If you're asking me to defend my
claim
I can't verbally describe what I hear
exactly,
but you cannot disclude the bad sampled &
well known
sampled group from the list cuz alot of whats out
there
falls under this category. If you use sampled bass, fine,
make it less obvious but the truth is, you'd rather be making
your own, so use your time to learn how. But I
don't want to
get into the morality of
it all cuz it doesnt matter.
Audibly there are subtle differences in fluidity
and sound you can
hear between generated bass and sampled bass. Samples
usually triggered at the same note & speed
are harder to
distinguish as samples, but since bass is used
like a lead
instument in DnB, it tends to change notes, and
this is where
you hear it most. Like when the LFO speed on
the reese bass
becomes slower as the note goes lower, that
really obvious difference
is a characteristic that can be picked out in
other less obvious
examples.
I have a friend
who can instantly tell between analog & digitally
generated sounds.. I've tried to ask him what he hears
that is so different, and it doesnt make sense
when he
describes it. But
he can hear it.. why, because he's worked with
analog generated sounds extensivly.
I don't claim to be an expert on figuring out
sampled bass,
cuz I don't care about it, or use it,
but it's done more often
than not, and more often than not I CAN pick it
out.

I'm intrigued!
Please explain how you can pick out the difference between a
sampled, or created bassline in a trax. Excluding the obvious such as
'identical to well known sampled trax', or 'badly sampled
bassline'.
Peace

The key to making a good bass is knowing your audio theory
well..
and knowing what to add a touch of and what
to add alot of.
Knowing where to place it &
where to space it.
You can spend hours & hours trying to get one and still
not have it,
don't get frustrated, just keep
trying.. you'll get it one day, and it will
be worth
it..
When i figured out my formula for it, i was as happy as a
little school
girl.
and you
realize all the time you spent to get the enlightenment, was more
than worth it.
Now, having done that, I can instanlty pick out a sampled
bass sound in
a tune and it kinda disgusts me that
half of what makes up drum & bass
is being
ripped off so readily. Even by big name guys.
Don't be one of those guys.
