How do I make this sound?

Does anyone know how to make the pitch rise in Atom?

It starts in the background at 1:04 and continues until the drop at 1:22.

I’ve also heard it in several other songs (which I conveniently can’t remember now), so I know there’s gotta be some method I just don’t know about :unamused:

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks,
Alex

Its basically just 2 synth pitch bends with some increasing reverb on it. Pretty easy to do as most synths have a pitch bend function on them.

what i want to know is why are you using a picture of my ass on your video?

Sorry if I sound like an idiot, but which 2 synths? I know they must not be too hard to make as many producers use them, but I honestly have no idea how to get them (once again sorry if I sound like an idiot). :confused:

Sorry :slight_smile:

which to synths?
aj. there are 10s or thousands of synth tools available
pick one and try it.

If you are looking into the attempt of music production, it is NOT just add water

This.
I have no idea which 2 synths he’s using, but it sounds like 2 of them layered with a rising pitch bend. Mess around with some sounds and see what you come up with.

Yeah that was badly worded it wasn’t the most intellectual sounding question I’ve ever asked lol.

Will do!

Thanks for the quick responses guys!

sounds like a super saw (saw wave, with 4 or more voices and all slightly detuned from 0.03 to 0.13 in pitch - in case you don’t know how to make one)

make the voices spread on the stereo field, automate the pitch up by an octave or two during the buildup and also add reverb with good presence in the midrange frequencies and long decay, automate that reverb so it is wetter during buildup as well - you can also add a phaser for more epicness :wink:

hope that helps :slight_smile:

aeor, I literally just saw this months later but thanks for the tip! I’ll try and make that and see what happens.
