Recording Notes
- The Roland SH-101 was likely used to create the bassline. The filter envelope would have been adjusted to create the resonant sweep.
- A mixing console was used for EQ and compression.
Recreation Tips
- Start with a square wave on a Roland SH-101 or similar analog synth.
- Use the filter envelope to create a subtle resonant sweep synced to the song's tempo.
- Add a touch of compression to even out the dynamics and make it punchy.
- Experiment with chorus or flanger effects for subtle width.
