Hey all,
I recently bought Reason 6 and want to start getting into creating my own "sounds".
I am learning all the different parts of what a synthesizer does like what an oscillator is, ADSR, filters etc etc and I know all that will help me figure out how certain sounds are made BUT my main question is where do I start?!
EX. I am a big fan of Dada Life. I love that phat, thick bass that use in all their tracks.
Where would I start to try and mimic that specific sound with Reason?
Would I start completely from scratch and just twist and turn knobs until I get something similar or should I find a patch that sounds similar and try and tweak it, to mimic Dada Life's?
Also, Lucky Date has a ton of Youtube videos where he shows you how to program a sound. How does he figure them out?!
I know i'm rambling so I'll sum it up:
HOW do YOU make your own sound/figure out how to make another person's sound?
Start from scratch? Build off stock patches?
Whats a good place for a beginner to start?
THANKS!
