Propellerhead Artist Interview: Jakwob

In January 2011 James Jacob, better known to his fans as Jakwob, came to the United States for his first major North American tour. Our cameras met up with him in San Francisco, California to see him live in front of five thousand eager Dubstep fans.

In clubs throughout London, Dubstep has forged a partnership between the influences of Reggae and Drum n' Bass while borrowing from disparate styles such as House or Heavy Metal. The groove is laid back but the sounds are anything but. And in this still young genre, Jakwob is a master of the Dubstep wobble bass.

His production style is somewhat zen. James is open to experimentation, welcoming of accidents, and humble to the idea that there is no right way to make these notoriously undefinable and awkward bass sounds. A Reason user since version 2.0 and a Record/Reason user for 100% of his production, Jakwob sat down with us to discuss his music making and to show us a couple tricks he's employed in his tracks.

How to Make a Dubstep Whomp Bass in Reason

Dubspot instructor and Dubstep producer Chris Petti shows you how to make
the infamous 'dubstep whomp bass' in Propellerhead Reason & Record. The
sound which has been described by many as a processed voice or croaking
sound, can be created using synthesizers and effects processors. Starting with
a basic analog saw wave, which you can get by creating a Thor synthesizer
with blank patches in the rack window, set the Keyboard Modes to mono and
polyphony and release polyphony to 1. Go into the Show Programmer and set
the Analog Osc octave knob to 3. Create a second Noise Osc and route it to
Filter 1. With these two oscillators combine, you hear mixture of white noise
and saw wave. Set the Low Pass Ladder Filter mode to 24 type 1, the frequency
to 184 Hz, and the resonance to 93, and also zero-out the envelop amount
(set to 0.) After these initial steps, create two Scream 4 Distortion units which
should autoroute to Thor, follow Chris' instruction on setting the Damage
Control and Damage Type to get to fatten and warm up the sound, as well as
shave off some harsh frequencies from the top.

How dirty can a dubstep wobble bass get?

I've been looking for a dirty dirty dubstep wobble bass to jam with in Reason for a while. Something illicit, smacking of grit and grime that's thickness covers the frequency bands. Now I dig a cleaner patch called "Bass Dub Steppah" included with TrackTeam Audio's Thunderbox demo. And, of course, I've made a few dubstep patches myself, aided by YouTube. Heck, even the Reason Factory Soundbank has a pretty cool patch called "DnB Growler Bass", but it doesn't have the wobble control that I'm looking for... so today I decided to combine all the one's I like together into a monster we'll call the...
