The thread title is such that it should maximise it's visibility within Google searches. NO, this is not about bass or leads Play around with parameters. If it doesn't sound spot on first time round don't panic. Try again. Practice practice practice. The Standard version will do you fine for DJing.
As well as Ableton, Skrillex relies heavily on plugins to build a lot of his sounds. Some of the plugins he uses for his basslines include:. The FM8 is a plugin by Native Instruments. As well as creating your own sounds, it includes over preset sounds.
You can also buy an upgrade from Select to Full. Another plugin he uses is Massive, again by Native Instruments. Massive is a synth that gives a producer complete control over things like the way the sound oscillates as well as being able to manipulate the waveform and modulation. Aiming to emulate a real-world synthesizer it incorporates everything from oscillators filters as well as adding effects like distortion, phaser, delay or reverb.
Again all of these plugins allow you to manipulate and change every single aspect of a sound. This is how individual DJs and producers can create their own unique style. Another synth plug-in that Skrillex has mentioned in multiple interviews is the Vanguard analog synthesizer.
This again allows you to manipulate oscillations, envelopes, the amplitude of music as well as delays and reverbs. The question of what software does Skrillex use for effects probably has a thousand answers.
Especially given how many plugins are available for Ableton. That said, some of the ones he has discussed are…. Skrillex has been known to use the Ohmicide distortion plugin. This allows you to pass in sound that you have created with one of the above plugins and then distort it and manipulate it further. As the manufacturers themselves describe, you can change the sound from slight dearth dirt, to pure carnage. Trash2 by iZotope is another distortion and effects plug-in that has been known to be used by Skrillex.
It is using plugins like these that he can get his heavy, dirty sound. Push to see price on Amazon. He has discussed vocals a couple of times, however. It is designed specifically to work with vocals and allows you to change everything from the length of notes so being able to change the pitch. Editing pitch allows you to correct mistakes by singers or in extreme cases you can actually turn a bad singer into a good one. Melodyne essentially allows you to treat vocals like an instrument and manipulate them in a computer after recording.
When you hear crazy vocals that have obviously been manipulated electronically, then there is a high chance it was done in Melodyne. Another tool a lot of music producers use for human vocals are tools called Vocoders. However, Skrillex himself has stated that while he does use them, this tends not to be for vocals. For all his vocal recording, Skrillex has said in interviews that he records everything through a Shure SM58 microphone plugged into his Sapphire audio interface.
Skrillex has stated that he uses the Focusrite Saffire Pro to make up a vital part of his mobile setup.
