drum and bass leads, step by step synthesis @uheplugins

Подробнее о видео

Load up Hive by u-he or a synth of your choice, and let’s make a hard-hitting drum & bass rave-ready lead from scratch.

Hard-hitting, rave-ready sounds have been a crowd favorite for years, and today, we’re going to use u-he Hive to build sounds in that vibe – specifically a lead.

The only samples we used were drum hits from Splice’s Noisia sample pack, a distorted guitar from Sample Focus, and some one shots from Ableton’s core library. You can use anything, though, as the focus today is on synthesis.
