Heavy synth clip

Sign in to disble this ad
"Heavy" was all I could think of to describe this. Though I suppose "bone crushing" would fit aswell.

Someone on another forum I frequent is looking for this synth tone. As the effects guy of that forum it was my responsibility to find out how he could achieve this, or something close to it. I personally cannot stand this tone, but he seems to really need it.

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks.

Ridiculously heavy, I love that sound! I'll be keeping track of this question as I'd like an answer myself

Seems to me like a synthy, gated fuzz could cop something like this. Maybe a Chunk Systems Brown Dog? Or feeding one of those crazy Devi Ever pedals into a gate (or even the Brown Dog)?

My very first thought hearing this is that one of Devi Ever's pedals could do something similar. She makes several gated fuzzes that could do something similar.

Is that all bass?! I've always thought it was keyboards that made that kind of sound!!

It's some kind of fuzz + envelope running on a distorted channel. That's my guess.
