M4M - fattest FM bass ever!(8 layers of tx81z saw detuned and octaved)

[Adeptmind]

Where you located.. I assume you do live performances?

[ohohsnowsnow]

This is fucking awesome, very inspiring!

[muzik4machines]

@ohohsnowsnow thank you very much

[Releaux]

Nice work, man! Nice to see someone not just playing dance music, but PLAYING dance music. =-)

[muzik4machines]

@Releaux thanks a lot :)

[XYtoTheDoubleG]

MAN.... That was ridiculously awesome!

[muzik4machines]

@XYtoTheDoubleG Thanks a lot :)

[Zinouka]

Sounds with groove and live like i love them ! nice :) ...you have control ;)

[jedocaixao21]

nice sound dude

[muzik4machines]

@jedocaixao21 thank you

[chrisgimeno]

More ideas and less gear my friend!

[MoveOverCasanova]

not my kind of food but amazing performance, damn hot stuff!!!

[muzik4machines]

@MoveOverCasanova thanks a lot :)

[MoveOverCasanova]

nice little laboratory -- is this a behringer midi controller in the middle?

[muzik4machines]

@MoveOverCasanova thnaks a lot, yes it is :)

[alexatorius123]

You are great man keep going this is the real live!!

[muzik4machines]

@alexatorius123 thanks a lot

[joewalch]

I have a TX81Z - Can you give me a quick run down of what setting you used and how you layered the bass?

[muzik4machines]

@joewalch the patch ALGO 6 all sines op1 level 99 op2, op3 level 99 op4 level 77 feedback osc 4: 7 ratio op 1, 2 3 1.00 ratio op 4 1,00 for saw, 2,00 for square envelope is just on and off without any release

for the fat one, i just went in performance mode, all stacked on the same channel and detuned +2-2+4-4+6-4 plus IIRC one octave up and one octave down

[sargetech]

I'll just say this, P H A T.....and off the grid@@@

[ericmedley]

Damn!  That shit is PHAT, man!!!

[muzik4machines]

@ericmedley thanks

[ngok2011]

Real!!

Whats cutting sound? from 4:12..

TX81Z??

[muzik4machines]

@ngok2011 the hi pass filtering is from the akai mfc42

[RustyShells]

i love u.

[Squeeblebibble]

You Should Have Your Hair Down. And Let The Bass Blow It All Over The Place. That Would Make It 100x Better.

[phfrixion]

Nice tune. But why the System 700 (why did i sold mine?) in the backround? ;-)

[muzik4machines]

@phfrixion cause it looked good

thanks

[MrSidMan]

4kin A

[rosetwitches]

The Japanese concubine hairdo is a nice touch.

[TheHevquip]

I'm so envious of people with this much gear and have it organized this well. All my gear lays throughout my room and there's a million cables everywhere all the time...

[LAU99991]

Don't you just love those Behringer BCF/BCR series, great material for a great price...

[muzik4machines]

@LAU99991 i really do, will get another bcf soon

[The7thCircuit]

i actually find it kind of sad that people still use thousands of dollars in analog music equipment just to make the same types of music that fruityloops type programs can (and do) just as well

kind of like watching lil john in the studio , equipment making up for talent and same 'ol stuff over and over "YEAAAH!!!" b ready bitches...

[172Break]

@The7thCircuit When are you posting your version of this track done on a "fruityloops type program" so we can compare it to the video above?

[Alterstateresearcher]

DX200 is no joke. Clearly Yamaha's most sonically powerful FM synth considering it also has VA circuitry. The world needs more live preformers like you, great sound.

[muzik4machines]

@Alterstateresearcher not really VA, just a filter after a dx7 board ;)

i think the real best FM synth was the vl1 (tho fm8 beats both of them lol)

thanks a lot for the good words

[cyganmarek]

it's awasome mate, keep doing nice job , good luck.

[muzik4machines]

@cyganmarek thanks a lot mate :)

[HEXWHY]

Loved it! He's at one with that gear. Especially enjoyed the band pass stuff. and nice to see the use of the DX200.

[muzik4machines]

@HEXWHY thanks a lot :)

[Ravenpulse]

lacks around 200hz and 1-2k, sounds like theres no energy

[muzik4machines]

@Ravenpulse really possible, the fm operators are so perfect that the detuning causes phase cancelation that is totally steady, no movement at all in the notches but that's the best the TX81z can do, so i setled with it

[Tri3Dr]

@Ravenpulse

As far as i hear there is no clean 81Z sound at all, it's going throw that filter. IMHO that 81Z bass which was dry in the beginning of that another clip was NICE. Clip i mean was that SAW bass tutorial.. . .

[muzik4machines]

@Tri3Dr sometimes there is when i bypass the filter, this sound is really just 8 times the clean saw detuned +-1/+-2/+-3 and octave up and down

[SamuelGeoffrey]

this is pretty gay

[muzik4machines]

@SamuelGeoffrey you mean like the hundreds of uploads you have?

[muzik4machines]

@SamuelGeoffrey are you homophobe? cause i can report you for that

[PugOfDoom]

@muzik4machines

I believe that he is implying that he himself is homosexual, implying that he likes this for being gay. I mean, it's obvious that's what he means. :P

This is too cool for anyone to dislike. Keep up the good work, bro.

[muzik4machines]

@PugOfDoom thanks a lot :)

[909techno]

@muzik4machines are you joking? report him? for stating his (dumb) opinion? you make me sick.

[muzik4machines]

@909techno wow, you don't even differenciate a joke rom seriousness?

[909techno]

@muzik4machines just wanting to see if it was a joke. in any case, really nice vids!

[muzik4machines]

@909techno thanks a lot ;) c ya round

[oibobbo]

@SamuelGeoffrey

naf's the word...unless you really are homophobic...

[oibobbo]

@SamuelGeoffrey

naf's the word...unless you really are homophobic...

but it's actually quite good..

[cprostudio]

dude, you need a jomox mbase11 to complete that sound

[muzik4machines]

@cprostudio i wish i had mone (and space) for that

[muzik4machines]

thnaks, its a giant moog modular

[SonofDavidMusic]

haha i love this video. the green screen is so good

[askethom04]

love that sound sawtooth bass and saw lead ! awesome track man!

[muzik4machines]

@askethom04 thanks

[golafs]

what device do you use to make that formant (vocal) filtering near the end?

[muzik4machines]

@golafs boss pw10 v wha

[muzik4machines]

@golafs probably

[SchematicBeats]

nice

[muzik4machines]

@SchematicBeats thanks

[OpioKanobi]

Keep doing what you are doing. Cool set up too.

[muzik4machines]

thanks x2

[muzik4machines]

show us yours

[djip2x]

nice bedroom :p

[thestash16]

this would be sick if it was sequenced/structured proffessionally

[muzik4machines]

if i had been doing a "song' i'd be pissed, but hey, its a quick demo of a sound programmed in 2 minutes and jammed on

[thestash16]

haha i get ya man 2 minutes = half hour haha jks man i know when i make a track an i spent 2 hours on it and my mate criticizes it, im like, "dude its ok considering i only spent like half hour on it" haha jkin man if you wanna hear what i just finished its on my channel i use software tho....sold my powercore and blofeld :( regretting it BIG TIME! :( sounds in this are mad

[muzik4machines]

you should watch a couple of my making of's, when i say 2 minutes, i mean 2 minutes

[blo0magic]

This is dam sick stuff. I wish i can have your gears.

[plasmaforce11]

crazy gear dude :P

[muzik4machines]

:-)

[DJChrisLock]

What sequencer are you using?

[muzik4machines]

the electribe ESX-1

[DJChrisLock]

Do you do any live performances like this? That would be Hot!

[muzik4machines]

yes all the time :) thanks

[supertruckertom]

FM making a comeback?

Why not a TX-816 or 2 into 2 DMP-11 mixers linked by the Yammy digital link into a FMC-1 format converter to output SPDIF? USE a MEP-4 to resend notes an octave lower and get 32 notes for every one you play.

BTW what is your opinion of the RX-5

Thanks.

[muzik4machines]

..or use fm 8 lol

never had an rx5 so i cannot judge, but yamaha has great drum boxes

[gofyomomma]

...amazing..this makes me wanna hump alot :D...keep on with the good stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[muzik4machines]

thanks a lot :), don't worry ill keep up, now that the movie is done, i have all my time to compose new songs

[GospelMusicians]

This is phatt!!! Nice work! I've been looking for the classic George Duke TX816 EP with 8-layers and detuned....I haven an FM8 and can import the SyX. Do you happen to have that patch!

[muzik4machines]

unfortunately not, i wiped the whole 16 editable sound in the I bank to make my own, same for the combis, so if i ever had it, it's gone as the tx is my bassline only machine

thnaks for watching and taking the time to comment

[cmps12]

awesome electro house creations and very deep use of equipment.

best live tweakin i've seen so far.

this should be released.

show us some techno 2 lol

cheers

[muzik4machines]

check my most recent videos for more techno-ish stuff

thanks a lot, it means a lot to me :)

[senhorlampada]

Oh man! You DO know your gear! That's the meanest FM Bass EVER! :)

Gotta try something like this with my FB-01 :D

Just managed to find a free editor for it :)

[muzik4machines]

thanks :)

[ChrisSpazz]

Just picked up that TX81z yesterday and I actually find it kind of fun scrolling through the menus to come up with new sounds.

[muzik4machines]

good purchase, you'll have a lot a fun with that cheap little beast

[standingcorpse]

What is important is the knobs!

[muzik4machines]

that, my friend, is SO true

[standingcorpse]

That's how you play electronic music live! I'm tired of DJs being held in ultimate esteem for playing other peoples music.

[muzik4machines]

exactly why i play live and compose(most of ) my songs, i do a couple of covers, but it really is covers/remix, not plain playing some cd

thanks a lot :)

[standingcorpse]

Good performance. I want your equipment man! Analog is where it is at, nothing like the feel of real knobs!!!! I always say, "Look at the knobs on that one!" Nice topknot too, I'm rocking one right now!

[muzik4machines]

physical yes, analog, mmm, besides the MKS filters and the mfc42 filter section, it's mostly an all digital setup, but it's hands on, analog style for sure

thanks a lot for commenting :)

[kolakube123]

@standingcorpse

Totally agree. Ive never understood how mixing two tunes together is considered even talented. Even on the old Technics 1200s of the 90s anyone could learn in a day and perfect in a week.

[charliecromo]

@standingcorpse you talk like deadmau5! :O...btw...I totally agree.

[MadCobraProductions]

I have a virus ti already. i never played with the virus c. how much better sounding is the ti? and does the ti read "C" patch data?

[muzik4machines]

the c is a couple gen before the TI IIRC(IIRC the indigo came in between or something)

pretty sure you can import but i don't own(and never did own) any virus

[ibbieta]

wow, this is totally the benny benassi sound, do you suppose he uses the TX81z? PPPhhhhaaaatttt

[muzik4machines]

pretty sure he doesn't, his bass is one of the preset on (IIRC) the virus C, but the tx can get pretty close

[ibbieta]

Yeah, and realized the MFC42 probably helps, that thing sounds amazing

[muzik4machines]

especially for the hi pas as the tx didnt have any filter in it

but any filter would do realy, but for the lowpass with MIDI triggered envelope, the mfc is really alone(with PROBABLY the sherman, but i never owned one) in it's clasee

[grymmjack]

ph@

[muzik4machines]

thx m8 :)

[eamBeats]

im trying to use it fl studio (i would have thanked & mentioned you anyway) but cant get similar results. i only get the 'dry' sound if u get me

[muzik4machines]

just use a hi pass filter and sweep it, im sure there is plenty available in fl studio (i haven't touched that since version 1 or 2)

[eamBeats]

well did u use a filter on it, if u did which 1?

[muzik4machines]

no filter used, direct out of the tx into the soundcars for les noise

[eamBeats]

u know the saw starting at 49 secs, u think you sample that for me as well?????????????

[muzik4machines]

already in the sample file

[muzik4machines]

no prob, just remember to mention the source of the sample whenever you use it, be it on youtube or on an album

thanks

[eamBeats]

multi saw bass plz if u can

[muzik4machines]

ok i will try to make a (as) clean as possible sampleset

[muzik4machines]

check the description for link to file: the simple saw (sampled every C from C-1 to C8, lots of aliasing in the upper range) and the "supersaw" sampled every C AND G again from C-1 to G8) its a direct out from the tx, bypassing all fx, so the overall volume is low, about -16, but it's a really weak out synth compared to say a jx3p or something from those years, so anyway i didnt touch it besides trimming, no normalizing, no pseudo-mastering, just raw capture from (sorry) my MBP built in input

[eamBeats]

is it possible to get that tx81z sampled as a wav??, if you could, would you consider it for me??

[muzik4machines]

i can but the tx is a synth, there is litterally thousands of sounds it can make, i guess you want the saw and multi saw bass?

[whisperingvenus]

now this is i would call the fattest bass on youtube! 8 layers? you're a bass molester :-)

[muzik4machines]

thanks a lot :)

[skapoosh]

Holy Smack! Now thats a Bass! Getting curious about the tx81 myself here, thats how i got to your video. Anyway, concidering you made this very quick, your perfectionized works must sound even better. Interesting stuff~!

[muzik4machines]

thanks a lot, get 1, at around 50-75$ it's really worth it, and there is a lot of sounds/editors available if you don't wat to mess with the lcd

[muzik4machines]

thanks :)

[MisterEternal]

i agree with funkulankula that it could be better if the structure was edited/perfected. it is already very cool though. the bass is obviously the best thing about it, but the filtering towards the end that almost sounds like talking is rad too. i would like to see what kind of stuff you could come up with if you did more experimental things instead of just 4 on the floor kick dance music though. anyways one other thing that is cool is that you do things live, the pros seem to just pretend.

[muzik4machines]

as i replied, i would need to find the pattern first, as i don't have a clue which of the 300 on the ESX it is

secundo, i do live stuff, i retired from studio prodiction/nitpicking a few years ago and will never go back to the creativity killer that is a computer

this "song" is just a demo of the bass, the song might not even have been saved for all i know, it was a 30 sec whack-a pattern thing

i got bored of trying to be original/experimental, i did that enough in 1999 for my taste, viva le 4/4

[kolakube123]

Stick with what your doing M4M.

he imperfections of your live sets are to me what sets it apart for the rest of predictable youtube music!

[machineoblivion]

Awesome.  I'll bet you like Benny Benassi

[machineoblivion]

Lol, I just read previous comments. Looks like you do like Benassi!

[muzik4machines]

i did like him before he decided to do the same song over and over again, i still appreciate his sounds, tho now i know they are virus basic presets itimpresses me a bit less

[Massio89]

That bassline is undoubtedly electro and funk's child prodigy. Great sequencing. Tight track.

[muzik4machines]

thanks

[totorofusion]

freakin awesome, nice bass :D

[muzik4machines]

thanks

[XHALE303]

ok thanx 4 the info, rather eazy ;)

i knew u could set it on/off in the edit page

but the Tube page can only handle so much KB ...i used a HQ MPEG thats why it didnt work 4 me...BTW dont worry

u doing great, even without the analoge stuff ;) cheerzzz

[muzik4machines]

no problemoyou can use imageshack to host a bigger image(1,45MB IIRC) instead of youtube

[XHALE303]

that big synth on the wall seems like fun ;)

nice vids & music man...if i may ask

how did you made such a large ''photo'' on your channel with a frame around the vid without repeating itself?

great channel .. i subbed ;) 5+

[muzik4machines]

if it was real lol(i mean its a real moog model 5 modular, but its just a picture on my green screen, i wish i had the money for)

the large photo is just the background, the no repeat is in the chanel edit page,( i made it like 9000 pixels long and IIRC 2048 large) (just right click in the background in firefox and choose view background image, then save it and use it as a template (that's what i did with someone else BG.

to do the perfect frame, take a screen shot of your page and allign it

[NicksonDJ]

hey really like the track - just wondering if you could help me.

I have an Access Virus TI and also a Korg Electribe EMX-1 - can you explain how I can get the first phat bass sound that comes in at about on 1minute then how to fatten it up like when its about 1 min 20 in? Thanks

[muzik4machines]

the basic sawtooth bass is just that, a pure FM SAW with a bit of reverb and pumped via a sidechained compressor, the fatter one, is 8 layers of the same bass (i actually did this to mimick the classic virus saw bass used by benassi, so it should be pretty easy to recreate it with yours) IIRC the virus TI has a benassi bass preset

[NicksonDJ]

Thanks!

[DarkShroom]

wow all that gear looks and sounds awsome

i have to admit i use plugins myself but i'm still gonna have to try and get some bass like that, it sounds lush

[muzik4machines]

fm7/8 should do it in a pinch

vanguard has that kind of bass all over the place too

thanks for watching, check my latest live set (part 1 to 7) that bass appears a couple of times in it

[tekkentool]

sweet!

[muzik4machines]

thanks

[funkulankula]

You should perfect the arrangement and try to release this. :) That Akai filter seems to be really good sounding btw.

[muzik4machines]

thanks

i'll try to find the pattern back and do a proper multi track recording of it

[Troniqa]

Gotta luv that Yamaha FM bass-ness.

Never got the respect it deserved, IMO.

Nice!

[muzik4machines]

thanks

really, when i discovered how fat the semi-saw sounded, i tought WOW, why is nobody using FM to do that type of bass?!? lol

[MikaelFL]

I guess you used the TX81Z editor to program that bass (?)

[muzik4machines]

no, i do it all from the LCD as im too lazy to unplug the live gear to plug in and out in the computer, im so used to it it s easier on the LCD anyway for the TX

[djyourgofromlelystad]

this grooves man!can i call it ,deep techno?great again...respect..

[muzik4machines]

thanks :)

yeah, i guess deep tech would be a good title

[MikaelFL]

Siiiiick bass dude! Ya pas un peu de sawtooth la dedans?

[muzik4machines]

4 saw 4 semi square

detune de +1 -2 sur 2 des saw et idem sur 2 des squares

+12+19 sur les saw unisson, 0,-12 sur les detuned

0,0 sur les detunes squares et +12-12 sur les unison squares

[gr4vitysucks]

Nice ta toune, la bass est en effet FAT! Tellement qu'on perd un peut le kik par endrois.

Good job

Martin

[muzik4machines]

cetait un test de green screen a la base alors le son etait a la va comme jte pousse, ca a juste adonné que jetais pas mal dedans lol

[muzik4machines]

oups, merci du comment :)

[Mce6v]

this is probably my favorite m4m track. that bass is soooo solidddd

[muzik4machines]

thanks, now i have to find which pattern it was

to make it again :lol:

[muzik4machines]

jump to 1:16 for the 6 parts fat bass
