    Hi guys,
    this is my first post,
    I would like to know if you have the ability to replicate the following bassline.


    I know the characteristics, it's a syncopated bassline and it has a portamento/glide in it, but how would you do it?

    It's not really hard, typical (Mini) Moog sound with shorter decay on filter and glide always on

    use Repro , Diva or The legend and you can easily recreate it , but ofcourse depends of your playing skillz or programming skills too

    thanks guys for your contributions,
    I don't believe it's a matter of the synth used, but the processes applied.

    Who dares to make a 5 seconds line replicating it and share it here? The theory sounds easy, but I doubt that translating it is so quick.
    It has some pumpiness/precission characteristics attached to it that I'm not sure that comes only from compression.
