What do you use to get that Wooshing Sound
What do you use to get that Wooshing Sound Posted on: 28.12.2010 by Kimberely Riccobene Often used in buildups, and on the first 4 - 8 kicks on a break...I use FL and Ableton. FL is great as a VSt! | |

| Josette Parquette 02.01.2011 | In FL. Just take a 3osc, put one osc on feedback and mute the others. Just throw a filter or even a free filter on it for a different sound. I usually put a little bit of reverb and depending on the genre either cut most of the high frequencies or not take any of them out. Phasers also sound good ,even a Flanger sometimes haha. If you have Massive, do this all in Massive. Because it's Massive, you can make the most original, interesting filter sweeps. Just fool around with it! |
| Aracely Mcalvey 31.12.2010 | I use Reason, but the principles could likely translate to just about any other DAW you're using. This is my starting point for buildups (or whatever the proper nomenclature is): I'll take an instance of THOR. I'll load up the first oscillator slot with whatever oscillator fits my taste. I'll load up the second oscillator slot with a noise oscillator set to pink noise. Adjust the noise color to taste. I'll also set the Attack, Decay, Sustain, and Release to whatever sounds good for the song. In the sequencer, I'll draw out a note. I'll then automate the pitch to bend from low to high. Alternative to tweaking the amp envelope, as mentioned above, you can always automate the master volume as well. After that, I slap on a 2 band EQ, and boost frequency A to taste, keeping the spread minimal. I'll then automate that to sweep across as the note slowly builds. That gives it that "WOOOSH!" effect to go along with the buildup. And as others have said, you can make it decay, or pitch back down once the beat kicks in, if that's what you're going for. For the sake of efficiency, later on, I might even solo that synth and bounce its track, and trim it to use as a sample later on. If you made it, you might as well save it... |
| Dana Ordinario 30.12.2010 | Thanks for the link to that site theres some interesting stuff on there for sure. Does anyone have any other sites that are similar that maybe are not focused so much on ableton I only dabble in ableton so something geared more towards say logic or even traktor such as this site but with different videos would be awesome. |
| Liz Mirabito 30.12.2010 | Tom Cosm has posted a couple of really cool tutorials on this very subject for Abelton users (though the principles of course are applicable to users of any decent DAW) - you can find them on his site cosm.co.nz. Lots of other cool stuff there too. |
| Janyce Jardon 30.12.2010 | yeah, sidechained whitenoise, sometimes i add a phazer, flanger or a filter sweep to get it to have that kind of windy effect. Usually put a long release on it aswel, but depending on the track not allways. Or if its for a build up then its the reverse and has a long attack. Usually do a "quieter" one just before the drop, usually with a phazer/flanger and or filter sweep, and no or minimal sidechaining, then on/just after the drop i do a pure white noise one heavily sidechained, dont filter sweep it, but still have a highpass filter on it set to at least half way with a bit of resonnance. |
| Ling Zambada 29.12.2010 | autofilter sweep on white noise with sidechain compression to the kick drum |
