A quick Ableton bass harmonics tip
🕑 Added 2022-03-04 18:08:04 +0000 UTCQuick Ableton bass mixing tip:
Vinyl Distortion can add some really good harmonics and grit to your bassline – without hurting the sub at all.
Start with a pure sine, add vinyl distortion, then add a bit of Saturator after that, and you get a really beefy bass with amazing harmonics that'll cut thru any mix.
Saturator makes it kind of "round" and that's sort of old news, but I've recently realised that Vinyl Distortion can add nice sawtooth-style vibe ("non-round") to the bass while keeping the sub in tact (sawtooth oscillators usually don't have that), so do try it out.
Kind of just recently discovered how good Vinyl Distortion can sound, so will def add that to my bass mixing toolbox and wanted to share!
