How to make a Slap House Bass like VIZE in Serum?


Here is our step by step instruction:

STEP #1

  • - Extend the release time of ENV 1 a little
  • - Use the default waveform for OSC A
  • - Add some voices for this OSC
  • - Put the OSC two octaves lower
  • - Set detune and random phase of OSC A to zero

STEP #2
  • - Activate filter MG Low 24 for OSC A and set the cutoff to zero
  • - Go to ENV 2, shorten the decay a bit, set the sustain to about 2% and slightly extend the release time
  • - Connect ENV 2 with the cutoff filter (drag)
  • - Reduce the cutoff range to 75%

STEP #3
  • - Add the SUB OSC with a sine wave
  • - Activate 'Direct out'
  • - Put the SUB two octaves down
  • - Set level to zero and connect it with ENV 2
  • - Reduce the level range to 75%

STEP #4
  • - Activate hyper / dimension in the FX TAB and mix it very slightly (4%)
  • - Add a compressor, activate multi band mode, increase the gain
  • - Set the mix level to zero and connect it to ENV 2 (range also about 75%)
  • - Add an EQ, set the low EQ type to LPF and decrease the Q a bit

STEP #5
  • - Go to ENV 3, shorten the decay to about 40ms and set sustain to zero
  • - Connect it to the coarse pitch of OSC A and set it to about 24 (SHIFT+ALT+CLICK on pitch for one direction)
  • - Activate NOISE OSC and select a kicking noise for even more attack
  • - Enable on shot mode of the NOISE OSC and increase the level

STEP #6
  • - Make some fine adjustments to achieve your preferred sound


THAT'S IT!
