Use filter envelope to shape plucky articulation
Problem: sound lacks dynamic filtering
Applying a filter envelope modulates the cutoff frequency over time, creating dynamic filtering that enhances plucky articulation. This technique is essential for shaping the attack and release of a sound, making it more…
Automate filters for evolving textures
Problem: sound lacks movement
Filter automation introduces movement and evolution to a sound, preventing it from sounding static. This is a key technique in Boris Brejcha's style for maintaining listener engagement through subtle, continuous changes…
Detune saw waves and apply envelope-modulated filters
Problem: lifeless bass tones
Detuning a saw wave creates a thicker, more resonant bass tone. Pairing this with an envelope-modulated filter (e.g., opening on attack) adds punch and dynamic shaping. The notch filter used here creates a hollow,…
