SVF and XY Modulation in Sytrus



For this project I had to use SVF setting and use XY modulation in the sytrus channel. I started by designing the sound I wanted in sytrus. After that was done I started to write the melody. For this song unlike most songs I make I decided to make it slower. I also wanted to use more bass. For the bass I used the BASS PUNCH preset in FL Slayer. I doubled it in the mid section so the riff could be heard better. For the guitar I used the basic settings in Fl Slayer. For the chorus I used CHR_HEAVEN_C6.

Frequency Modulation in Sytrus



For this project using sytrus I had to make 4 different synths. To make the synths I just followed the instructions and added the chorus using CHR_HEAVEN_6 and the bass using FL slayer with the preset of BASS punch . For the main riff I used the synth part of the song Dogs Can Grow Beards All Over by the band The Devil Wears Prada. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g6aNV_xKSto) I then wrote the bass and accompany parts in myself that would make it seem creepy. I also wanted to have good drums as always. I also used an automation clip on the frequency cutoff for one of the supporting synths.
