the best tip we here at David & Carr can offer u guys with out giving away to many secrets is use your imagination. If you can think it up try it and do it. You will find that many times doing this you will create many special club rocking basslines. If you want ill write a few tuts for this thread on basslines.
Thanks,
Wes Johnson

Oh my god, did people actually think kbkb was the ONLY bassline? god damn! And i thought i was an amature. |
I don't think that's the case, it's just that a lot of noobs tend to smack on an off beat bass, and don't bother experimenting further - because they just don't know how to get the sound they want. This thread is to inform people who NEED insight into how a rolling bassline could be created. It did help me quite a bit back in the day! :) |

ohhh man this thread is a hawt!! thumps up!! to the thread starter ,
i use wasp mainly with some delay on it and often ts404 layered with wasp , i follow the same sequential patterns listed by others in the early posts
not a proffesional thou ,my 2 cents
K---K---K---K--
--b---b---b---b- <----- if this is the structure ,or lets say
somethin else like this
K---K---K---K---
-bb---b--b-b--bb-
what i do is in fl
go to the channel window
click the function menu
in the arpegiator window
select arpegiator direction down
set the range to 3
and then simply change the not up ,that is ,if its c5 change it to c6 or c7 or c8 u can hear some good arpegiated basslines ,a bit of stereo delay would also be nice ,don't know whether there is some mistakes but this is my kinda style
hope this helps ,and correct if some mistakes are there:) |

I didn't read through the whole thread, not sure whether or not the use of arpeggiators has been mentioned for basslines.
I made a whole lot of MIDI clips of various bassline/ arpeggio patterns (basslines out of this or a similar thread, arpeggios out of MIDIs on nonstop2k), then trying to fit them into songs by moving the notes up, down etc...
Fiddly and time-consuming. Then I dug into the Arpache tools in Cubase and noticed - hey! You can grab MIDI clips and drop them into Arpache! Now, if I want to preview a certain trance pattern, I don't have to use the actual MIDI clips anymore and move them around. Arpache automatically applies the pattern to the notes/chords you want to apply them to.
I'm sure a heap of arpeggiators allow you to simply drag in MIDI patterns. I have around 70 cool patterns all lined up, that way it's such a breeze to just cycle through them and quickly find patterns that groove with the song. Once you've found one, you can either use the arpeggiator or find and use the original MIDI clip and tweak it (I kinda like having all the notes displayed, once the song is finished. It means I can quickly create a MIDI file and have all the information for each track.)
So there you go. I heartily recommend arpeggiators for basslines! |
