UPDATE: I missed one step here, I forgot to mention that you need to bring down the Kick tight dry/wet DOWN to below 30% I think this is what is tripping a few people up. Apologies guys. 🙏
I know this video is old but I have a couple thoughts for you if interested. First, your second harmonic is actually louder than your sub (check 3:18) so it sounds dope on small speaker because its Heavy in the mids but you actually aren’t going to get much sub. I like that you added a notch to scoop the mids but I’d suggest creating a soft slope starting from that second harmonic (which will also help with the Fletcher Munson curve).
Finally, if you go into your saw wavetables and remove the first harmonic you’ll actually make space for that sine wave and make it way more prominent. This will also allow you to distort the entire signal more without messing up your fundamental tone.
There’s no wrong way to do things of course, just some tips I picked up along the way^^
Thanks for the tips Alkemy! I'm always learning and getting better myself. Thanks for sharing!
since the saws r pitched 1 octave above the sine there is no overlapping frequency so removing the fundemental from the saw will just make it sound thinner and worse
@@randompianist8359 I’d encourage you to study up on the harmonic series :)
@@Alckemy the lowest frequency of the saw wave (the fundemental) is twice the frequency of the sin wave. they are not the same frequency so removing the fundemental from the saw does nothing. pls tell me if im missing something, i get that u can distort it more but ur losing an entire harmonic
@@randompianist8359 at an octave higher it becomes the second harmonic in the series in relation to the sine wave so the way it pulses has a different behavior.
Not trying to be a snob, but my entire channel is dedicated to bass design. And it’s just a suggestion- you can do totally do what you want
Probably the best Reese Bass Vital tutorial on the internet 🤙🔥😎
Criminally underated
Brutally good man thanks!
I had never heard of a preset called Kick Tight, this is pretty awesome! Thanks for sharing it with us along with some very good usecases!
A friend brought me here! So happy to see more VItal use! Great tutorial!
Thanks for watching! Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for this my man, just got back into writing after a like 5 year hiatus. cant get ableton quite yet so i got cakewalk (which is actually pretty fuckn dope btw) after using live 9 when i was writing before, also found vital and 2 tuts in a row have helped me with it. As a Junglist for 20+ years thanks for showing me how to program this sound in vital
Thanks for the kind words Fair Play! Hope you are able to get Ableton soon! (check back on black friday they sometimes have a sale) Feel free to jump in the discord if you ever have any more additional production questions
@@SoundsGoodRecs for sure my man, thanks for that. keep up the good work
Thanks a ton!
Really really good reese bass!
Hope you get more subscribers!
Thank you for watching! Hoping we get more subscribers too. The best way for the channel to grow is to share the video with your producer friends!
Holy shit. That Kick Tight. I swear that's the secret to getting the Teebee/Future Prophecies bass
heavy dope tune! xD
Quick. Easy to understand. Fun.
You got another subscriber my man!
Thats light bro....:)
Super helpful, thanks man!
Cool tutorial, thank you.
wasn't able to achieve this tone without the kick tight. so it wasn't very helpful for me using a different daw.
great tutorial. short question, since am not an ableton user: what would be the equivalent to "kick tight" as a plugin for other DAWs? thanks in advance.
@@christian-mosesholtz5458 I’m not sure other daws have something like this. There are other plugins you can buy, I believe they are called physical modeling tools but I can’t recommend a specific one that provides similar results
@@SoundsGoodRecs thanks man. i did some digging and yeah, nothing included in any daw as far as i found, but i found the following:
Supermodal
PrismFx
Tritik Moodal
and to a certain extend maybe the following:
Kilohearts resonator
Audio Thing Filterjam
Audiothing filter jam
Soundtoys filter freak
FKFX influx
GRMTools Reson
Xynth Resonator
lmdsp Superchord
i'll do some further digging. if you stumble upon something by accident or anyone else reading, please be so kind and let me know.
My FX Distortion doe not show CUTOFF, RESONANCE, BLEND. Its not red bud dark. Any help pls??
The 69 was hilarious 😂
Was hoping you went over the stutter thing of that bass
That’s just a couple of 16th triplet notes. Nothing special with the sound design just the MIDI
For everyone thats having trouble making this sound even remotely the same: Update your vital. I noticed his vital looked a little bit different than mine, not in terms of skin, but functional handles on MSEGs/LFOs looking different etc, a little bit of a more polished, so I assumed they had updated Vital alot since I downloaded it god knows how long ago.
On the old Vital going 70 Finepitch up or down on one OSC would result in a bad out of tune sounding fartbase. On the new Vital version it sounds great as yours.
EDIT: Nvm, the first steps it sounds the same but it starts to fall apart at the multiband or maybe even chorus step. Yours sounds VERY defined, very crispy and the phase cancelation makes it sound better. Mine phase cancels in a way where it just sounds muddy and not as defined. so weird man.
Hey man, thanks for taking the time to comment. One thing I forgot to mention in the video is bringing the kick tight down to 30% that should help tighten up the sound a little more
What are your signature reese bass tricks?
❤
got a quick question, how do you make the reese bass have a sorta sidechain effect like the bass in gaucho by culprate & joe ford
Just listened to it. What's giving the reese that sound are some low pass filter automation, phase filtering, and most likely a vocoder. Hard for me to tell exactly what's going on but based on what I've heard that's what it sounds like to me. Try throwing a phase filter on in serum then post process through a vocoder. Automate those parameters and you should get a similar result.
Maybe I'll make a new video on this
@@SoundsGoodRecs that would be very nice, but for now I’m just using vital
@@theblan1k0ne You can use the vocoder included in your stock plugins of whichever DAW youre using.
do you have an effect rack on your bass bus? copied this exactly and it sounds like shit compared yours
Only a pro-L2 but it's only there to tame peaks. When you're producing the sound does it sound different from the default patch?
Try a little OTT at the end of your chain, time up, adjust dry wet, output up
Also make sure you're playing in the right octave. Basses can sound terrible when they are too high or too low
@@SoundsGoodRecs figured it out, didnt have the sine set to direct out lol thanks for the advice tho
HOOOOOLY SHIT
can you provide the preset file? i followed the entire tutorial and did everything you did but mine does not sound anything like yours
What does kick tight do? I don't use Ableton
It adds tone to a specific frequency range. Sort of like a resonator
Copied you exactly and it does not sound the same. The only thing you did not show was what your midi was set to, A1, C0?
Typically if the oscillators are set to -2 octaves it will be in the octave 2 range. I'd try shifting the midi around until it sounds good. Bass sounds best in the D-F# range
your vital is literally clipping bruh
Clipping is ok! Especially for this style of music.
Yeah right !
My credo: All in the red !!
Aha 😁
