The Super Triangle  

I know a lot of people when they think of producing trance the first  thing that comes to there mind is firing up a supersaw waveform in there synth or programming a supersaw to play the melody of your lead synth. Yes its very common to think of only the saw and square when thinking of trance and techno. One waveform a lot of people are overlooking is the triangle wave form.

The Triangle

So do yourself a favor and go into your daw or your synth and change the waveform on some of your tracks to triangle and see what it sounds like. Youd be surprised as how it sounds just as good as a saw. While your at it try to use a sine waveform too. Sines sound great for dark or somber trance.

Examples

I went ahead and made some examples for you to hear what im talking about below. 








In the next few days I will give you different examples ,from some of my other tracks to show you what you can achieve by using a triangle waveform instead of using a saw for everything.
 If you been producing for a while you will know this already but,remember this is for newbies. So listen to my examples below and share your examples too in the comments section.  

     The first example is just a short riff say maybe 25 bars or so of a 8 bar loop I looped a few times so you could hear the character  and feel of the triangle.
So think outside the box and use some other waveforms beside the saw for trance and youll be surprised as to what you can actually achieve.

I will be looking for your video and audio responses.

As producers we know how somethings just take too much time. We know there has to be an easy way. Well there is an easy way and it is using groups.This video below is showing you how to use groups to speed up your productions. As a producer im sure you know how long it takes to make each sound and then load all the audio and midi effects and everything else you need for each track and sound can be daunting. It can sometimes take forever to get the sound you want. Instead of doing that and going through that each and every time. The solution is just do it once and save it as a group. Then load that group when needed. If you are not using groups you would be doing yourself a  big favor to watch this video now and to use groups. So, watch this video now and leave your comments below of you using groups and what sequencer you are using.
