So without further delay, let’s get started! Rest assured that the same effect can be created easily in almost every VST.
Using just one VST synthesizer and one oscillator in a few easy steps you will be making sub-bass drops in no time. This is why I want to show you how you can easily make a sub-bass drop from scratch to fit your song tempo.
If you try to time stretch it, it will probably lose its original sound and you will hear some unwanted glitches. The problem that sometimes occurs is that the length of the sub-bass is too short or too long. Although it is true that the samples make a good starting point, you really need to get creative to get the best sound out of them. Moreover, you can find it in various sample packs. You’ve probably heard this effect many times in popular electronic dance music. At the same time, it does feel like somebody just dropped a bass bomb, when that effect is played. Have you ever wanted to make those sub-bass drops that you so often hear when you are watching movie trailers? The ones used to create some dramatic effect? The reason why people call it a bass drop is because, without subs, it really does cut out the low-end in the entire mix for that moment.
