Tone Profile

This bass synth tone is characterized by its deep, resonant sub-bass frequencies and a slightly detuned, almost chorus-like, quality that adds width and movement. It's a foundational element, providing a simple yet effective rhythmic and harmonic anchor.

Recording Notes

• The bassline is likely a combination of the Roland TB-303 for the core sequence and a Jupiter-8 to give a fuller, rounder tone.
• Experiment with detuning the oscillators on the Jupiter-8 to replicate the chorus-like effect.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a sawtooth wave on the Jupiter-8 and filter it down to emphasize the sub frequencies.
• Use a touch of chorus or ensemble effect to widen the sound.
• Layer a clean TB-303 sequence underneath for added definition.
