Hi all,

I was wondering what you thought about what synth is being used here for this acid type bassline, I've come quite close with synapse the legend but I'm now thinking this is actually a hardware sound like a moog sub 37 or something. Can anyone tell?

Small general tip: Use a phaser to get that sound. Turn off the LFO of the phaser, and try different frequencies, until you get a similar tone.

Exactly, if you are by any chance using Logic, this is the nice ballpark chain I shared in one thread:

but almost any phaser will get you there, free Melda one is good.

Think almost any synth will get you there, it's not about the source really, it's the chain of effects, hi passed EQ, probably followed by compressor (there's freebie called endorphin from digitalfishphones that could do wonders in pushing this thing in your face), than you need distortion before the phaser, multi band distortion would do you good (something like Quadrafuzz, Izotope Trash, FF Saturn and etc) :tu:

Yeah, quite love Spire too, if you need capable software synth, look no further, there's Viper from Adam Szabo, nice one also, can't get wrong with them for majority of tasks, it will complement any monophonic synth, such as Legend, nicely. :tu:
