SUBSTANCE Explained

Output has done it again! This time they’ve created the ultimate bass synth machine for your DAW, and Eli Krantzberg buckles up his miners helmet and take you deep into this low frequency beast.

Videos
Presets & Main Page (03:47) - Learn to work with the Preset Page and how to use the Main Page controls to alter the sound sources and volume of each of the three layers that make up a sound.
The Edit Page (05:02) - Explore ways to manipulate each layer’s amp envelope, panning, tuning, sample start, mono/legato modes, and glide time.
The EQ Page (02:48) - See how to browse the different categories of sound sources, and work with the EQ page on a newly initialized single layer sound.
The Filter Page (06:00) - Explore the different per layer filter types, the filter envelopes, and the global filter section.
The FX Page (05:01) - Discover the array of effects available for the per layer sound sources, as well as globally for the entire instrument.
Modulation with LFOs (06:32) - See how cyclical waveform shapes are used to modulate the values of various parameters in the Substance interface.
Step Sequencer Modulation (03:23) - Discover how step sequencer patterns are used and customized as a modulation source to modulate per layer parameters and global sends.
Flux Modulation (04:04) - Hear how this is used as a secondary modulation source that modulates the modulation!
The Arpeggiator (07:06) - Learn how to use the arpeggiator to generate additional notes based on velocity patterns and note order, and explore it’s sonic possibilities when combined with modulation and FX.
Working with the Macro Sliders (08:47) - See how multiple parameters are assigned to the macro sliders, and how the range for each targeted parameter is modified.
