How To Create Growls With Sytrus in FL Studio


Today I teach you guys how to create growls with Sytrus, a subtractive synthesizer that comes standard with FL Studio. Many producers tend to overlook the power that this synthesizer has because: 1. They think it is inferior to more popular synths like Massive, or 2. They don’t understand how it works.

I bring you through the steps to understand how Sytrus works and how to create growls comparable to Massive and other synthesizers. While the audio isn’t the best, it still covers all the basics and will create a great sound even though my audio isn’t great.

The link to the YouTube video has been posted below. Hope you learn a lot from it!

Today, I would like to talk about one of my favorite synthesizers that I use when creating a project in FL Studio: Massive.

http://www.aphotoofhongkongaday.com/massive_synth/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Tut3.2.pngMassive is a wavetable synthesizer that has the ability to create huge growls and wobbles that we hear very often in dubstep and drum ‘n bass. While it is also capable of creating plucks and beautiful strings, it is the most well-known and used synth by professional producers.

I am very familiar with Massive and how the wavetable synth works, but some of you are unfamiliar with it. ADSR sounds has about 150 tutorials for Massive, and a huge collection of Massive presets. They also have a newsletter that they send out every week and have tutorials for various synths on YouTube.

Another useful tutorial I have found is on Udemy with the course “Massive Tutorial: Master NI’s ‘Massive’ in One Week.” The course is taught by Dylan Bowes, who is a great teacher and producer of EDM and is currently writing and producing pop songs for Young and Vicious Management. He takes you through all the different aspects and parts of the synth that most beginners have a hard time figuring out. Whether you’re a beginner or a professional, this tutorial is very helpful for all EDM producers.

I hope this will help you out in your musical endeavors. Now go out there and start making some awesome sounds!

Cheers!
