How To Make A Massive Supersaw/Trance Synth

[misterpete]

Great tutorial - you forgot to turn on the reverb in the end though?

Other than that brilliant, I'm going to go through your tutorials and learn as I go. Think this sound would be good for a LMFAO / RedOne (in Enrique's I Like It) synth 'stabby' effect - Watch out for me when I've produced a couple of tracks, I hope to be as good as you someday!

Your the first Sylenth1 tutorial I've seen with a real license. Respect.

Great tutorial ;) You wanna turn the voices up, to get a fatter and bigger sound. Play with the drive in both parts. Choose 12db filter for the high-end and 24db filter for the low-end. With a supersaw you don't want any soft keys, so the wave should be set to saw on all 4 oscillators. The supersaw FX parameters has a good tweaking point at 33.33% or 66.66%.

It seems so simple but it still sounds greater than any sound I've made!

[vijayweemhoff]

whats the plug in called?

[TheycallmeYUGO]

@vijayweemhoff Sylenth

[Slinkytiger71]

kiaora dude! thanks tutorial!:-)

[apillay12]

@nzmusic101 did you download your sylenth 2.2 if so could you send me a link?

[godderis]

great tut, thanks for sharing.

question though: is it normal for the stereo knob to have zero effect when retrigger is on? have searched the web for this, but couldn't find any info on it - the sylenth manual doesn't mention it either..

[STEELRAIN327]

Thanks for the tutorial mate,i just received Sylenth yesterday,you have made the journey into my new toy alot more easier,thanks bro :]

[pac0re]

@nzmusic101 hey dude. you probably already know this... but...

when u enable retrigger on sylenth it means that every time u press a different key the oscilator starts from the same point in the waveform.... for instance if one oscilator has 8 voices detuned they will all start in phase when retrigger is on.. hence the phasy sound .. when u have retrigger off they are all detuned on their own and start at different phases which is why it sounds richer :))

[thehadgi]

thanks mate!

[DJEruMx]

THUMBS UP FOR MORE SYLENTH TUTORIALS!!! :D

[DJTonx]

Thanks man :-)

[TwistedLogicSyndrome]

can u please show us how to do it in Massive coz my Sylenth 1 won't let me load a Init patch

[newzealanddude92]

@TwistedLogicSyndrome If you had a legal copy it would have init patch lol...

[Panzel]

Cool ... thx a lot!

Cheers

[LeviWhalenMusic]

Great sound! Did you mean to leave osc B2 on the sine? I noticed you didn't change it to sawtooth and it does change the timbre somewhat.

[nzmusic101]

@LeviWhalenMusic shit! - yes, sorry all osc meant to be saw waves! royally stuffed up this tut - oh well just listened to the vid and the sound actually still comes out alright haha!

[LeviWhalenMusic]

@nzmusic101 haha its cool! It just gives it a more "ethereal" sound, so in a way its just less punchy.

[nzmusic101]

@LeviWhalenMusic exactly!

[fullaces90]

i dont have the menu button on the LSD screen. How do i access it?!

[Rokoroks]

Slap an envelope on that cutoff, that way when you roll off the top, there's still definition! Love it though

[luckyjrs]

@Rokoroks explain in fuller detail please. Slap an envelope on the master cutoff going which direction? down? i guess im gonna try :3

[QiantaMusic]

i like turtlez

[davidgtr]

Thanks NZ But since your stacking all those osc and the supersaw sound is used for a few notes at a shot you should bring up the polyphony to 16 to make use of all those voices and make it sound even bigger

[Brainbox97]

Could you ahow how to make the sound in 'some chords' -deadmau5 Greta tutorials btw!

[zacoree13]

Is that massive or what is it?

[newzealanddude92]

@zacoree13 Sylenth1

@Imakeilltrax Thanks

[yourmom09]

haha you never turned on the reverb! I <3 Enzed.

[nzmusic101]

@yourmom09 damn im good! Enzed loves you too bro :-)

[fullaces90]

is it possible to make this in Massive? 0.o

[DJChrisMack]

@fullaces90 Yes, just do the same thing except with three oscs. Saw waves , detune , turn the unison up to 4-6ish bit of Eq and bam!

[CS5n531]

@fullaces90 1:17 "You can do it in Massive, but Sylenth is the best."

[AnarchisticLemmings]

@fullaces90

Yeah but you'll get a different sort of sound.

[fullaces90]

YUH! :D
