How to make trance (Progressive) with Sylenth1 | Live Electronic Music Tutorial 096

Check out the video for this episode: https://youtu.be/Y9NxTZSJWxw

For episode 96 our host Mikas is making a progressive trance song in Logic Pro X using the Sylenth 1 Synthesizer. We setup the BPM to 132 and the refresh rate to 48000KHZ.

We begin with a MIDI chord progression we previously selected, we also programmed some simple kick, snare and high hats percussion to get a basic groove. First we edit the chord progression so it is simpler and fits the genre better. First step, we set up the sidechain trigger and sidechain the pad so it responds to the kick drum hits. We then import a part of the MIDI and start creating a bassline, we first browse presets in Sylenth1 and once we have something we like we get to refine the pattern.
