Hi all,

anyone know how to achieve the bass sound squarepusher so loves to use...

It sounds to me like its a sqaure wave as its quite hollow, but with some res for a bit of squelch and filter env for a rounded sound...but no amount of tweaking has got me near the sound- the sound appears on his 'untitled' single and i would love to know how to achieve it- it may well be an FM sound but am not sure.....quality synth tone thou- any ideas?

let us know if you need an audio snippet

oh, sounds like a pretty standard square wave bass (for the lowend). layered with that seems to be a saw (or even perhaps a square wave with some pulse width on it... not PW modulation, just a fixed duty cycle other than 50/50 for some grit. I like to use extreme settings for square waves) apply all the aforementioned resonant filtering and enveloping to the higher spectrum of the saw/pulse wave and leave the solid square bass untouched to anchor the sound. And of course a good overdrive will truly make it spit. I'm sure SP is using quality analog gear for this purpose... dirty dirty tubes!
