Help with Gouryella style basslines?

Yo guys, I figured someone on here may be able to give me some insight into this as I'm bored at work... Does anyone know how to recreate the sound and a similar pattern to those used in some of the old Gouryella tunes ie. Gouryella - Gouryella and Binary Finary - 1999 (Gouryella Remix)? I know this may seem abit silly considering how old those tunes are but my love lies with that era of uplifting trance and I'd love to be able to do something similar sounding just for fun.
Cheers. |

| I was more looking for a basic synthesis tut regarding the sound itself, if anyone has any such advice to offer, but thanks for the replies guys :) |

If my memory isn't all to screwed up, didn't the binary finary remix have the same style on the bassline as gouryella - gouryella?
IF:
It's pretty easy. Main sound is a saw, sub sound is well... kinda hard to tell now since it was a while ago i listened to any of these tunes, but probably a square or sine. Since they we're using JP8000 i guess they probably used supersaw on OSC1 and sub sinus/square on OSC2. The moving feel of the bassline is achieved with filter modulation. IE ... they let one LFO control the cutoff automaticly. |

| could anyone acually make a sample of this being made? cause its a rocking bassline and no-one has used it since. |

Strange, but true... I'd be pleased to find out as well :) |

Umm yeah, its an offbeat bassline :confused:
The rest of it is monophonic lead arpeggio which spans 2 octaves I think so the lowest notes of the arp will step either side of the offbeat bassline, giving the impression of a more complicated bass arrangement. but it really isn't. I'm thinking of the original Binary Finary version of 1998 so I'm not sure about any of the mixes. A soundclip perhaps?
I know 1998 uses an analogue monosynth for the lead but I'm not sure which one. Its not a minimoog because of the fast filter modulation (which steps on a minimoog). The filter is also heavily saturated, which gives it an 'electric' static kind of quality as the filter opens up. I've never been able to reproduce this type of effect convincingly with a digital synth but you can get close to it with ImpOSCar and the filter overdrive and saturation set up high with middling resonance and stereo width of the oscillators set pretty high.
Its a monophonic single saw wave sound, with negative filter modulation on the envelope and little to no filter envelope decay and release which makes the sound kind of pluck like. On ImpOSCar I can get close stacking a single saw with a sine wave or a skinny pulse wave with an octave difference between the two oscillators. Keyfollow on the filter is set pretty low but not all the way down. There is an LFO modulating the cutoff of the filter too.
I had a go at recreating the lead for 1998 on ImpOSCar a while back so I'll see if I can dig it up for you tommorow. I don't have an internet connection at home though so I can't get it for you today. |

| I think Human Evolution uses a synth sound like that for their basslines, especially in the song "glide scope" |
