E F F# and G are the most often used due to the fact that they are in a bit of a sweet spot frequency wise - around 38-50 Hz, where sub is the most powerful and deep, but is still audible, and most sound systems are able to play it back.
E is a bit too low! Astrix uses G#, G, F, F#, etc.
@@RP-vq4wd Good grief. E (and F and F# and G, and G#, etc) are not frequencies; they're pitches. Their frequency depends on what octave they're in and how the instrument or VST in question is pitched. Furthermore, the narrator said he's in F minor; the notes in F minor are F , G, A♭, B♭, C, D♭, E♭ . I can't believe how many "music producers" can't be bothered to learn music theory.
@@pnartg Since we are talking about the very low frequency bass range here there is only one relevant octave anyway, so specifying just the note is completely OK. I don't get why you're so snarky.
@@pnartg Obviously he is talking about the notes E1 = 41.20Hz, F1= 43.65Hz, F#1 = 46.25Hz and G1 = 49.00Hz.
@@RP-vq4wd I thought that
This layout is so intuitive, and I love how it blends so well in with Ableton. Not only that, this dude is one of the best music teachers on UA-cam. Nicely done!
Thanks so much :)!! I am very happy to hear that :)
4:40 this is a awsome basseline right here!
Thanks :D
This suddenly cleared so many things... Thanks a lot!!!
AWESOME !! I really appreciate the quality of your tutorial !!
loved it! everything i needed to know, quick smooth and explained in such a simple way!
This is exactly what I needed to learn the terminology of this genres baselines and how to make them 🙌🏽 awesome!!!
this is the first video i watched 2 years ago after i started producing trance and now i just bought sundog and i can't see a way to forgive myself for wasting all this time producing without it, this video is amazing even now that i understand the fundamentals this made learning sundog an absolute breeze :D
:D - thanks a lot, Jeff :)!
Killer - even for people who do not use Sundog. THANKS. 🤗👊
Nice video. I can't wait to try these patterns in my productions.
This was very proficiently explained, thank you for that, you got me interested in how music that i love is being created!
Same!
Awesome tutorial. Just what I've been looking for. Thank you.
Thanks :)! I am happy that it was helpful :)
Wow, this is a great video. I bought sundog a long time ago but didn't really use it properly, this has me excited to go back to it!

richtig geil gemacht und gut erklärt! weiter so!
würde gerne weiter in dieses thema eintauchen .. mit bearbeiten von psy vocals usw...
WOW YOU MADE US FLOW!
Pretty cool video! If there was the such sensible video about how to make the whole psy-trance composition with all the steps from absolute zero to its final professional release it was more much cool!
Great video. You got yourself a new subscriber!
This sundog looks like exactly what I've been looking for for my production!! Definitely downloading this. Thank you
I love everything about this. Thank you
Happy that you like it 😊
Very informative thank you!
Very good.
Such a great video!!
Thanks :)
thank you for this tutorial - looking to make some Psytrance on my Akai Force, and seeing the construction of popular basslines will be helpful for me to make this style that I love listening to 🙂
I wish you all the best for your productions :)!
amazing! thank you!
My pleasure :)
love it man
Thank you very much!
Thanks so much!
Sehr gutes video vielen dank !
Thank you!!!
Thank you, Sir!
danke ich bin dir sehr dankbar
It's also very important to have basic understanding of scales and match the bassline notes with the rest of your channels to make it sound more in tune and not dissonance (unless u specifically want to sound like that)
example: if your bassline is G# make sure to use G#'s scale melodies and sound effects it will make your track sound more professional and will help you continue your track
Omg. Danke das du dieses Programm vorstellst. Ich will schon lange psytrance machen aber es braucht so lange als anfänger bis man ne gut klingende bassline erzeugt auf ableton das ich noch nicht mal wirklich zum melodischen Teil kam bisher. Vielen dank
wir können ja miteinander wirken.. bin aus köln und mache mit ableton live, traktor und kontrol s8 musik und das schon etwas länger. würde mich gerne mit dir verbinden.
@@psytoolpsytrance-tooltime8212 Hey liebend gerne . Find ich cool das du das schreibst :)
@@psytoolpsytrance-tooltime8212 du kannst mir ja gerne mal auf Facebook schreiben. Dann kann ich dir da meine Nummer senden. Mein Name ist dort Michail Iordanidis und ich hab ein Pb mit einem Hund :)
Thx for the video btw
Wow thanks man !
bombe erklärt sehr viel informationen ohne viel rumgeeiere
you r a hero!!
what an awesome psytrance bassline
thanks!! :)
Please make Psytro tutorial , I fell in love with Psytro 😍😍
amazing video
Thanks :)
Remove a little bit of sustain/decay to avoid that "granular yellin saturate" bass effect and make it less "flowing" and a more punchy, reduce enveloppe and you're good!
DANKE DAFÜR!!!
Very good tutorial. Any news about Root note issue in Sundog? I mean in Sundog when you using chord inversions, base note is not root note. And it makes your base wrong, especially in EDM. I have to use another plugin (BlueArp) to play root note right.
This feature request is still on my list (quite high), but I cannot say when it will appear in a release.
2:32 Its the intro of Martin Garrix - Animals. Although he claims it to be a sample from a vengeance pack he used, I think this is how it was made in the first place.
nice
Thx for this Tutorial...🥂👍
The Darkside is with you!
Is your website down?
Sorry for this dumb question - do i need to purchase both ableton and sundog sound studio? Im having such a hard time with Ableton alone and its the software came free with the keyboard i purchased. but it looks like sundog is easier to maneuver ? Pls let me know thanks!
The principles also apply if you only work with Ableton Live. Sundog is a tool which is useful to write harmonic melodies and basslines easily. But you can also do this manually in Ableton Live (it usually takes more time, but in the beginning it's a good idea to learn your DAW first).
SUPER HELPUL
Spelling.exe has stopped working :(
How is the Psy-Genre Called when there is a nice Variation in the bassline?
Cool! Maybe you could also do a tutorial on Psytrance/Goa Scales and Melodies.
Thanks, maybe in a future tutorial :). I would say the best scale for melodies is Phrygian (sounds very mystical/oriental), followed by Minor.
@@feelyoursoundHQ Yes phrygian or phrygian dominant. check this ua-cam.com/video/DqIBsbcwATs/v-deo.html
If you could do a tutorial on how you created the bass sound in massive it would be helpful.
Thanks
You can download the Massive preset at the bottom of this page for free: feelyoursound.com/articles/psytrance-basslines/. There is also a section about Sound Design with a link to a UA-cam tutorial by another producer. I highly recommend his video, because he knows way more than me about sound design ;).
Can I use LoopBe1 on Win11?

Hello
Hi Anna, I think you are speaking of Ableton Live here (I see no other yellow points in the background ;). It is the DAW that plays back all the instruments. Sundog is connected to Ableton Live via MIDI.
@@feelyoursoundHQ thnak you so so much
quiero
Great lesson! And an excellent channel!
However, two problems arose:
1) How to correctly connect Sundog Studio to Ableton so that everything works correctly...
2) Is it possible to connect third-party (analog) synthesizers to Sundog Studio? If yes, how?
Please make a video on this topic! I'm sure it will be very useful to many!
Thank you for your work, buddy! I shake your hand!
Thank you :)!! You can find a setup guide for Ableton here: www.feelyoursound.com/sundog-with-ableton-live/.
And yes, you can route the resulting MIDI notes from Sundog to an external synth. Simply set the synth as your MIDI Out Device in the Sundog settings.
diss woss a werry gudd tutorriel

Wollte gerade selbst kommentieren: saaave is der deutsch😂
Haha, wir haben ihn exposed
hahahha krass wa

Und was tut das zur Sache ?
Sequencer is Ableton? Own or separate VST?
The main program is Sundog Song Studio. It generates the MIDI notes and then sends them to Ableton Live via a virtual MIDI cable. The sounds are coming from synths inside Ableton then :).
What's the name of the program u are using? Thanks 👍
It's called Sundog Song Studio. You can get it at feelyoursound.com/sundog/
@@feelyoursoundHQ thanks a lot gona try to do my own psy trance 😂 gona be fun
HELP MEE... how do you synthesize such a bass
Please take a look here: feelyoursound.com/articles/psytrance-basslines/
There is a section "Some thoughts on sound design" with a link to a good tutorial. And at the bottom of the page you can find a Massive preset that I created for this video.
Wich software do U use?
It's Sundog Song Studio: feelyoursound.com/sundog/
❤
Which software is this? Can i use this in logic?
This is Sundog Song Studio. You can get it at feelyoursound.com/sundog/. Instructions for Logic: www.feelyoursound.com/sundog-with-logic/
what is the plugin?
Sundog... check the description
Plz tell me it is use FL Studio....???
Yes, you can use it with FL Studio as well! You can find a guide here: www.feelyoursound.com/sundog-with-fl-studio/
👍🏼
What’s the name of the vst you are using?
I use Massive for the bass sound. You can download my preset here: feelyoursound.com/articles/psytrance-basslines/
@@feelyoursoundHQ and the sub bass preset??
@@JoaoFerreira-vm3uo Uhhh... I think I simply used a standard sine wave for that. Any synth will be good for that.
what is this vst tho?
The sequencer is a standalone app called Sundog Song Studio. You can send the notes from Sundog to your DAW via MIDI. More info at feelyoursound.com/sundog/
I used NI Massive to create the bass sound. You can download the patch hiere: feelyoursound.com/articles/psytrance-basslines/
Whats this
Software name bro
It's Sundog Song Studio :). You can find it here: feelyoursound.com/sundog
Quick and almost everything you need to start!
Maybe some decent speakers, a ok(ish) interface, some acoustic treatment, a good synth and some knowledge about Audio Engineering…😂
Everything is part of a big interesting puzzle ;)
Bro, das ist so geil!!!! von einem Deutsch sprechende Ami!!!
Danke :D
after you said .."welcome back to another..." my brain went straight to "...weekly dose of aviation" (lucaas)
LOL i ever thaught the gallop are 3 notes too but with a hard sidechain that it Sounds like that 😹🙈
Nice video m8
But you guys know that is pointless saying you're in F minor since you just play the one note- that is F -, or a chromatic ascending line, like -FAF -FG#F -FF#F and so on
It's neither minor or major scale. It is just the chromatic scale
The scale aspects become more important as soon as you add other instruments (e.g. for background and lead melodies, arps etc.). As it is very rare that a song only needs a bass and a kick, I think it makes sense to use scales even in this bassline tutorial.
Yes. Now that you're saying, it does makes sense.
WOOOOOW ITS PRETTY SHIT MEN U GENIUS

i wouldnt say that a offbeat bassline doesnt fit to goa trance, i mean look at the older neelix productions, one of the best psy tracks imo. i think people should not define a genre because of a particular bassline or anything.
Yes, offbeat basslines can be useful for psytrance as well. There's always some space to bend the "rules" here ;). However, I would say that the sixteenth-notes-basslines are sooo common in this genre, that they are a rather easy way to get "that psytrance feeling" going. There are many aspects that shape a genre (e.g. sound design, scales, arrangement). Sticking to the rules in some of these aspects make it easier to act more freely in other aspects - without leaving the genre.
@Sven GhostOnAcid that's right bro (psytrance will never die)
you actually didnt covered the topic how to make psy bass line . you did how to arrange psy bass notes . hope you get my point.
Man hört sofort das du deutscher bist😅😂
Liebe geht raus nach dresden
The only melodic psy trance track that heard of is Marnik & SMACK - Gam Gam
well well Navarro that’s not psy trance
Virtual Riot? Are you German?
Yep, I am from Germany :). However, I am not Virtual Riot ;)
