Recording Notes

• The bassline was created using a Moog modular synthesizer, sequenced to create a repetitive and driving rhythm.
• Giorgio Moroder meticulously crafted the sound, experimenting with the Moog's oscillators and filters to achieve the desired tone.
• The SSL console was used for EQ and compression.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a sawtooth wave on your synthesizer and detune it slightly.
• Use an envelope filter to add a subtle 'wah' effect to the sound.
• Apply a touch of chorus to widen the sound.
• Use compression to even out the dynamics and make the bassline pump.
• Automate filter cutoff and resonance to create movement and interest.
