The NI Massive Deep House Pluck is a great sound on it’s own, but it can also be a great base for some of your own custom designs. This Pluck is rich in character and can make any track shine even though the sound itself only utilizes 2 Oscillators! Jonny has done a great job developing this Deep House Pluck, which has become a truly terrific NI Massive Pluck!

The Square Saw II and the Pulse Saw PWM are the fundamental components of the NI Massive Pluck. Jonny crafts the sound using a Scream Filter added to Filter 1 and a Bit Crusher added to Insert 1. He then modulates the Filter by using a custom envelope shape placed in Envelope 1, and controls it a bit more by mapping it to a macro slot. Finishing it off, Jonny adds a Synced Delay and Reverb before adding a touch of noise to the mix.
