All the way from the start, I could feel it in my heart like...
All the way from the start... what's going on out there I'm Sean Divine hope you all are
doing well today we're taking a look at a new plugin
it's called SubLab what's that you haven't heard of SubLab yet? well my
friend you're in for a treat let's check it out all right so just laying down a
little bassline for us to use we're gonna create a sound from scratch this
is just a default patch here in SubLab and so all you're hearing was just a
sine wave from the synth section so we've got a couple of different sections here
that we can combine together to kind of create the perfect 808 or bass sound
we've got a sampler section so we can drag in you know your favorite kicks
your favorite sub basses 808 samples you've got some cool looping features so
if you have a short sample you want to stretch it out and this is gonna
automatically detect the pitch as well really useful and then unique to SubLab
they have built this X-Sub technology where you're generating some really low
harmonic content sub harmonic content and then you can also generate upper
harmonics and then control you know at what point we're generating that and how
much SubLab also ships with a lot of really cool sample content I did some
sound design for it also have some presets in here so let's just go ahead
and load one of these up and we're gonna start building this sound here we're
gonna combine our kick with the synth here so let's go ahead I'm going to
bring the sample up in the mixer
with this sample I really just want to get more of the low-mids just to give us
a little bit of a transient there so I'm gonna move this up and we'll bring the
high cut down
all right now let's turn on to the distortion unit very very cool
distortion that's included in sub lab we've got some different sounds here I'm
gonna leave it on dark drive I'm gonna turn the fatness down we'll turn the
drive all the way up and then I'm gonna feed the synth section to the distortion
and I'm going to turn that down let's move over to the X-sub here and now
let's generate some low harmonics and then some higher harmonics if you've got
a sub or you got some big speakers this thing can literally shake your insides
got a handy width control here and then we also have some maximization we got a
limiter brickwall limiter we just leave that up there it's a zero pull this down
a little bit finally we've got a great glide section so I'm going to turn on
legato and then we can do this based upon our times here I'm gonna go to 1/16
and then let's just load up that line and let's just say we wanted to add a
little bit of a glide here at the beginning
so we've also got a cool compressor as well as the sidechain so if you want to
sidechain the sampler section with a kick some kind of transient there with
the synth engine very easy to do that there's a lot of different presets in
here let's just go to some of my presets which are the divine bass and if we go
to maybe like the afterburner let's just see what that's like a lot of different
tones in here if you're looking for those really dirty gritty subs that are
gonna sit well in the mix you can create an infinite release
out of any sample in your library with this lot features packed into this that
cater themselves perfectly for building these 808 and low-end sounds that you're
hearing in all of your favorite music these days and you can dial this stuff
in very quickly as you heard you know we created that preset in a couple of
minutes and it already was fitting well and had that thump that we needed so
check this out it's available on the future audio workshop website and also
I'm going to put a coupon code for you guys and it will be valid for a limited
time once this video goes up so take advantage of that it will not be around
forever a lot of fun you're gonna have with this instrument I know I am already
in my productions if you have any questions about SubLab feel free to
leave it below we'll talk to you soon
