Matt Optical Wrote:All made from distorted (guitar pedal overdrive on low) Novation Basstation recorded with live LP filter movements/shapes by hand on DAT then resampled into Emu-E6400 Ultra with Glide setup and filtered with Env/KeySpan/LFO inputs and then by hand on top to make it move around (also Emu Chorus effect to fatten it more) plus a Focusrite Green Eq to distort/saturate it more and make it fatter and clearer(input drive and output drive plus eq bands all add up to a lot of saturation in that unit)...had a cheap ping-pong delay set ultra fast to add a tiny bit of width to the mono signal on a send from the desk with low cut out to stop phasing issues..;o
