For those of you who are into music production I am looking for a good forum to join that focuses mostly on the creation of psytrance, ambient psy, darkpsy. I have been fiddling with abelton live for a while and I have NI Komplete. My midi board will be here soon so it is time to start seriously getting into this stuff. I try to experiment by myself but it is hard to find the tricks of the trade.

I am really interested in the types of scales used in these genres and I would also like some info on how to get started making strange noises. I have made a few, but are nothing compared to what I hear on albums. Thanks a bunch for the help. Much love!!!!

Peace
 
NI Komplete is the dogs ballocks for making your own sounds! Unfortunately I don't listen to a lot of psytrace stuff but if you ever want a few recommendation on plug ins and synths give me a shout. Good luck with your stuff.
 
Grab the following plugins:

WNM (weird noise machine.) Perfect for creating uncontrollable oscilations.
Ultradelayz - Easilly the best delay plugin out there.
Tone2 BiFilter - Easilly the best sounding filter out there, although you might also want to get Antares FilterVST because got lots of rhythm gates/arps and LFOs.
Phoscyon - for squeltchy basslines.

Also, here's some midi basslines in a rar (play them on a 303 like phoscyon or moun tau2 or audiorealism's bassline.)

btw scales used in psytrance: lydian, pentatonic, arabic, dorian. I doubt anyone actually sticks to a scale though, i think most of what you hear is wild improv.
