How To Make A Snare Sound

After a long hiatus from making tutorials here’s finally a new video. It’s about how to make a snare sound using FL Studio Sytrus.

There are no text boxes this time, I’m just showing you how to.

The method is simple: I’m using Sytrus with two Operators. OP1 is for snap and body, OP2 for noise.

In the effect chain I’m using:

• Fruity Fast Dist for distortion
• PEQ2 for cutting lows and boosting some fundamental parts
• Soundgoodizer for additional excitement
• Another PEQ2 for cutting low frequencies even more after Soundgoodizer (plus some minor tweaking in the mid/high area)
• Transient Processor for sharpening the attack part of the snare.

I also show you how the snare works in a simple mix (i.e in a ‘context’).

Enjoy!
