I love synths like Massive, but it's a little known fact that Zebra 2 can make equally amazing dirty bass sounds. In this tutorial I'll show you how to use things like custom wavetables, oscillator FX, modulation, XMF and VCF filters to create your own patches from scratch, perfect for genres like dubstep, big beat, electro house, etc. Hope you enjoy.

Feel free to ask questions, and if you want to learn more about Zebra, check out the other videos in my channel.

I really don't get how you get the LFO to modulate the cutoff(?) at 3:43. Nothing happens for me when I add that LFO.

[zirconst]

@TheOneUp Are you increasing the LFO depth as well?

Zircon! Any chance you could make some z3ta+ videos? I just got it, and I'm still trying to get that really filthy sound with it.

[zirconst]

@Mtroid I have z3ta, but I actually don't feel confident enough to do a whole video on it...

[MasterPedroke]

Hey guy, can you send me the other FX for Zebra2 ? Like "Exophase"

[zirconst]

@MasterPedroke They're built in - if you don't have them, just update to the latest version.

the last patch sounds EXACTLY like the intro synth of Animal by Black Light Burns

Please more Zebra tutorials! I looove how this synth sounds but it'd be awesome to have more insights on how to program it, besides u explain it superbly well. Respect bro.

[kozihoppy]

Zebra FTW!

lets keep this a secret so that massive posers dont exploit it

[sml2238]

yo can i get a link to that skin? i like that one a lot.

[sml2238]

hey man i just ordered zebra2 after watching the video. i was contemplating between this and massive and finally decided on this.

i wanted to ask though, how did you change the colors? I'm not too fond of the original colors.

3 people from Native Instruments watched this video :)

[timaeus22222]

@timaeus22222 Ah, okay, you did it at 3:45.

[timaeus22222]

Is there a way to automate 1:14?
