what exactly is it? you all know when you hear a fat bass or a thick lead, and some synths are just disgusting but it's hard to define what makes it fat. phat if you want i suppose alternatively what music makes you gorge on dominos |

are we hearing it just fill the stereo field? certain magic frequencies or intervals? some reverb witchery? |

you're focused on the synth and the bass but the you directly linked is phat in the DRUMS. That's when it's the best, B |

oh just sampling an analog source can sound just as good as an analog source, but it can get repetitive, and i simply could not resist sampling this comic book guy reviewing an analog synth guitar pedal and insisting it was Real Analog, No, Sampling, True, Phatness and i am just talking out of my butt. but i think it goes back to when digital synths first showed up, and they were cool for a while, but then, actually, this is like some casio phase distortion synthesis shit, it worked for a while in TMBG trax but really this sounds thin, tinny, tin busy and so then we're humping the old stuff, and my real feeling is, like -- there's something you get in a physical circuit humming around. that i'm a fan of the idea that consciousness actually incorporates physical modelling, like reverb in a giant 400lb plate instead of a software model. it's a strained analogy, but imagine if you had a tiny plate reverb in your brain and part of the secret sauce is the brain just goes and runs the sound through that, and that's how it knows but the whole phatness thing -- shut up. it can get deep, like synths having a personality, but it's mostly that they're cheap old noisy circuits and whoever designed it spent quite a bit of time being like "this is shit, but what's the best shit i can make it?" while designing it and so it's fuzzy and noisy but finally it stays in tune and the guy designing it is like "good enough" |

, just a shout-out from a previous tangent, in a thread, i dunno, it was named similar... "druk q s" and then i've sampled the zelda noise and try that on your quote unquote anonymous soundclot. i'm comfortable in feeling it's both clever and something his nibs could never get away with himself |

it's dr. drew saying druk q s if anyone cares. |

Kool Rock-Ski sole survivor it sounds like the timecop guy that did the equalizer music. and this is like, that was a good video to post, but sorry, i'm getting horribly distracted in synths and drum machines in the soundtrack and just to be an extra, extra dick shuki levy from the french version of the inspector gadget soundtrack, clearly on a full decked out analog setup, modulars. it sounds FANTASTIC |

you may have a point, i've never really used the spectral analyzer much in wavelab but i bet it's "fuller" for an obese synth part. thing is, sometimes synths that have had the middle totally filter-scraped can be very fat, as long as they get backed by bass eventually. i'd say it's more than just harmonics |
||||||||
|
|

|
...and, well, sure. white noise also has rich harmonic content. but effectively something something overtones and pleasant fuzziness |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and also, that track i posted before your post there, also yes, that's a real bass guitar in there. but the way the synths stack with the vocals, actually |

compression and distortion dillinja used distortion a lot to get a louder fatter sound too much compression and distortion can make it sound not good though |
||||||||

|
|
epic + umbro = harmonic distortion |

|

Epic + mermaidman = happy |

What's better? A fat bass or a thick lead? I don't know, it depends on what I'm gonna do with it... Fat bass is the sound of an elephant farting i like both thick leads and fat bass.. like i said, just hearing it makes me crave dominos so when you say thicker (bass or lead) are you saying there's more of it? i.e. what about phat is phat because it's a big sound in the sense that you can hear it easily? that makes total sense - phat bass is a _presence_ in the mix The most phattest thing is having a fat ass from eating too much Dominos and not getting off your ass to go get some! I know, i'm so clever... fat bass is just an illusion that makes you want more bread. fat bass. if it's got big room sounding synths then yeah phat sounds like 'phat'. fat in the real world sounds like this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9hIkZjM_n6Q) Fat bass is like a hotdog...flavorful and tasty! I've always said "Phat" as in Fucked up. Phat Bass is like a Hot Dog, you just want more. And what do they put on their? Ketchup. And so we say "Fat ass bass" which is "Ketchup bass". [end of text] |
