paulo 4,157 Posted September 2, 2020 (edited) Hmmmmm.........after months and months of thinking that PB freebies had become pretty lame, they go and prove me wrong. Might be time for me to finally buy Scaler 2. Having waited soooooooooo looooooooooonnnnnnggggggg for it's release I decided that I might as well wait a bit longer for the inevitable sale (that and the fact that even after all that time the initial release version still seemed to be very broken) but throwing Carbon into the equation makes it feel like I should do it now rather than just buy something cheap that I don't really want/need just to get the freebie.

Use an iLok and not your drive. After a system upgrade all of my iLok authorizations on the drive need to be reset. I'm waiting on them to reset. Their support is slow to non existent. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chris.r 1,556 Posted September 3, 2020 I have a question to you guys. I was listening to this ujam carbon video and there is a pulsating synth sound in the beginning. What instruments are best for making this sound? I've heard about one and it's the Zebra but it's way out of my price range because it's never on a big discount, but maybe something else? I mean, one could use an arpeggiated synth bass sound but there's some liveness to it in this vid that I'm liking. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Like here: In that case I will retype what I wrote before editing it out 😛 SynthMaster and/or SubLab both at decent prices and SynthMaster seems like an all around synth that may do what you want. SubLab is great for 808, Bass, and any sub/low end sound. Try the demo of both of them to find out. Keep in mind that it probably is the combination of synth and FX that may get the sound you want as well. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would have thought so too. I have Synthmaster and I like it but I feel it's giving me a more static sound than what I hear in this video. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But that is not cheap. It will definitely get the job done though, any for that matter. 😛 Edited September 3, 2020 by Hillmy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The design might be evolutionary in what it can do, but always felt like a totally different effect (and not one I'd use as much. And believe it or not, I've played one of those monstrosities.

I forgot about sknote because it's sometimes tricky to make his plugins work in Cakewalk. 13 hours ago, Hillmy said: Have you tried SubLab? But the one on the movie sounds like a real analog hardware to me. I believe you can fake it in the software but one needs to know what software to use, like I said I know about u-he synths but that's out of my price range and I'm not planning on buying them anytime nearby.
