Grievous Angel
Beast of Burden
Logan's right, the bass presets in Fruity are poor. But for beats it's the biz! I suspect people do the beats in Fruity, chuck the files into Logic / Cubase, and do the bass there. Don't forget, Dizzee used "the first preset on an SE1 and said, That's it, that's all we need!" But the SE1 is a two thousand pound Moog clone and is one serious bit of kit. Grime tracks aren't all Playstation grooves.
Having said that I intend to test Logan's contention that the Fruity sampler is shit by loading it up with some more bass samples and seeing if the envelopes will do that whump-whaaa sound... (I should be using the Virus but that means switching on something other than the computers )
Right now Fruity is giving me sticky garage beats crossed with techno blips, might actually make some more tunes soon if I spend much more time in hotels...
