I need help to make the Makj & Henry Fong - Encore drop synth or the Showtek - Cannonball synth. They are almost the same. Does anyone know how to make that sound ? Im struggling to get the sound :C

Makj & Henry Fong - Encore https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8Ez_zNoYRE

Showtek & Justin Prime - Cannonball https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-34cBHy0B6M

Also, does anyone know how to make a big room kick like W&W and Showtek ?

It sounds like detuned saws to me and it's something easy to make with something like Sylenth1, this is my try :

(of course any other VST like Sylenth1 - ANA for example - will do the trick)

If you want the midi file I uploaded it (but I think you won't have to use it since you probably want to make your own songs, also this is really easy to remake this one lol)

For the big room kick I won't answer because seriously you have like 1000 tutorials on Youtube and websites to make one… Search for some informations before you post here ! You might also find the exact lead preset Showtek are using in their songs if you search for it, but I think it's better to be able to remake it than use a simple Nexus preset like every lazy edm producers nowadays… :)

Can you help me find what synth or preset Showtek uses ? In my opinion it doesn't sound as close. I really want the encore synth, im in love with it <3 -Never gonna give up :D

Just by searching on YouTube I found a preset pack which has almost 100% the same lead, and a great tutorial to make one by yourself !

Can you link me the preset pack please ? :)

I may understand that you're too lazy to learn anything about sound design if you just started producing, I think everybody went through this, but if you're too lazy to search for something on YouTube you're definitely not going to be the next Showtek...

Of course i have searched. I've basically searched the whole internet. And i can't find any showtek synths that sound really close. I've tried to make them but they come out in the Bad/Booyah synths. I want the cannonball synths. I've been producing in about 1 year with fl studio 11 (noobiest program ever). Im gonna start producing with ableton live instead.

FL Studio is not a noobie program, actually a lot of people use it... Madeon makes some sick tracks and this is what it look likes when he uses it :

It will take a lot of time for you to understand Live since they don't work the same way, and it wouldn't be really good since everything you can make with Live you can basically make it with FL Studio, Logic Pro, whatever...
Afrojack, Avicii, Arty, Madeon, Martin Garrix, Porter Robinson... They all use FL Studio, I think what you need is to learn sound design... And buy a nice VST. I wouldn't recommend Nexus because you'll learn nothing with it, but Sylenth1 is definitely something great to start, it's not that much expensive, and for exemple Martin Garrix made 90% of his song "Animals" with it, and FL Studio :

Since you seem to be into Big Room House you'll probably understand now that FL is a powerful program. If there's one thing you should never forget ; never give up and try to learn ;)

Makj has an in the studio session showing how he made the encore track, go check it out.

Either way, you need Pro Tools to become "Pro". Don't you recognize the Pro in the name of the software huh? Good luck :tu:

I've watched the studio session with Makj, but he never showed the 2nd layered synth. And i couldn't see what the nexus synth was. And i dont think i have that preset anyways. I often crack my stuff, and i can't seem to find a nexus 2.5.2 update. Is there anyone that could help me with that without paying ? :D

circuit modeling and 0-dfb filters are cool

In relation to the topic that is genuinely just an extremely generic supersaw.it´s the reverb you want to be focusing on as that is what gives it that slightly different timbre (early reflections)
