I need that bass sound from Iggy Azaleas Song fancy

Dunno if this helps but maybe you can study how it is made in Massive in this video, and try to recreate it in Sytrus?

EDIT: Here's what I found from someone that tried to recreate it:

Try a low saw wave with a fast attack and decay, and some low pass filtering. Put a downward sloping envelope on the LP filter and you'll be almost there.

rasputin, you know what I would do if I were you? Go to YouTube and search for "Sytrus tutorial" like so:

Then, pick the videos that got the most views, and follow along. You'll seriously be surprised at how much progress you will make in sound design in a short period of time. It CAN get complicated, but the basics are pretty easy to grasp!

I've never used Sytrus, I'm a big fan of Sylenth1, and for the longest time I was playing with only presets and tweaking knobs randomly. Eventually I followed some Sylenth1 sound design tutorials, and it rocked my world. I was able to make almost any sound from scratch.

That bass sound is almost impossible to find perfectly recreated except in Harmor. The preset Analog Bass 2 sound exactly the same, and it probably came from there originally. I made a thread about the same sound a while ago. I couldn't find almost anyone who reproduced it well.

You should look into sound design overall as it's very useful, especially if you're only using FL stock synths, since there aren't many great presets for those. Search for ''Sytrus presets'' or ''Harmor presets''.

bengt_alexsander; You're actually pretty wrong about that. Sytrus is a synth with enormous capabilities, and Harmor is basically unmatched by any synth on the market today for additive synthesis. FL (or Sytrus, not sure which you were referring to) is not ''a toy''. It does not take ''so much more work than just using Ableton Live, or Reason, or any other proper DAW.'' to make something that sounds good. I'd suggest you seriously research what you're saying before bashing different gear etc. Take a long look at the Power Users page on Image Line's site, before saying that FL isn't a ''proper DAW. Look up SeamlessR's youtube channel to see exactly what you can do with Sytrus, Harmor, and a lot of other IL products (using FL). Please don't make uninformed assumptions.

eh, most of you guys are newbies, when I started there weren't even software synths yet.... at all... it was all cakewalk and hardware

then there was rebirth and fruityloops, the 1st made it so you didn't need to own an 808 and 303 and the 2nd replaced your expensive sampler AND could act as a step sequencer for your actual synths (and could also make it so you don't need an 808 etc if you could get quality samples), guess which one I bought? I remember when ableton came out, I think it was maybe '02 NAMM in Anaheim.... at that time ableton was the software that looked like a toy, just an update of the popular Acid looping software.... times change

anyway, there's only one Iggy I know and that's Pop.... if an Iggy starts singing without the Stooges then you can just turn that shit off!

I talked to Stereo16 about this same pesky saw sound a while ago and concluded its nothing special.... really nothing special.... most of what's jumping out at you guys is how its processed in the mix, otherwise its a software preset (probably the analog bass preset in FL's Harmor) or a sample of a shitty groovebox sound.... nothing special

I think I tried to make this sound with a subtractive synth and some effects after talking to Stereo16 and then I got carried away and made a cooler bass stab instead, then I forgot all about it 'til I saw this

anyway guys, make your own sounds, that's this chick's sound, not yours (and really I think it started as that analog bass preset in Harmor so its not even hers)... you don't "need" this sound, you need to think for yourselves for fuck's sake

You see, back then I also didn't agree with you (fully). The basic shape and all is pretty simple (fast attack and decay on the filter with some resonance), but there's a certain quality about it that stands out. The same with thew preset so you can't really say it's the processing. It has a certain ''thickness'' or you could just say it sounds Phat. I should really revisit that preset now that I know more about how Harmor works. It seemed to use some sort of weird waveform for a source, have to check it out.

yeah, its like a fucked up saw, not precisely a saw.... or its sampled from hardware in such a way that there's a tone of aliasing screwing up the waveform and bringing out artificial harmonics.... could be lots of things making it sound 'phat' and complex....

I'll bet the guy who created the track for this girl doesn't even know how he got that sound precisely. I'm sure he could recreate it if he needed to now, but he probably stumbled on whatever magic quality you guys are hearing.... personally that bass stab didn't do a lot for me sonically. That video of the guy who did it in massive sounds right to me. I'll bet my ensoniq could do it, the 3 weird ass wavetable DCOs can get pretty wild if you do like 2 saws and then something more digital.... but that synth is buried in a closet right now because I am not feeling very electronic lately.
