Subbass - HOW?

[psicolor]

When I try to make a subbass sound with the voyager, the sound is missing a lot
of bottom end. If for example OSC1 is set to 32' octave and trinagle wave, the
fundamental tone is not hearable, because it's too silent! Same occurs with
16'. At 8' the fundamental tone comes through clearly.

Does anyone understand this?

It's not because of my speakers, i can make deep triangle subbasses with
digital synths or software without problems.

I played a little with the FM Mode and sometimes the results are deep and loud
frequencies, which i can't make with fm turned off.

Try a resultant

Take two oscillators, second one tuned a fifth above. Use a low cutoff frequency on the filter.

If that doesn't do it, the TIII will.

Make sure that: 1, Resonance is turned down completely (and the filter cutoff is only down enough to take the edge off the triangle); 2, The keyboard range is set to "Null"; 3, You have the oscillator volume and the master volume turned way up; and 4, I'd suggest single oscillator. Just tried this, and it worked pretty well

Another way would be to use the filter as the audio source, resonance all the way up, cutoff low enough for that oomph. Then use the keyboard cont. amount to get the filter to scale. Then use the Amount to filter to tune the filter to the appropriate key and you should have a pretty neat sounding sub bass.

Did the same (of cause), it goes deep, but it's far away from the lower end of the hearable frequencies.

Does anybody know, what component of the synthesizer is responsible for the weak low end?

Yesterday I was in the shop working on a breakdown section and almost ripped the woofers to shreds laying down a sub bass track. Single osc, smooth wave, no res, vol full on, tracking with tube optical compression on the way to tape. It is a really nice thing.

what a shame....
the lo cut of the mixer channel was on
I'll test it tomorrow, when the neighbours are awake.
