K---K---K
-bBb--B--

b = lower note

there is a tiny bit of glide on it, not much.

the bassline is in G so basically to get that sound you need to go up to g3 and then down to f2 with a some portamento or glide(same thing)

Just make a regular off beat bassline and add the G3 and F2 between and your done.

anyway I did this in 2 minutes and it sounded the same as your clip.

Thanks heaps for your help guys, I tried what you suggested echosystem and it sounded close, but not the same and I'm pretty sure it's the notes/pattern not just the sounds im using..

So is this what you're saying:


K - - - K - - - K - - - K - - -
- G3 G2 F2 - - G2 - - - G2 - - - G2 -

(sorry, the forum software unaligns the ascii)
??

This sounds very close I think....?
The first bar of the original does seem to have 3 different notes which descend.

K - - - K - - - K - - - K - - -
- F2 G2 F2 - - G2 - - - G2 - - - G2 -
..sounds better, in which case echosystm was right on the money the first time, thanks for your help dude!

I've alays been confused when it comes to glide/portamento setting on synths, anyone care to explain what they do how to use them?

Depends what synth it is man. Some synths just have the single "glide" knob that you turn up or down, the higher it is the longer the glide will be. Others have the whole up/down with like 4 different modes and shit haha, just play around until it sounds good.
