I would love for some elaboration on this comment about the bass if you get a sec Joey.

use a sine wave for intonated notes
use a cross over between the sine wave and the bass
the decline

i also must note, the big, wobbly dubstep bass that pops in on at least one of the songs is fucking IMMENSE. it sounds really fucking evil, dirty, and almost disturbing! this is the first time i've heard dubstep thrown into metal that i actually thought FIT. it sounds fucking NASTYYYYYYY.
me likey.
me likey.
was that only used in the outro track, or other places in the album?
also, is it just me, or do the acacia strain and emmure have a competition on to see who can get the lowest tuning on an album?!
thanks,

I'm mixing a band that tunes to F at the moment, this comment literally just saved my life with the bass on this mix.
What I'm doing and I don't know if this is the correct technique is rolling off the first harmonic of the bass, with a HPF to about 40Hz, just because anything below that starts clashing hard with the sine wave. I'm using a soft synth to generate the sines, and its only for anything below low D (second string on the bass basically). I found I had to auto tune the bass though, something I really usually avoid doing as it sucks ass. This technique made tuning problems really apparent.
emmure's world of intulo is is 2 semitones lower than wormwood, so i think it's up to them to raise the bar!
perhaps i mean lower? aha
thanks,
Wtf? it's in E? I didn't know that, I figured the whole record was in drop A but then again I haven't heard it all!

there are 3 or 4 tunings on the album
one of which is drop e (octave lower than e standard, but dropped style tuning)
its on track 15

the idea is to eliminate the note entirely from the original bass track, and replace it with the clean sine. you treat the original bass track like any other bass track, add grit or distortion or whatever you wanna do, even apply normal eq's like you would. then at the end of the chain, high pass the shit out of it and then low pass at the same frequency on the sine wave
Interesting...so it's like the typical sub bass/grit bass blend except the HP is set much higher and the sine wave replaces the sub bass? How to you get the sine wave to match the different note frequencies? Is it programmed using midi?

yeah you just program all the notes they played. the only bitch is matching slides and bends. but spend some time and it can be done.
oh my fuck.
you certainly make a lot of work for yourself man.. (though i guess the ends justify the means) i'm curious if you use a VST synth or if you make the notes by hand and copy paste..?
knowing you, probably the latter.. aha.
thanks,
