Tutorial: Making a painful harsh lead synth in Reason 4

http://www.boyinaband.com - check out my site for the text version of the tutorial, as well as more Reason 4 tutorials!

I'll be teaching you about splitting audio signals with the spider audio splitter, and also some of the principles of using dissonance to achieve painful sounds!

This tutorial is not going to be for everyone - this is a painful synth for people who want to write painful music, so if you don't find disgusting sounds beautiful, chances are you're not really going to appreciate this.

If you have a suggestion for a tutorial, comment it below my lastest weekly video blog (you can find it on my channel).

If you make anything with this effect, be sure to post it as a video response!

I like your little comments at the end of your videos, "A synth more painful than Lady Gaga's fashion sense" :L
