Low frequencies

Cochise · Post by **Cochise** » Wed Sep 14, 2005 6:32 am

Hi.
I have to give a solid body to a drone sound I'm trying to patch, so I'm looking for the best way to obtain bass and sub-bass frequencies.
Any advice is really welcome.

Celmo's Subboost or SubbassBooster Pro, try the demos, they sound fantastic!

excuse, this is modular related

Mix in a low sin osc, maybe with a bit of FM. The spectral osc might be good for your purposes too. Or link a Dubsub2 (Wavelength) to the same MIDI channel and feed it into the modular input

use resonant highpass filter set to low frequency and with decent amount of resonance,
or
take FM operator, set it octave or two below drones pitch, and feed it's FM input with the drone sound
or
take some morphing or spectral osc and pitch modulator with linear modulation (don't remember which one that was exactly

), feed oscs freq input thru modulator, feed modulation linear modulation input with drone, dial FM amount and oscs harmonic content to taste...
btw, HPF and FM stuff works nicely in combination
and of course, imagination is the only limit

Thank you, guys.
I'll patch out something about.

This seems strange, Why would you want to use a HPF if the goal is to have a fat sub-bass...?
Shouldn't you use a LPF?

Makes sense to me - it's the res you're looking at.

Indeed, the HPF will cut away too low -unaudible?- signals, while the resonance amplifies signals just above that. Just like an LPF set to high cutoff frequency and resonance can make a high frequency 'whistle'...

absolutly brilliant.

Thanks!
