Hello this is Lucas Palmeira from Imaginando and I'm here to give you another tutorial on DRC.
Today I'm gonna show you how to make the bass sound and arpeggio for the song 'Cloud Generator' by Kink
So let's start and get right into it...
And I'm going to delete this one and open a DRC, new one, OK.
Here we have it.
You can see that I have a compressor here, but this compressor is only to do sidechain with the kick,
so every time the kick hits it dips just a little bit on the volume, so it gives a little bit of pumping effect
But to do the sound now, we don't need it and it wont make a difference
So I'm gonna start by changing the mode from POLY to MONO
And I go to the first oscillator [OSC 1] and raise 1 octave
And I'm gonna raise the second oscillator [OSC 2] to maximum
MASTER to maximum.
Now I go to the second oscillator.
Take 1 octave, and raise the fine tune to 0.280
OK
Now the PRE-GAIN we take it to 0.803
Should be enough...
Now we raise the first oscillator to 0.575
And we raise the SUB oscillator to 0.640
Awesome.
Now we change the filter from a low-pass 4-pole to a low-pass 2-pole
This means the drop in frequency of the filter will be slower
Now we bring the envelope generator 2 [EG2] to about 0.518
Raise the RESONANCE to 0.174
Give us a little bit of high frequencies
Now drop the CUTOFF to 0
But then we go to the modulation page,
And drop the keyboard [KBD] to -0.56
Sorry: -0.562
This means the higher the note the lower the cutoff frequency
So the filter is done, and finally we go to the first envelope generator, [EG 1] which controls the amplitude,
DECAY at 0.465
Now we drop the SUSTAIN to 0.660
And the RELEASE to 0.1
Now the second envelope generator [EG 2] which is modulating the cut off,
We raise the DECAY to 0.882
And the SUSTAIN to 0.874
And finally the RELEASE 0.100
Finally we go to the reverb:
We raise the DECAY to 0.478 and raise the AMOUNT to 0.1
Like this, just to give it a little bit of space.
OK and we have our bass done.
So I'm gonna close it, and now let's do the arpeggio.
Let's pick another DRC again
And first thing I'm going to do is go to the second oscillator change it to a square wave
And fine tune it to 0.232
Put it at maximum, the second oscillator like this
now we go to the first oscillator and we change it to a square wave
raise one octave as well
And we change the pulse width modulation because
basically pulse is a square wave that has a different width on one of the phases.
Change the pulse width [P. WIDTH] to 0.365
OK like this
Let's put the MASTER at 0.699
the PRE-GAIN at 0.595
Oscillator one at 0
And we will raise the ring modulator [RING] which is summing both oscillators
to 0.582
Now we go to the filter envelope generator two should be ok at 0.505
CUTOFF filter it should be at 0.612
and now the RESONANCE at 0.144
Now envelope generator 1 [EG 1] SUSTAIN at 0
DECAY at 0.347
RELEASE at 0.133
Second envelope generator: we have DECAY at 0.230
SUSTAIN 0.4 - should be ok
And the RELEASE is already at 0.1
So here we have our sound
and this is it, I think we have all the sounds and everything we need
Let's now listen to the melody that I have recorded before,
just need to put this ready to listen, so bear with me just a second
Ok, should be ready, let's listen…
And this is it guys, I hope you have enjoyed this tutorial as much as I did doing it
and don't forget that we have the Ableton session of this project free to download in the description below
and we will see you again next week, goodbye.
