Please, someone knows the real name of the synth preset or how obtain this vintage Bass sound?
It was very popular in the eighties ('80).

Hear the Bass sound on Bunny DeBarge's song here.

I think I have even that preset somewhere on my HD but I can't remember the synth name from which it comes... PPG, Prophet, DX7, D50, OBX, Moog?

All suggestion are welcome... Despite our audio guru friends I know that recognize a particular sound it's hard work!

Many thanks for your help.

 

I'd say FM synthesis. Probably DX7 or similar FM at the time.

 

Hi ElMoreno,

My Dad has many vintage synths, he says its sounds like a MiniMoog stacked with some FM synth like a DX7 or TX series synth like Baxter says as well.
There is a preset in the TX 81Z called Jacobass that it might be stacked with.
You might be able to get close with Native Instruments FM8 and the Gforce Minimonsta/Arturia Mini V if you want with plugins

I hope that helps

Kind regards

Daisy

 

Hello Daisy,
thanks to you, Baxter and your father for advice, I'll try with those plugins to see what I get.

Gently, if someone else recognizes clearly the sound... I'm here. *yes*


Greetings to all

 

Hi ELMoreno,

No Problem.

We hope you find the sounds you are after in the plugins.

Take care.

Regards

Daisy
