| do you know of any good patterns to play it in? |

heres a short snippet i made.
[[ LINK REMOVED ]]
used the teebee preset and changed the waveform from square to tri/saw. also bandpass and all the stuff i mentoined before.
the acid pattern looks like this.

So what did you use to make that? |

Shucks, I forgot to paste the link to the source :)
source .flp
Used 3xOsc as a generator, Blood Overdrive as a distortion unit. Then, in order:
-Classic Flanger, to give it some modulation
-Rubber Filter - to cut off low frequencies (I used 100+db/oct hpf here!)
-reverb and delay, to add some space
-EQ and compression. |

i couldn't sleep tonight so i thought i'd post a sample really quick. my apologizes for any sound quality issues...i'm on my laptop and i didn't try to master this at all hehe :p...
here is an acidy type sound i made real quick in ableton operator. it's really basic, but i thought it might help prove a point.
[[ LINK REMOVED ]]
this sound is made with a single saw wave with no effects on it at all (you don't need effects to make an acid type sound)
there are a couple of important things though:
portamento and velocity. play around with these controls until you get a chirp you like. really other than that...your note sequencing is what gives it a varied sound and allows the portamento to slide. for instance, once again just keeping it simple, my little sound covers three octaves of C.
of course i'm also changing the cutoff for a low pass filter over the top...
anyway, i don't post much but thought that would be helpful. |

| Floorfiller, I would greatly appreciate if you could give a few more detail about how you made this sound ! |

| eh...the real secret to acid is in the sequencing |

| You mean how the artist builds up the tension in his track ? |

acid can be very easily done in reason with subtractor, scream, high Q filter with lfo, and eq. |
Is there any tutorials out there that talks about this ? I've looked on the master list, without any real success... |

yeah the acid sound is easy, basically a nice filter and env mod. probably some portamento and something. add some dirt (distortion and stuff)
but this usually still isnt quite good enough...when you just sequence a melody in 16ths or something in a piano roll, if you compare it to if you had sequenced it on a 303, theres a strange way the sequencer effects the way the envelopes and filters are on hardware.
so basically i suggest adding some subtle envelope automations, and then playing with the midi data a bit to give it a rawer sound. dont have it all quantized well.
this is just my taste in acid though... |
