Create A Dirty Electro Bassline In Reason 4.0! (Tutorial)

Go to http://www.djluckydate.com for more tutorials, songs, and refills!
In this tutorial I explain how to create the bass synth from my song "Bomb The Bass"

Instructions:

First create a Malstrom Graintable Synthasizer
Set The polyphony to 1 and the portamento to 36
Set the range of the pitch wheel to 14
On Oscillator A choose the Square 4 synth
Switch the motion knob to -64 and the Octave to 2
Switch the shaper rout button to on and the shaper to on
Set the shaper to saturate and the amount to 127
On filter B set it to bp12 and the resonance to 61 and select the keyboard mode
On filter A set the Frequency to 104
In the filter Envelope set the attack to 27, the decay to 127, the sustain to 127 and the release to 127
Set the amount to 38
Create a Mclass Compressor
Set the threshold to 29.2 and the ratio to infinite: one
Turn the attack to 1ms and the release to 591 ms
Create a RPG-8 Monophonic Arp
Set the inset to 4-2 the rate to 1/16th
Now we are going to side chain the synth
Create a redrum drum computer and on the first channel put in kick drums on 1 5 9 and 13.
Now create an spider audio merger and splitter
Click your tab key and flip to the back of our synthesizers
Connect a wire from the L/R to channel one of the redrum
Connect a wire from the next connector on the spider to the next available channel in our mixer.
Lastly attach a wire from the next spot on the spider to the sidechain in section of our mclass compressor.
