Greetings! I've been trying to make the sound, "noisiastylebass.zip" that user NevJR posted here (about halfway down the page) http://www.dogsonacid.com/threads/pleas ... 099/page-3 (http://www.dogsonacid.com/threads/please-help-me-to-decode-noisias-reese-bass-sound-design.760099/page-3)

He explains the sound creation by saying: "...Sub (i drew a really warm sub sound), Midrange (I drew in a custom wave, although a saw, square combo will get you most of the way there), filtering (best trick for reese's are the peak filters with the comb filter detuning), bitcrushing (little tip: automate the SR decimate filter on the high end). I then added slight reverb to the mids & highs using zebra's built-in reverb. The only thing I did outside of zebra was use a slight clipper to tighten it up (I really hate compression)..."

I have a feeling that I just need to put more hours into deconstructing and reverse engineering more patches (I've just downloaded a bunch from the Zebra family page at u-he) to really develop my understanding of why sounds sound like they do in Zebra, however if anyone could help with more specifics I'd be much obliged. His explanation was too broad and with a deep synth like Zebra specifics would be nice.

If I could create sounds like that within Zebra, I don't think I'd ever use another synth again! And even though I don't know how at my current skill level I'm at least excited that it's possible.

Cheers!
