This is how the whole thing started. I find experimenting with things in the studio to change the way I write music.
For this instance I wanted to check stability of the Moog Minitaur with CV/Gate control and no MIDI.
So I sent clock to my x0xb0x, dialed a sequence on its analog sequencer and sequenced the Moog Minitaur with it.

Unfortunately you cannot hear the bass from the crappy iphone mic, but the Moog Minitaur spits out some serious bottom end.
The patch involved a square VCO at the fundamental and a saw VCO an 8ve higher. Closed VCF, mild modulation index from the ADSR. The pattern and slides are typical of the 303 sequencer, in this case, the x0xb0x.
Cheers!

It takes time and lots and lots of practise, trial and error and even more practise. Check the first Disco Hooligans albums on Ektoplazm, I did them... lots of crap mixes in there

Yup, love the Big Muff pi Bass and ProCo RAT2 pedals.
They are noisy little things, but their sound is proper analog distortion that puts a smile on my face

Love it!
1.22 which synth you make that sound with?.
I like the goa influences around 2.43 . Remind me slightly of your that deedrah remix you made last year.
3,30 really twisted!. Nicely made!. Its a heavy modulated sample?.
Great tune m8!.

The bottom clip is the Manmademan remix so I have no clue as to what is the synth they used.
On the top clip where is the original tune I made,
1:22 is the Moog Slim Phatty through the Moog MF-103.
2:43 is the Moog Slim Phatty again, layered with a Virus C spectral waveform FM patch. I used the Virus Polar TI I had at the time when I did that Deedrah remix of Goa Sunrise. Again spectral waveform FM patches, its where the Virus shines, imo.
3:30 are lead layers from the Moog Minitaur.
Oh and cheers.

Wow man great synth work! Awesome!
One question: what parameters are you automating / modulating / enveloping at that lead coming in at 1:49 until 2:14? I understand you have a long automation that brings it in (could be increasing the amp decay and sustain envelope), and than out (could be using LP filtering), but I'm really interested in the effects prominent at 2:03 making it go down > clever pitch bending on the FM modulator osc? ring modulation?
Thanks for any response!

That's the Moog Slim Phatty. A basic VCO sync patch, where I used two sawtooth VCOs, an 8ve apart and I have a slow Ramp Down LFO modulating the frequency of the slave VCO, so it does the pitch down effect, but the pitch does not actually change.
Then they go into the Phatty VCF with moderate resonance and 1 pole filter so that I get a mid kinda scream as the filter sweeps, but also have enough top end present, where I have automated the cut off frequency to open slowly and close again.
There is not Ring modulation on that patch, or FM. If I may say, sync pathces are the Slim Phatty's strong point, my Doepfer modular did not sound this good.
Then I recorded the patch twice for true stereo and pan far and wide, especially if I have something else that has similar frequency range, but leave that in the center to achieve better stereo separation of similar synth patches.
This is the thing that makes me buy new analog synths, they sound brilliant, yet they have full MIDI implementation. I could never do this kind of thing on the SH-101 (let alone sync patches, there was not VCO sync on the SH-101) as there was not MIDI implementation that allowed for syncable LFOs to MIDI and automation of parameter to record patches twice and turn a mono synth, into a stereo synth (with twice the VCO count as well).
I miss the SH-101 sound, the Moog Phatty sounds totally different, but I never looked back after replacing the Roland SH-101 with the Moog Slim Phatty. I much prefer stereo patches of the Phatty to mono patches of the SH-101.
Thanks for kind words
