Techno music is widely known for its driving beats and hypnotic sounds, with the bassline being a crucial element of the genre. In this article, we'll take you through the process of creating a techno-inspired pad bass with a stutter effect using Diva and A1 Trigger plugins.

To start, we set up Diva as a plugin in our DAW and programmed a long pad bass with interval jumps. Using Diva's oscillator, filter, and modifications, we adjusted the settings to achieve the desired sound, adding osc 1 and detuned osc 2 to enhance the complexity of the sound.

Next, we created a stutter effect using A1 Trigger, selecting the trance gate preset and modifying the ADSR release and steps to create different rhythmic patterns. We also utilized the LFO to add movement to the sound, modulating various parameters such as filter cutoff, FM, and resonance.

By following these steps, you can create your unique techno-inspired pad bass with a stutter effect that adds depth and drive to your tracks. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced producer, this technique is a great way to bring more character and complexity to your music.

To follow up on our last video analog techno bass in Massive X we are going to be building a kick drum to support that bass. We will be looking at using self-oscillation using the filter rather than using a traditional oscillator. By following this video you will be able to create all manner kick to beef up your techno productions.

In today's sound design journey we are going to look at creating a analog techno bass in Massive X. The sound has been influenced by the classic synths like the Moog Minimoog, Roland sh101 and the Jupiter 8

This bass sound is perfect for anyone wants to learn Melodic Techno, Deep Tech, Rolling Techno and darker tech-house.

What you will learn in this techno music production tutorial is:

• Sound Design

• Massive X

• Audio Processing

• Routing

Next up in our synth series, we are going to look at creating some R2D2 style bleeps and bloops and turning them into some techno percussion loops.

In this new vlog series we are going to adventure in to the world of sound design. Each month or so we will look to build a new sound using an multitude of soft synths.

To kick off of the adventure we are using one of the Mind Flux nerds favourite synth Serum from Xfer. We will use Serum to build an evolving dub techno chord which will help add movement and interest through out your productions.
