, as you say, it would be a logical starting point.
    Thank you for explaining your reasoning at the end of the video. Although I had understood your method and the details of how you arrived at your colouring of the sound, I could not imagine how you knew that your chosen starting point would get you there until you described the rule of harmonic frequencies.
    The way you were able to make such a colourful patch from such unpromising components is really inspiring.

      Resample and copy paste little bits of it. Lot more control than any "glitch" plugin and it will sound better and more intentional. This is the basic premise of the glitch plugins anyway though, you record into a buffer and play back small loops from the buffer.
