The Bunker. Chicago House Bass in Ableton Live: Subtractive Synthesis, Analogue, Envelopes & Filters. Today we are bringing you an exclusive taster from our new Sound Design in Ableton Live Course which launched in Jan 2012.
In this tutorial Danny J Lewis demonstrates how to create a classic Chicago house style bass using subtractive synthesis and Ableton’s Analogue. Subtractive synthesis is the ‘classic’ method of making sounds and is known for its warm and round character. If you are after contemporary high frequency energy sounds like those in some forms of dubstep it’s not going to be your first port of call but it’s an essential string in a sound designers bow. Techniques that you learn in relation to subtractive synthesis will be applicable across other Ableton devices such as Simpler, Sampler and effects like the Autofilter. The Quietus.
