How To Produce Massive Skrillex Basslines

[zherron92]

Too bad I can't watch/listen while having FL Studio up. :(

[LuskBlake]

stumbled..

[SoundGauge]

Pffttt, Skrillex uses FM8 for his signiture growls. Massive is a childs toy.

[RandomStuffPT]

@SoundGauge he told he used FM 8 for the deep growl, learn the diference between a growl and a yoi skrill fag

[SoundGauge]

@RandomStuffPT 1) I'm not a Skrill fag, if whatever I said makes me a Skrillex fag, then you're also a 'Skrill Fag'.

2) You pretty much summed up what I said:

I said that he uses FM8 for his signiture growl, this tutorial says in the description:

''Learn the ingredients to Skrillex's signature talking dubstep bassline''....not.....''Learn the ingredients to Skrillex's 'Yoi'''.........So, i'm right.

[DaDumbassproductions]

How do I make it make noise? I am intirely new to this preogram and dubstep in general, I am looking to add this kind of sound to a metal song actually.... I can adjust all the effects....... but It makes no noise... or if I could just use it as a vst in mixcraft but I dont know how to do that either.....

[thebientoten]

ouuffff..... I wuv this.

[94harris07]

Where can I buy Ohmcide from anyone?

[thecheesewizard]

amazing

[TheOfficialSkrilex]

Close, but no cigar. ;)

[IvanHadzic0]

@TheOfficialSkrilex Doesn't matter Skrillex commented on it ! :D

[DubstepbyAlecks]

@TheOfficialSkrilex Haha! xD

[OmegaGlow]

@TheOfficialSkrilex I knew it wasn't just Massive lol. And dude, you lurking the youtubes for tuts and stuff about your sounds eh? Found anything interesting?

[3ch0er]

@TheOfficialSkrilex LOL THAT ISNT SKRILLEX, its got 1 l in the name you stupid cunts xD

[metalpayne3]

@TheOfficialSkrilex Someone is lacking an L.

[lMistaLegiit]

@TheOfficialSkrilex

1.] Skrill smokes ciggs

2.] One L?

3.] Out of all the YouTube user names you chose to be a fake Skrill?? Lol

[futurereflecti0ns]

@lMistaLegiit

i think you missed the point of "close, but no cigar"

[BiPolarbeatz]

@TheOfficialSkrilex hahahahahhaaaaa lol umm u can inbox them to me Skrill, lol......I'm the ONLY HODD Dubstep producer I need to get it write or I'll probably get shot...lol

[kawigwapo]

@TheOfficialSkrilex hello real skrillex

[xenariz]

@TheOfficialSkrilex totally the real skrillex here :D

[DannyPolDiaz]

had to stop and get the ohmicide plugin lol awesome tutorial, loving the synth, and loving this new plugin :)

[hotnovel]

doesn't sound like it at all

[WowTeam333]

I'm using the hyper draw pitch bend and the wobble isn't picking up the pitch bend. Did i skip a step? Someone please help =(((

[claymodeling]

what do you mean? this isn't logic or i don't know..

but it clearly says massive ? :s

[giangiskatesk8]

heyy where i download the plugin?

[HippocampusTale]

Hey I have a weird question. On Massive how do I turn on the OSC2 cause it does play only my OSC1 plays. Is my Massive corrupted or am I just stupid? I would appreciate any help.

[xmfdibujito]

@HippocampusTale mmmm, massive corrupted??? thats weird. maybe you are just stupid. and also Im for writing this. turn the volumen up.

[beatlesguyEM]

Not even close.

[ToffeeTurtle]

I'm sorry for my braindeadness - But what program was this?

[sun0o]

@ToffeeTurtle Logic Pro

[Neutr4lNumb3r]

Not even close.

[aazgash]

khm, THANK YOU guys for making this vid

[fr3dfr3d3]

@DNBjay93 literally?

[Johaneeeek]

i got lost at bass #2 when trying to automate the speed of that LFO.....what's that called? I know how to automate, just cant find it when choosing massive

[merlerati91]

@Johaneeeek I use Ableton and you can't automate the LFO speed with the sync setting on, you have to do it manually with the rate knob :(

[Jazztenor20]

sounds kewl but it always sounds a little cheesey,why?

[madthrasher86]

This is a very useful video for me!!!! thnx tons :)

If anyone can recommend me similar videos like these (making glitchy dubstep leads) please do ill greatly appreciate it

[arccity]

it doesnt wobble 4 me,why is that?do i need to play around with the speed like in systrus

[YASINFAKKER21]

can you pls upload this preset?

it would be very nice

[Alu142]

listen i got some sick basslines (made by resampling not massive only)

check my dark dnb/neurofunk kind of tune in fl studio 10: /watch?v=JLbP6aq62DA

thanks and thumb up mates..

[Louiethecuban]

lol what a terrible track

[KakaoDj]

@Louiethecuban its an example you idiot

[gunbomb]

Dubstep, coolest band ever. Blame yt, dun blame the bass. It's just technique, how many youtube vids feature cool bass slapping or gee-tar tapping?? 4 minutes to learn, the rest of your life to get it right.

[psychedelicbrian]

this is terrible, and a big reason why the rest of the world laughs at the US's shitty electronic 'music'. may god have mercy on your soul for proliferating such awful sounds.

[gantonski]

@psychedelicbrian you act like the rest of the world doesnt use youtube the same way people from the US does. i've seen quite a few failed international tutorials. dont be such an anti-american electro fanboy cuntbag. and dont try to use big college words to try and make a stronger point. remember, your yt name is pscyhedelicbrain.. you can only be so cool.....

[psychedelicbrian]

@gantonski sorry if the 'college words' flew right over your head. but i have better tastes than you. lol @ "anti-american electro fanboy cuntbag" i bet that took you a while to put together. i'm anti- all shitty music like this, no matter what country it comes from. i mean, c'mon: there's a <4-minute youtube video explaining how *exactly* to copy this guy's style. skrillex is a joke. maybe some day you'll listen to music that takes more than 4 minutes to produce. til then, good luck!

[gantonski]

@psychedelicbrian im assuming you're not from US. in which case a) stay the fuck out of our music scene or get some culture, b) it doesnt matter how long it takes to produce ANYTHING, you're acting like it requires > x amount of hours or the skill involved in making it is lower, there is no correlation there sorry, and c) with the first two said, skrillex is fucking dope and for you to come troll videos like this makes you a huge fucking loser. dont cry, just go back to mom's teet.

[psychedelicbrian]

@gantonski you're assuming you're an idiot, because i'm from chicago, and i'm sure i'm more aware of "our music scene" than you are. it seems like you're the one without culture. people around the world think it's nothing new... perfect for n00b ravers like yourself. it's a terrible (but admittedly unique) combination of dubstep, trance, electro and emo (look up what skrillex used to do) - we think this is a joke. SORRY IF YOU DON'T

[thegriffster]

@psychedelicbrian The bottom line is this. You may think it's shitty music. Other people may not. Skrillex is making lots of money doing what he likes to do. That's more than most people can say.

[psychedelicbrian]

@thegriffster since when does "making lots of money" mean it's good music? see: justin bieber, the boy bands of the '90s, skrillex...

[thegriffster]

@psychedelicbrian "Good" music is relative to ones own taste. He's doing what he loves to do. That's what I'm trying to say.

[ArechancE]

@psychedelicbrian First of all, God does not exist. Second, you are in no place to judge what we listen to and claim that what we like is not "Music". Look up the definition of music and then come back on here and apologize to the people in this world who like to listen to what they like to listen to. If you don't like it, then fine. But we like Skrillex and we don't care about your opinion. It's our life. Not yours. Grow up a little bit college boy.

[psychedelicbrian]

@ArechancE i'm glad we agree that god doesn't exist, but i think it's you, college boy, who should grow up :) don't worry, in a few years you'll look back and thank me.

[ArechancE]

@psychedelicbrian Fortunately, I am old enough to know what I like and dislike. I don't need an immature brat to tell me what to listen to and what not to listen to. Nor do i need him to tell me his opinion when no one asked for it. For some reason you don't know how to be respectful to other. You'd rather go on youtube and talk about your uneducated 3rd grade comments. Sorry, i'm not in to that. And you telling me I need to grow up is like a 7 year old telling a 30 year old to grow a pair.

[psychedelicbrian]

@ArechancE no need to be sorry. but lol @ 'uneducated 3rd grade comments' when you've already called me 'college boy' - which is it, brah? and if you are 30 and listening to this i feel *really* bad for you.

[ArechancE]

@psychedelicbrian I said your comments are 3rd grade related. Not you. But by the way you act on here, i'd say that's about right. Anyways, i'm not 30. Much younger actually. And I probably will be listening to it even when I am 30. Not saying I WILL. But either way, I like it. And you're uneducated opinion will never affect that. Nor will it affect people who listen to what they listen to for their own personal preferences. Stop wasting your time trying to change people you don't even know.

[psychedelicbrian]

@ArechancE can't even get your own words right! yup, in the music biz we call you a 'lost cause.' good day!

[ArechancE]

@psychedelicbrian Mhm.

[nickmurrayvideos]

how did you get the waveform to start low and pitch bend hi - when i replicated this, each time it retriggered, it started at the higher pitch (on the osc)?

[Valhallex]

Whats the name of the multi-band distortion???



[scylozy]

@Valhallex

It says ohmicide and I googled for it and found it :)

[Nikola808]

HEY , great tutorial, was wondering , what exactly do you mean by " lfo modulates the wt position in the opposite" do you mean the green spectrum of the assigned LFO parameter on the wt position is the opposite of the first instance of massive?

[LukeDSimpson]

Anyone know how to make both OSC1 & OSC2 slide simultaneously?

(So far I think I can only adjust pitch automation for one OSC at a time - is there a way [in Logic] to copy automation data, or [better] to adjust pitch automation for OSC1 & OSC simultaneously?)

[BalamPK]

@LukeDSimpson I see the way in the video -> FaderPro - Art of remix - Bassline part 2 (4 min) Show a way to "clon" the bass of one and put in the other without loss of information. *I dont know how do it, only copy and paste

[djdevil0000]

GOD MODE!!!

[MrLucifer92]

@XplicitDubstep

its the native bit crusher

[TheGreenburger]

@fool232323

The program is Logic.

And all those who ask about the bit crusher, it's probably Logic's native one. It's the simplest bit crusher, nothing fancy, any bit crusher would do the job.

[fool232323]

@TheGreenburger Thanks. You were pretty nice about it.

[fadeliss]

@TheGreenburger yea I used a free bitcrusher found via google does the exact same thing as Logic's native one.

[fool232323]

What program is this that you are using? I don't like FL so much..

[xHiTeCx]

@fool232323 it's Logic ...

[poirepoire22]

@fool232323 Are u blind?You didn't see what was written at the beginning?

[tript3kk]

where do u find the bit crusher on massive or is it not available on massive?

[filthypatches]

If you guys like this kind of sounds: take a listen on filthypatches website...

[rbal4]

What program is he using???

[rmgdnmix]

EVERYDAY IM SUFFERIN'..HAA!!

[jeremus1979]

it only took me a year to figure out that the growls, (the REALLY nasty ones) are all granular synthesis crossed with real sampled sounds. such a win. WTG.

[HelloMoto002]

if you want get Massive for free

send me a note

[TheGreenburger]

Also, how do you get that rise in Bass 1?

[TheGreenburger]

Excellent tutorial!

Only problem is in the variations part. It would help a lot if you write what notes are playing in which time and which Massive, and zoom in on the automation shapes.

[GarridiN]

THE BEST TUTORIAL TO MAKE SKRILLEX BASS!!! THANKS A LOT!!

[WarningFedz]

where can i get this program? :o

[RockStepp]

need to know how i can do automations in FL10...

PLEASEEE!!!

[dadurtydutch]

/watch?v=E76XScvFDeY (best skrillex remake I've ever heard)

[Alexutzu05]

To do his basslines u must be HIM!

[Mordocyanide]

Can you do this with Logic? Yes or no.

[bigchoonage]

@Mordocyanide yes. but you need to download the vst plugins first

[deerslayer700]

what about in albino

[Con2202]

ok thats cool but thats skrillex's unique sound so nothing will ever beat him :P

[TheCuddlyFox27]

on the pitch bend where do i change the pitch? ive changed the parameters but i cant find what i have to automate

[Qbazq]

f***ing good job ;)

[MonsterDc1219]

Whats the name of the program ur using, and the bit crusher? all i have is the multiband plugin

[louiecord]

is this on fl studio ?

[IxxsuffocatexxI]

@louiecord Lol really?

[KlutchDubstep]

@louiecord ableton live

[eArtrash]

@KlutchDubstep No it's not...its Logic.

[Snallis]

@louiecord You can have Massive to FL studio if you want since it's a vst. =)

[samboguitarist]

when people say to compress bass or a sound or something, what does that mean?

[quartercherries]

@samboguitarist You're selectively limiting the sound to raise the volume but prevent distortion. In often used to make sounds more pronounced, in conjunction with eq, but it is a very versatile tool which can take on different roles in mixing.

[198683066]

man upload the goddamn song you just made its sounds fucking great :D

[MartinEugeneHarp]

hey man, a square wave has tons of dynamics. it's nothing BUT dynamics. xD

I think the compressor is dead. it's all about putting a limiter on every track now.

[ShaunBon]

@MartinEugeneHarp ... Dynamics has nothing to do with the wave shape. It has to do with the attack, decay, sustain, and release.

[MartinEugeneHarp]

@ShaunBon it was a joke man. :)

[ShaunBon]

@MartinEugeneHarp Good one!

[MrBlond666]

i think if they made vsts about 60 dollars instead of 400 it would be worth buying them.

[GrossBoyPornStar]

this doesn't explain shit. it's stupid and a horrible explanation.

[xVoodeedoox]

the only thing i dont have is a multiband distortion on my logic studio. i did as the instructions said when it came to the pitch bending toward the end but all it did was change the pitch and not create that cool synthie shouting things at around 3:15

[nickbliss]

How are you automating the pitch on the 4th bass? I adjusted the pitch range, but I see you have some automation written? What do I select to write that automation?

[danicepeda]

IF ANYONE DOESN'T HAVE "MASSIVE'' FULL VERSION I HAVE IT FREE HERE youtube.com/watch?v=5p795Wzvkm­4

[TekFreq]

@danicepeda buy it an surpport the people that work hard to give us these great vst's. If they stopped making them what would we do..?

[danicepeda]

@TekFreq Mabey if i was like a millionaire i would buy it but, unfortunately i cant just whip out 400 dollars out my ass.

[TekFreq]

@danicepeda Yer fair enuff if you get it for urself but to broadcast it over the web and share it about is even worse.

[Unearthed23]

@danicepeda You know you can get the trial and do this right?

[Cazaq]

@danicepeda Just go into a shop and steal it , it's basically the same thing.

[ejstheman]

@Cazaq No, not really. If you take away a thing that someone else has, they don't have it anymore. If you copy something without permission, nobody has lost anything.

[Cazaq]

@ejstheman Yeah , and it's not like an entire team worked for years to make that product , it just grew on a tree.

[GarethNevinTV]

@ejstheman Stop justifying pirating software.. People do it because they can, but that doesnt make it right or okay haha... just be a pirate and be happy with your illegal copy of Massive.. but please dont sit here and tell people that its okay or the right thing to do. Its like intellectual property. Sure i can steal someones idea. Now 2 people have the idea. I have it now, and the other person didnt lose it. But what if i made money off their idea :/ hmmmm

[JunglePantz]

@danicepeda

Sounds like you'd only have to be a four-hundred-dollionaire

[000Z9A]

@JunglePantz ye and then your broke..lol

[calltheriot]

@danicepeda cough cough "torrent " cough cough

[mrhanover]

@calltheriot *cough* lol *cough* *cough* I think you need some water

[evilsnakes1]

@calltheriot

...or you could support the process by actually paying for the product, giving them the incentive to continue production. but, hey, if you are a fucking leech in life might as well steal everything. so go down to your local walmart and load up your pockets.

[calltheriot]

@evilsnakes1 damn... cool story

[desthmasta]

@calltheriot THE problem with people these days is that they PIRATE all these plugins amd by doing so they keep the developers at BAY because they dont have funds to keep working

[MartinEugeneHarp]

@TekFreq use old versions.

[hypKNOTIKbroadcastTV]

So basically You us 4 different stacked basses?

[deckoland]

if anyone uses modern talking again and claimes its a signiture skrillex wobble i am going to shoot myself in the head.

[rkristjanson]

wow really great tutorial man, you can really see a clear path to that sought after sound the way you explained it. very nice

[EvokDubstep]

It sounds terrible and generic to me.

[smurfo129]

Go to piratebay . com

"Native Instruments Mac" in the search bar

Click the link that says "[OFU] Native Instruments - ABSYNTH - FM8 - MASSIVE - MAC OSX"

Free torrent download for Native Instruments synth plug-ins: Absynth, FM8, Massive. (Only for MAC OSX)

No need for $

[DekayDub]

@smurfo129 pretty good idea except torrents a for retards

[KindaSlimShady]

@smurfo129 Yeah and too bad its thepiratebay(dot)org

[nazaxprime]

NI FTW, Now All I need is the $.

/sigh

[DEWAA1234]

Where do I go to download or get Massive, I cant seem to figure it out =/ anybody know?

[err0r]

@DEWAA1234 Quick, better find it, your time to be a dubstep $uper$tar is running out!!! Quick, do it before a new musical fad arrives!!!

[ArGyProductions]

I never swear on Youtube but... this was FUCKING EARGASMIC 2:57 #FTW

[mynmyself]

wow i love how the bass 4 sounds!

[thingX1x]

what proramis this are u using fl? or what?

[TheGioification]

@thingX1x Logic

[IEatHarlots]

Lol I could make a better Skrillex bass than this. If anyone wants to hear a sample and have me teach you how, reply to my comment

[leepicciotto]

@IEatHarlots

i doubt it



[IEatHarlots]

@leepicciotto You wanna hear my attempt at the Skrillex bass? Send me a message with your email address

[IEatHarlots]

@leepicciotto Yeah, I wouldn't reply to me either. You know I'd show you up

[daviskrew14]

@IEatHarlots reply! please teach me

[IEatHarlots]

@daviskrew14 Message me your email address

[LukeElectrik]

at the end I want to know what your modulating on bass 3 and 4. Your lacking info on these parts. Send me a msg ?

[jackbeadle]

Great tutorial..only, when i automate the LFO in Logic, it is not in sync. If i click Sync in Massive however....i cannot automate it!

What am i doing wrong!??!

[leepicciotto]

follow this video but use

moderntalking for osc1

melofant for osc 2

and flenders 1 for osc 3.

thats how to make a skrillex bass patch with massive.any questions leave a reply.

[IEatHarlots]

@leepicciotto Not even close

[HypnoticCyclone]

Oh man mastering massive is fucking impossible and just being able to produce a good song ugh.

[SirHouseFly]

@HypnoticCyclone dont give up!

[Bossasaurus510]

who wants to make it sound exactly like skrillex anyway? What he does is fing dope, but not to bite. Just take what you like about skrill, this tutorial, then come up with your own mainy shit..it'll probably be bonkers.

[PunkRock1337]

What kind of bitcrusher is that? I want it!

[giascle]

@PunkRock1337 It's the standard bit crusher in Logic.  It's almost too good to be a bundled plug-in.

[dylanorvell]

@PunkRock1337 part of logic.

[syncopated84]

@PunkRock1337 Logic's built-in bitcrusher.

[mynmyself]

@PunkRock1337 it comes with logic, i have logic express 9 and it came with it

[DekayDub]

@PunkRock1337 get logic than

[OveeProduction]

@PunkRock1337 the one in logic

[NJmetal94]

@PunkRock1337 haha that's just the one in logic. just another reason that program rules

[PLTNMSTNDRD]

@PunkRock1337

LOGIC STOCK

[ShatteredDreams888]

@PunkRock1337 It's the logic standard one

[Clinteastvveed]

@PunkRock1337 Ohmicide is what your are referring to I believe 

[PunkRock1337]

Even if your opinion disagrees that this sounds like Skrillex. its pretty fucking close, and most of us newbs would have no idea how to get close to that sound, at least with this tutorial we can get close to it and from there maybe create our own unique sounds. Thx for the tutorial its really good and showed me some new techniques to achieve a deeper, fuller sound and grime.
