RE: How to create the perfect bassline
A bassline should be simple and direct,but comply somehow with the groove created by your beat
so much depends on your beat,try to make it fit in there by punching bass notes out between
kick drums,then adding more notes at random,but always begin with a clean pattern usually
in time with bass drums.Try low cutoff ,mid resonance,low envelope 303 for some punchy low
stuff,or some synths will get you a cool smooth sustained low end,another extreme that hits
hard...these are my opinions ...hope they help somebody....please E-mail me here in Ireland
for extra waffle. lmikhs@eei.ericsson.se oh and watch out for Global Dance Initiative coming
