[MrQuiverPeach]

I FUCKING LOVE YOU

[doritokindaguy]

datsik?? your voice sounds like his.

[LISTOH21]

you sir are a genius, thank you for the tutorial. One of the most informative and precise tutorials thus far.

[DJones2901]

I can't hear anything when i press play?

[FloopDubstep]

@DJones2901 you're probably not routing the synth to the right input

[TheFriarFuck]

why do you like to tut before each sentence?

[oGxiGohard]

Im New To reason how do i play it? lol

[dj11sk8]

@oGxiGohard your probably using your keyboard aren't you ? you gotta have a midi keyboard or controller

[AsianAvenger1]

@oGxiGohard you can call up the keyboard piano by hitting f4

[KennyWankpot]

@AsianAvenger1 worked for me :)

[AJ2240]

How do you program your modulator on a midi to make waves?? :o

[theinck]

This guy is the best at tutorials! There is a song by The Japanese Popstars called 'Without Sound'. It has a really laid back wobble. I hope I can make it with this tutorial, using me main mixing finger.

[leuwenharty]

why the fuck does nobody shows us how to compose the notes??? fuck dude! okey i can get the woble sound but only that sounds like asscrap

[cruztube23]

a gay youtube user teaches me how to create music?!

man, I guess I really love dubstep

[ItsLookingRatherGrim]

@cruztube23 How dya know he's gay?

[cruztube23]

@ItsLookingRatherGrim just listen

[ScarberianBarbarian]

This is sexy now I have another wobble to add to my collection :D

[linarddd]

nice somebody that actually discribes what he is doing detailed enogh for someone to follow thanks dude wish more people would make vids as clear as this one if watched alot of tutorials but most people just go so fast and have a really crap resolution video so i cant see what they are dooing had a question not sure if you can awnser but im trying to make dnb myself instead of dubstep sometimes a wobble can be good in i think but i problely should use other rates is there aneything you can tell?

[killer427100]

dude your pretty good at steping so don't give it up

[CommunistPear]

Every Time I play it I get a little kick at the start of each note. How do I fix this

[NattyxDread19]

@CommunistPear Same. Can't figure out how to get rid of it either...

[MrDRAGON666FORCE]

@CommunistPear Hmmm you could try putting the attack up on the amp envelope to cut it off?

[AskiDubstep]

If anyone is interested, I uploaded one of my dubstep songs that I made using reason 5. I would like to get peoples opinion!

[SmartStr33t]

Excellent, clear and pitched just right. Thanks for this tutorial...

[JJayAndTheFreakShow]

thanks bro

[djdunn84]

Please help me, I really want to practice it !!!

[djdunn84]

Thanks for your help, I heard the same songs as you, but.... I don't understand how your synth can be faster or slower on the same track, you know??? LIKE YOU, because i have the same variation

[djdunn84]

Thanks for your help, Iheard the same songs as you, but.... I don't understand how your synth can be faster or slower on the same track, you know???

[MRnigbat]

Okay so when I hit play the track runs but there is no like line for the beat follow(if you understand me)so there is no sound at all.

[dudesuperlame]

THAT REELY IS A GOOD DUBSTEP SONG YOU MDE IN THE BEGINING

[leekucia]

/watch?v=2EQMpmzwTHw

[apollstar1]

How do you play??? you showed everything up to the play point you just magically played it. That would help a lot thanks :)

[JayyGone97]

@apollstar1 space bar...

[technicalcore]

@apollstar1 press space

[Electrotastic]

@apollstar1 It depends what you mean by play if you mean play the track its the space bar but if you mean play like notes without a synth or midi controller you can access it by going to Window > Show on screen window the select computer keys in this new window. I hope this helped. :)

[captainclayman]

wow...i remember watching this a year or so ago and i thought it was the shit, but now it's just boring.

[dazahall]

@captainclayman get the fack outta here with comments like that !!!

[Jtracy1698leet1]

i did everything but i cant make it play wtf do i do man?

[jameszespy001]

My Aduio Wont work Can Some 1 help me D:

[NucleoidHD]

@jameszespy001

Go to edit > preferences > audio > ASIO ASIO4ALL v2.

this means your sound is directly linked to your keyboard

(IMPORTANT!!! If you use this option, you will NOT be able to use ANY other musical programme on your computer, or you won't hear a thing. So no Internet with YouTube, no I-Tunes, no Windows Media Player, or any of that kind.)

If, however, you want to use both the Reason sound ánd something else, put it on:

DX Primairy Audiosystem

[cyber797]

You sound like an actor, but i can't really say who.

[JakeTheBeck]

@cyber797 Vince Vaughn!!!!!

[maysonseyebrow]

@JakeTheBeck Did you motor boat, you did, you motor-boating son of a bitch you old sailor you.

[xhowtominecraftx]

where can i download this program?

[johnnybuona]

@xhowtominecraftx lol its a 500$ program. Big producers use this program the most

[xhowtominecraftx]

@johnnybuona shit lol

[kinamrof]

@xhowtominecraftx thepiratebay . org just search "reason 5" youll need uTorrent tho

[DOOMSDAYDREAMS]

so cool thanks so much!!!!!!!!!!! iv been stuffing round with reason for alil while,this video has just made my year i think,iv wanted this sound for awhile,so cool,thanks again

[samgee500]

Could someone PLEASE tell me how to use the built in digital keyboard with this? I've been trying everything I coulod think of, but it still dosen't recognize what I've done with the synth and itjust plays a normal keyboard sound. Im probably just overlooking something really obvious...

[Hedefar]

@samgee500 It sounds to me like you have the wrong track selected.

Go to the sequencer view, where you see all your tracks on the time line and click the subtractor that luckydatevideos just guided you through making.

Hope that solves it :)

[elemenohphe]

FTFY: Vocoder :)

Thanks for the vid

[956jake956]

ya how do you listen to it??

[CunnyFuntDannyB]

done all the shit he showed... NO FUCKING NOISE. HELP?!!?!?!?!?

[vcMalice]

@CunnyFuntDannyB probably forgot to switch the vocoder to equalizer

[superm961]

do u copy to track or do u need to do some else?????

if any 1 know pleaz tell me

bye :)

[hamdiman2011]

how do you vary the lfo rate?

[tvvicee]

And how do you change the Dynamic in the sequencer (mean the yellow,orange,red Hits). Or can you only do it inRedrum and then copy pattern to track?

[tvvicee]

Nice! Do you need a MIDI keyboard to play the tones? How can I putes notes on the sequencer? Iam new to this,. Would help me alot.. THX

[LizettesRealEstate]

Dude i love you so much!!!!!!! You just helped me pass my multimedia class!!! Now i dont have to have an F!

[MrX1x2x3x4x]

when you added the equilizer it wasnt connected properly to it in the back and it didnt change the sound of it at all but good vid

[ArsiekDHOL]

nice tutorial

little question how can you make that sound/ shape in 0:38 0:40

[SpatialRiftUK]

I did everything you said up to like 2:50 and all I get is a shitty horrible sound that sounds nothing like yours =/

[shishido7]

@SpatialRiftUK If you have it at a low octave it will sound really bad, try it with a higher octave on your midi input device and it should sound exact.

[bitchsillyjimmy]

/watch?v=VaTK_kbWf5I

my track on reason.. other tunes on channel too using reason 5 !!!!

pleaaaaseeeeee have a look for me..

sweet.

[kneeholealbowface]

Awesome video dude ! thanks a lot ! ;D

[893165009]

Common Brostep Synth more like. Keep it real people UK Dubstep .

[pallypower3000]

This was the exact dubstep sound I was looking for! :D. Now, how do I integrate this into FL studios 10? I love being a noob music producer :)

[Nikegre]

@pallypower3000 you dont, you only need reason 5 :P

[pallypower3000]

@Nikegre But I really like FL :(

[Nikegre]

@pallypower3000 well to import the sound into FL could be a major problem as its first of all not the same type of music program. you could try make a similar sound in FL with a modular synth machine or try convert yourself into working only in Reason. which is the best way to solve this problem hehe. either way i dont see any way to use FL anymore as reason got it all needed for basic, advance and professional music making, in my eyes FL just dont cut it anymore sorry :)

[pallypower3000]

@Nikegre I have been mucking around on and off for a few months, haven't really learned anything too serious though. I might look at reason, you say it's better than Fl though. Hmmm, why exactly is it better? Can you point out some really good differences?

[Nikegre]

@pallypower3000 well, i find it alot better but its maybe because i love working in reason basically. its simple to fool around in. its not just sample based but you can use real hardware to sync with reason and use the hardware or software with reason. also if you like to mess around with things in Reason try press TAB while in rack and youll switch the whole thing to a new view. but in short i love reason more cause its way more userfriendly than FL. once you pop!:)

[rm02px]

Thanks dude this was definitely helpful!

[fatmungus]

to all the people who asked "how do i slow the bass wobble down and up". Go to the LFO 1 area. the bloke in this video told you to move the "rate" knob to 3/16 (i think), to change the speed just move this "rate" knob up and down, im sure you'll figure out the rest...

[liljiggajlm]

ok guys if you're having trouble playing it, go to the synth device next to the measures, and make sure it's in edit mode, then you can click the piano keys to make the sound... when you click the pencil you can edit notes in yourself.

[5jefferydollars]

How do we speed it up and slow It down?

[faderfab]

@5jefferydollars Set parameter of Mod wheel to LFO time.

[AngryLlamaAttack]

@5jefferydollars

i dont think he slowed it down. He basically automated the frequency or something to sweep. to do this, use the combinator.. click thor then find rotary 1 > frequency then right click rotery and click automate

[warmaster5128]

how u speed it up and slow the dub down

[warmaster5128]

that sounds good i have reason and i havent really played with it that much

[TheMetalicwolf]

Thanks, that was the the exact sound I was looking for.

[waynuuuuus]

wow, that's a great sound. it doesn't even have any effects on it :D

thanks a shit load.

Don't check out my videos, I'm gay.

[rikwilson89]

I have the synth sound but how do i slow it down at some points and speed it back up and make the notes drop down and stuff but good video!

[DjDirtyNoize]

@rikwilson89 Check out boyinaband on youtube, his tutorial on making a rolling snare, it may help it may not, im not an expert at reason ive only had it 4 days

[10yearsofsomething]

@rikwilson89 LFO 1 

[24hpartytime]

@rikwilson89 first, you have to draw a line with your pencil (like in the video @ 0:03 under Lane 1). then go to LFO 1 in the SUBTRACTOR 1, and rightclick the rate-"button". Then click "automatic edit" (now you can see the second lane (LFO1 Rate)) and draw an "rate-line". if you dont understand what i mean, take a watch to this video: /watch?v=QI6vnRu5aDU&feature=r­elmfu @ 4:33 ;)

and sry for my bad english xD

[TutTut2007]

@rikwilson89 on the rate right click and then click edit automation (cnt spell) then do the draw clips on the numbers were ur notes r then click dots and move them around... hope u can understand that and hope it helps

[Ldawg16]

@rikwilson89 use the rate switch

[Priotech]

@rikwilson89 : create automation for the LFO rate knob. RTFM if you don't know how to do that.

[TehZezza]

@rikwilson89 add 3 tracks with the same notes, change the rate on the 3 tracks to 1/8 1/8t etc and then mute out parts of all 3 tracks so only one note is playing at at one time, hence the speed change

[ZockyDude]

@rikwilson89 you must do in the thor synth and open it and you see a lot of controls and the way down where you see red squares thats what i know but you musst do befor a few things sorry im not that good yet do play press and twist around the sounds

peace out yaw

[goldbikechamp]

@rikwilson89 LFO rate...

[dazzlebaby69]

@rikwilson89 you have to use automation to slow it down and speed it up.

[impsick]

@rikwilson89 by the RATE knob.

[jhamric2]

How the hell do you figure this stuff out? You need to be a brain surgeon to create that. You said it was simple, what?

[DaVillen]

You need better sounds. I purchased 300Gb worth of refills on 80 DVD's for like $90 bucks on eBay. 

Search "Gigantic 300" on Ebay

[Da5htElement]

nice beat ^^

fucking nice tutorial thx ^^

[alexboricuakid21]

hi im 12 what is this?

[marshallman63]

@iTzRuBeNxHD and @nicktasticish you can hook up a midi keyboard to your comp via usb (or whatever port works best for you) or if you don't have an external midi keyboard, you can go to reason prefs and set up your comp keys as a musical typing input for the synth.

[xGunno]

How the fuck do you play notes on the synth?!?!?

[MrTeeman22]

@xGunno @nicktasticish @iTzRuBeNxHD @videowatcher9001 Press F4

[lazicsale]

@MrTeeman22 when i press F4 it doesn't play :(((

[lazicsale]

How can I connect my synthesizer to the computer? which cable i need for that? where are the settings for that? CAN YOU PLEASE PLEASE MAKE TUTORIAL FOR THAT

[alexkid1]

This is prob a dumb question, but how do I create a song with a little LFO 1 Rate (that is a little wobble) and then increase it a bit the rate without the whole song being in the new rate? I.e, I want the song to start out with little wobble and then more later on.

[videowatcher9001]

ok so im a super noob. just got reason like 2 days ago from my friend. and im still trying to figure out how to make the sound play. if that makes any sense. like at 2:43 he says "if you play it" what do you click to make it play >_> i are noobz :D

[mitchrev2134]

while in edit... how do make it wobble faster and slower on the same track? i got the sound.... but cant make the wobble increase or decrease on the same track at different times

[mistarcribb]

flstudio is noob soft for noobs up your game

[xTeckSkull357x]

Awesome! Now do you know how to do this in FLStudio

[TheShahrazHassan]

@xTeckSkull357x

/watch?v=PAoVxuSIevc

- here you go mate hope its helps.

[jonathanpizzle]

how do you play it... 2:39

[purk5101]

why isnt my sound working? ive went to the prefrences and found drivers, and tried all of them nothing works, whats wrong?

[DottorHZ]

Excuse me,but when i Create subtractor,it isn't init patch,it is Bass guitar Why?

[trfinck]

@DottorHZ You need to right click on the subtractor, and click initialize patch!

[Godsarse]

This makes no sense I did exactly what he did from scratch and when I press the big red play button I get no sound?

[no1knowsmypassword]

@Godsarse hello, if you are using reason5 go to create then mixer 14:2,

[CompleteTomas]

Its not a synth its a wobble bass

[aquariusi14]

simple, nice  THANKS...

[Goin2WENDYS]

AWESOME VID, easy to follow with great results

[xxxNightstalker1xxx]

Can you speed up the wobbles during the note?

[deadithink]

@xxxNightstalker1xxx It's the LFO rate editor under the MIDI arrangement.

[InGameChallenges]

how do i add a music file into it i want to edit

[InGameChallenges]

Im not very good: Plays a epic baseline .-.

[4yushftw]

where is the play button so i can play the music

[kinglynx]

lol the INIT patch haha INIT!!!  :P

[064panik]

err... i hate it when people snap their tounge constantly. no offence dude, do what you do, cause your a beast at what you do lol

[malkie9090]

@064panik Thanks for pointing that out thats all i can concentrate on now!!

[BlackManSlim562]

the beat isnt bad

[xivenx21]

No joke, very helpful shit thanks man

[LzyDude216]

How do i get the init patch. thats my only issue. i can't find it in the files.

I have a pc btw.

And i am a noob

[ginopinelaofficial]

I'm on a laptop, how do you actually listen to the sound?? o.O

I know...I'ma n00b

[DaChinaMann]

it will not play the sound at all, its not muted my speakers work fine

[bugea7er]

@DaChinaMann did you create a mixer? if not then creat one and rewire ur subtractor to your mixer.. if you don't know how to rewire then create a mixer first and then your subtractor and re-do all the steps in this tutorial

[DaChinaMann]

@bugea7er did all and still does not play any sound, the mixer does not even show that its acknowledging the sound

[bugea7er]

@DaChinaMann well then it means ur subtractor isn't wired to ur mixer/ wired incorrectly. press tab (on your rack), then see if your audio output of your subtractor is connected to the mixer (correctly obviously: Left goes in Left output and for R the same). and if thats all correct and u still have no sound... it might be because u didnt select an audio card driver in your preferences.

[bugea7er]

@DaChinaMann go to 'edit' -> 'preferences' -> select audio in the dropdown menu and see if you selected an audio card driver

[speewave]

Best LFO Rates (slowest to fastest) [most common speeds i've heard in dubstep]

1/4

3/16

1/8T

Honorable Mention:

2/4 (Longer.. but used kinda often)

1/8 (a bit slower than 1/8... but a good sound)

anything around these values are good... once you go to far... it starts to be extremely fast or waay to slow

anyway thanks @luckydatevideos for that tutorial

[jmc2000rip]

how the fuck do you play???

[speewave]

@jmc2000rip press F4 to bring up an OnScreen Keyboard... or connect a USB\MIDI (Piano) Keyboard

[jmc2000rip]

@speewave

chheers for answerin bro howd you put the sound into the pad underneath( the blocks?)

[slimshadyfan2529]

You did well

[StirSM3]

which bass did u use?

[Garofild]

my problem is, when I play my notes (equally spaced and snapped to grid) some of them start with a snare like sound, so the wobble is somehow differs from my notes' length. what could b the solution?

140bpm 4/4 and the wobble is defined in the subtractor

[Garofild]

Thank u so much!

[MnTricks]

What is the name of the program?

[Garofild]

@MnTricks reason

[pahblol]

He probably has a MIDI keyboard connected to his computer. It's a keyboard designed for playing on your computer. You can get them at your local music store for max 100$

[Fr33lancers]

how did you listen to it? like did you hit a button?

[jpaulg]

Nice video thanks for the lesson very helpful - and for those who ask how to change the speed just click on the rate for LFO and move up to the next time signature. That will do it. Make sure in record when you do that.

Cheers

[Vayner11]

Where'd you learn the uses of all the different knobs/buttons? Practice?Studying?

[pahblol]

I think purplesloth101 knows how to change the speed now guys

[MrAwesomFace]

How to FUCKING PLAY!!!!!! GOD DAMID!!!!!

[Garofild]

@MrAwesomFace create notes first (under these stuff or in the other windows) then hit enter

[DienesOly]

HOW TO PLAAAY?!!
