Ever wonder how producers get that deep, growling bass that shakes the floor? It’s called a Reese Bass! Originally pioneered by techno legend Kevin Saunderson, this iconic sound has shaped genres like drum & bass and jungle. In this demo I cover the Skeler remix of 1nonly - Scars.

The Reese bass patch in this video is from a preset pack called "Vital Hardstyle Presets vol 2" which I got at OnPointSamples.com.

Gear & Setup:
-MIDI Controller: Misa Quadwave
-DAW: Ableton Live
-Synth: Vital
-Audio Interface: Miditech Audiolink III
