Hey Coby!
The best advice I could give you is to play with your synth until you get a nice melody. This means playing with the melody as well as playing with the filters until you get somthing groovy.
Remember, a "good" melody depends very on your selected instrument.
At this stage, don't care to much about effects, fx sounds, etc.. Your main goal will be to get the basic lines in your song.
When you finally got your melody, its time for the bass (i know that a lot of you might not agree with this, but it works for me! );)
You should easily find the steps of the bass based on your melody. And remeber: play around. Nothing is like a creative basline with the little xtra.. If you got a synth with a good arpeggiator, this is it...
You could figure the rest out your self....
I don't know how much you've been playing around with synths/soft-synth before, but if you are new, don't get to complicated with dozens of programs. That will only get you frustrated.
Don't think that you will be able to make high-quality trance on the fly.. Making stuff for the labels often takes years of experience... Just listen to the really early stuff by tiesto and ferry corsten, and you will know what I mean.
One last thing regarding the effects> Ferry Corsten once said: "Without the effects my songs are nothing. Taking them out would be much the same as taking the wings from a bird"
Have a nice day!

| Sometimes i find starting with something you dont normally do is a fresh way of looking at things. So instead of a beat trying some sound fx 1st. |

| yo guys, yeah making trance is all about the melody and FXs like fliterings and eq. But thats not over. to give an affect you gotta add a vocal to it, like a mistique one. I just got something licenced and its due on release. it like hard trance. check it out, its called Russ Castella feat Clara - Like a dream (Hyper Club Remix). look it up on Audiogalaxy, i think thatll work, if not then wait until tracneaddict uploads the track! youll never guess on what i made the track!lata! |
