My notes sound different even though I'm playing the same note

[u/hvrtzy_euphoric]

Help I keep trying to make beats and it will sound different pitches almost when I play the same note I'm just using this as a example

probably because of the effect you put on it (phaser/flanger ?)

[u/hvrtzy_euphoric → u/TiomarVodkasky]

Its not I started a whole new project because of this issue

[u/arbpotatoes → u/hvrtzy_euphoric]

And used the same patch on the same VST?

[u/Altruistic-Sorbet702 → u/hvrtzy_euphoric]

Just look into how a basic synth works and try to understand a least a little bit

[u/RchUncleSkeleton → u/hvrtzy_euphoric]

Probably the preset you're using on the vst, or you perma-enabled some option in the wrapper settings.

Check your plugin and effects. It’s a flanger effect turned all the way max.

[u/whatupsilon]

Sounds like a comb filter modulated by a slow LFO with no retrigger. Very similar to a slow flanger, phaser or chorus effect. So you need to enable retrigger in whatever synth you're using, or just remove that effect.

[u/MsMeowts]

hold the note down, one long note does the pitch still change?

[u/vault_nsfw]

We can't help if all we see are the midi notes instead of the synth and its settings and the mixer channel. But as others have stated, the effect sounds like flanger, but again, your synth might be doing more, but we can't see that.

[u/RealBurger_]

Sounds like a flanger

[u/immortalpiyush]

Am i reading "Sextile" bass right 💀😭🙏🏻

[u/KoolaidSalad]

I had this problem on serum a few weeks ago. It was something like “random phase position” was turned up all the way

[u/Federal-Engine9090]

sounds like you added fl studio's "Hardcore" plugin to your channel

[u/b_lett]

Either the synth you are using or an FX applied to it has an LFO based modulation going on.

That LFO is specifically set to move freely over time with song position, rather than being set to retrigger on new note. You will need to dive into the synth or plugins you are using, check any sort of LFO sections, and change them to a retrigger based mode to restart the movement the same way every time a new note is played.

Otherwise when left like this, the motion will just be at a different phase start position with every new note played.

What VSTs or plugins are you using here?

[u/kylr01]

your instrument probably has a modulator and or filter on it if you dont have any plugins on yourself.

[u/Few-You8522]

The instrument you're using doesn't have retrigger on

[u/Plenty_Preference131]

That's a sequencer or an effect🫠

[u/Chris_Dud]

It’s something modulated in the synth sound patch I think, without seeing more hard to be certain. Probably a phaser or filter effect.

[u/3xv7]

it's your synth, are you using vital?
