Tone Profile
A quirky and somewhat thin-sounding synth bass with a square wave character. It's bright and cutting, designed to stand out in the mix without overwhelming the other frequencies.
Production Credits
Producer: Mark Foster
Engineer: Mark Foster
Signal Chain
Instrument: Moog Voyager
Recording Notes
- The sound was created using a Moog Voyager synthesizer.
- The patch likely involved a square wave oscillator with some filter modulation to create movement and interest.
- The sound was recorded directly into the DAW without external amplification.
Recreation Tips
- Start with a square wave on a synthesizer.
- Use the filter to shape the tone, emphasizing the higher frequencies.
- Apply a touch of envelope modulation to the filter cutoff for added dynamics.
- Consider using a slight chorus or ensemble effect to widen the sound.
- EQ to carve out space for the bass, ensuring it doesn't clash with the kick drum.
