Hi folks,

I've always been a sucker for the bass sound you here allot in (deep) house music. I've tried to recreate it a few times without much luck... Hopefully someone with more knowlegde on sound design could send me in the right direction. :help:

Here's an example :

Thanks !

It's indeed just simply a sawtooth through a LPF with an envelope. https://clyp.it/pgrxmbex

Some processing is needed tho, preferably in the analog domain. You can try recording it on tape for some warmth and character.

Definitely a Juno-106 or SH-101 type bass, definitely something that TAL-Uno LX or 62 (the freeware version) can nail. There’s even a patch like this in TAL Noisemaker. Any synths should do this, hardware or software.
Many paid and free VSTs as well as Kontakt libraries. As well as HW synths/drum machine and acoustic instruments.

Sounds a lot like a 303 with a low resonance setting and a saw wave. If you have a 303 emulation I would suggest trying that.
