Deadmau5 secret revealed in fl studio

Hey guys whats going on. I’m a DJ/Producer and i was recently screwing around in fl studio and i was using a certain vst called wasp. This is a vst i use a lot for remixes and i came upon something shocking making a remix of Strobe + Aural Psynapse (both by deadmau5.)

I had got the actual lead sound from deadmau5’s strobe. I was very excited when I forund this out when i played the original track with the sound i discovered. PERFECT SYNC!! I almost crapped my self when it worked.

After that i wanted to get the cool sounding intro for Aural Psynapse, which was just released in November. I used wasp again and i wanted the exact sound. I had this idea,“what if i changed the shapes of the sounds.” That is exactly what I did and i found out something: deadmau5 maybe lazier than we think (no disrespect intended of course.) After I went from square-wave to saw-wave of osc 1+2, i got the lead intro sound of Aural Psynapse. I felt like i found out who killed tupac when i found this out.

Now i am sharing this secret with you.

Stop the presses!!!

Travesty: Dance Music Producer finds a production sound that is very popular and sells records and then uses same sound in multiple subsequent records!!!

oh shi-

You didnt share anything, all you said was how amazed you were when you found it. Besides Wasp isn’t a great syth imo.

Guess that’s how he chucks out loads of records… Interesting.

Srry i had to go somewhere yesterday and didnt have time to upload. Here’s the pic with the settings. This is aural psynapse. I posted an image so i can run you through how to get from the aural psynapse synth to the strobe synth. If i left out something let me know.

Ok if you have seen the settings for the last post i will show you how to get from aural psynapse settings to the strobe settings in wasp.

Part 1) Osc- Put both OSC 1 + 2 to 12 o’ clock. Set the waveforms from a square-wave to a saw-tooth wave. Keep the settings to OSC 3 as it is.

Part 2) AMP ADSR- Keep the ATT (Attack) at zero. Turn the DEC (Decay) where it is almost if not exactly between 12 and 1 o’clock. Turn the SUS (suspension) a pinch clockwise. Turn the REL (release) counter clockwise so it is between 11 and 12 o’clock.

Part 3) FILTER ADSR- Raise the attack to where it is barely above zero. Keep the rest of the settings as they are.

Part 4) DIST- Turn the tone down to zero. Make sure the DIST is off.

Part 5) Cutoff is for auto-mation clips.

I found out the other day how daft Punk got the Supertramp synth sound in Digital Love: they bought the Supertramp synth. Cool story bro

Surely you know you can press the PrtScrn button (command-shift-3 on Apple macs) for screen captures.

he already talked about it in one of his vidcasts. hes pretty open about production methods and software he uses. not much of secret.

I know but wheres the fun in that.

The thing that I like about Deadmau5 is that he does those podcasts and masterclasses. I respect the producers that are like Fu&k you… I’m good enough to tell you how I do this and you still won’t be able to do and you still won’t make music as good as me.

That’s because he did it first, and others doing it now are just copycats…
