This gating and side-chaining type of effect can be obtained in FL studio by using the peak limiter. Read up on it and then you'll understand what they mean by drawing in notes to control the volume.
Also, be careful of having too much of the same frequency when you're layering. If you don't EQ, you can possibly have phase shifting and a "muddy" sound. |

start with an off beat sub poss a sin wav , sidechain it to your kick drum, fire a compressor on it. layer it if need be with anoteher sound, from there add notes as you go to see what sounds good, lengthen your notes and throw an arp on them - there are so many options available - there is no typical trance bass, it's what goes on with the bass that makes it trance |
can any one show me how to do this in reason! :) Thanks |

Apart from the different octaves that looks like a psy baseline to me. |

Hi costizzle,
I'm also learning how to make kick + bass high pressure sounding!
Here some bass example from me:
Horse Power
* This is a club floor bass using Vengeance Samples and sidechain.
Just play a trancy basic bassline xXx xXx xXx and the bass low tail of the kick will affect in the first bass notes of every sequence xXx do not interfering in they low frequences.
Also the bass has a little of high passed delay and I've compressed the Kick + Bass together in a buss.
Never use reverb in Kick and Bass. In rare instances you can use it (in Bass) very compressed for a Benassi style for example.
I tune every sample (including the kick) using my ears and the fine tune knob.
Also the Vengeance Sample CDs have the most high pressure samples for productions and is a must have for kick and bass.
!Vengeance Samples are already compresed fo maximum pressure without significant loss of dynamics, so if you recompress they again you will loose a lot of dynamics! Only compress the kick + bass buss and at mastering.
----
Also you can do some Layered basses using a high centered low bass and 1 or 2 more basses in the mix. Low bass + medium or high bass with delay.. This is the most trancy bassline.
---
You can do some cool things with the pencil tool (I'm talking about audio and I'm not gay) :stongue: Use it to gate in volume automation makig some cool drawings and copying it and pasting after a sequence is defined.. I think this is the case you get more techy..
---
These techniques are what I learned at this moment.
Correct me someone if I'm wrong im some example and sorry my basic english.
tks

if you like that goa stuff CHECK OUT PURPLE AND LUNARS - SUBTLE THRUST that was a badass record great for massives.
but for GOA maybe on the old school okie cd the early one there is a record with a robot saying I'm feeling weird. that was a classic mix or the one with the police saying he wasnt cooperating. |

Not really trance but, I have been working on my bass recently and i came up with this. [[ LINK REMOVED ]]
Feedback is welcome.
Edit: i made this at like six in the morning. I just had another listen and it is horrible. , I suck at bass. |

I've discovered a neat technique to great a galloping bass line much like Tiesto used in his older tracks. One way I do this is I load a VST that has a bass with a strong and prominent reverb. I then just play a note after each reverb note and I get consistent rolling bass line.
There are many ways to approach creating a bass line. That's the beauty of producing! |

| One Word ICE 794 by Hardy Heller, track is 8 years old but the style perfect. I found a new song or somewhat new that has a fatass style of trance Onova - Platitude - Will Holland Remix. Its alot more smooth and not so raspy. |
