Riser fx

Can someone help me out im tryna make some transition riser and swoosh effects with a sonar instrument... thanks 

The easiest way to do this is using a synthesizer that has white noise as a waveform option. Set the resonance to medium/high. Start your cutoff low, and gradually raise it to create the "rising" effect. Play with the resonance to get different sounding tones.

in the encanti edm expansion for rapture, take a look at any of the uplifter patches under the synthesis & fx tree. you can see several examples there. if you want to change how fast/slowly the envelopes change over time in rapture, you can turn sync on in the eg modulators then midi control the sync time of the eg by shift+right clicking the sync field and chosing a cc number then adding control changes in the midi clip to trigger diff sync rates.  you can also do that with the step generator. one of my fave tricks is adding a cc mapping to the steps field in the step generator and then changing that over time so that there is variation in voices.  here's a simple example with noise and two additional voices for depth https://skydrive.live.com...d=5DBE71A770FCC390!296  it's called simply riser001.  z3ta+ and +2 are the same concept. there is a patch for them also in the skydrive folder called whoosh riser.   


these are both 8-bar risers.  in rapture, the thing you need to remember about any of the sync values is that if you have sync set to 1 that doesn't mean 1 bar (like in massive for example), it means one beat.  32 is 8 bars in 4/4 time.  1/8 is 32nd note, 1/4 is 16th note and 1/2 is 1/8th note.
