Quick Tip: How to Create a Reese Bassline in Massive

Tutorial Details

In today’s quick tip, I am going to show you how to create simple, but very effective reese basslines in Native Instruments Massive. We’ll start out by creating the reese itself, then go over a few ways to make it stand out even more. Let’s get started!

    Excellent, as a beginner with synths, I love to see others fidget with all the knobs. I teaches me a lot!
    The only thing I missed here is hearing a before and after when you change the settings, it helps to make out the differences.

    Nice tutorial. I actually just created a Massive Reese patch the other night as well.

    I think one thing that makes Massive so nice is that you can actually detune two of the oscillators, beat them against each other, then high-pass filter them. Then, use the third oscillator as a sub oscillator, and send it through a different filter, with no filtering applied. Then the synth output doesn’t have weird phasing effects in the low-frequencies, and the phasing is only going on in the upper-end of the spectrum, making for a better overall bass. Maybe I need to do a tut on that…
