Not sure if this is the most appropriate place to post this message on this site, but it was the best I could find.

I have a question about bass lines.

I have been writing experimental electronic music for about 7 years and am mystified still by some of the bass I hear from techno and rap music. I was wondering if anyone could help clear up what is going on.

What I am talking about is easist to describe in rap music.. the bass line that comes in and goes:
Booooooooooooooom ...... ..... Boooooooooom Boooooooom

Totally fills your speakers, and sounds really warm and smoothe.

Where are they getting that sound... ? How is that being done?

I have:

RM1X
MPC2000XL
ASR-10
ELECTRIBE-R

I have tried everything I can think of myself to replicate this bass line sound.. but am unable to do so... every thing pales in comparison.

Am I making any sense? Any one able to offer any info, advice, or opinions?

"xoxos uploaded it to DT, but the link works only from his homepage"

eh?... step back to the main SYNTH FORUM..... select the dropdown for VSTI APP and thumper is there and d/loads fine - also it can be accessed in SAMPLES (samples & files) section via the top icon where the same classification or a name search will bring it up.

I had an idea for a script once. It's basically Jaws except when the guys in the boat are going after Jaws, they look around and there's an even bigger Jaws. The guys have to team up with Jaws to get Bigger Jaws.... I call it... Big Jaws!!!

well only blaster, ecs, orbiter & Utopia have an actual DT listing page - xoxos didnt create a page for any others.. but for the actual files (not review/listing pages) you should search SAMPLES (samples & files) section (click the 'samples' icon) - at the moment you are searching product listing pages.

I too enjoyed your website, meriphew. Really high quality stuff. MP3's streamed like a dream. That intro made me laugh. Should it? :}

i can't be bothered to make a page for all my crap, especially since no one but milan likes it *snif*

in case i haven't said it lots, the commercial v. of synthedit will allow for the gate>osc sync conneciton necessary to get the uniform attack.. paid tonight, so i'll prolly have that together fairly soon.
