How can I get this bass sound, is this an arp bassline or rolling bass? I am having difficulty to make my bass to sound like from this song. Any suggestions would be helpful, like what VST would be good and how to get the sound itself.

Starts filtered at around 0:25, you can hear it better at around 1:00 or so. And you can hear it solo at 1:58.

Thanks!

This is simplest plucked bass, just processed so it's not that apparent (saturation?). And yes, it plays octave arpeggio. Any synth can do that and in fact all of them did over last 16 years :P

Thanks for reply!

Yeah, that's what I thought so. A saw arp bassline that goes 1 octave. Still having difficulties to get it to sound like the one from the track though... :(

Listening through laptop speakers in a noisy environment... but I could still swear it's a pulse, not a saw. Might wanna turn the attack a bit down as well.
