The original sound was generated by a Moog Source synthesizer, combining stacked sawtooth and square wave oscillators for a thick, pulsating texture. This bass employs unison detuning and chorus effects to enhance width, paired with a quick filter decay that creates percussive, plucked characteristics. The synth's rhythmic pattern becomes a central element of the track's structure, particularly noticeable during the instrumental breaks and vocal transitions.","audio_clip":"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/audiblegenius\/new-order-blue-monday-88-bass","recipe":"<div><h3>Voices<\/h3><ul><li>Voice Mode: <span>Mono<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3>Amp Envelope<\/h3><ul><li>Attack: <span>0 ms<\/span><\/li><li>Decay: <span>250 ms<\/span><\/li><li>Sustain: <span>20%<\/span><\/li><li>Release: <span>160 ms<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3>Oscillators<\/h3><ul><li>Oscillator <span>1<\/span><ul><li>Waveform: <span>Saw<\/span><\/li><li>Volume: <span>70%<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Oscillator <span>2<\/span><ul><li>Waveform: <span>Pulse<\/span><\/li><li>Pulse Width: <span>100%<\/span><\/li><li>Volume: <span>30%<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Unison<ul><li>Oscillators: <span>All<\/span><\/li><li>Voice Count: <span>4<\/span><\/li><li>Detune Range: <span>11<\/span> Cents<\/li><li>Stereo Spread: <span>100%<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Reset All Oscillators Phase On Note Start: <span>Yes<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3>Filter<\/h3><ul><li>Type: <span>Low Pass<\/span><\/li><li>Cutoff: <span>55%<\/span><\/li><li>Key Tracking: <span>50%<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3>Filter Envelope<\/h3><ul><li>Modulation Amount: <span>25%<\/span><\/li><li>Attack: <span>0 ms<\/span><\/li><li>Decay: <span>300 ms<\/span><\/li><li>Sustain: <span>0%<\/span><\/li><li>Release: <span>10000 ms<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3>Chorus<\/h3><ul><li>Mix: <span>50%<\/span> Wet<\/li><li>Rate: <span>Medium<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div>","observations":"","sources":"<ul>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.musicradar.com\/news\/blue-monday-synth-sound\">Greatest synth sounds: New Order - Blue Monday (MusicRadar)<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/siebz.wordpress.com\/2017\/10\/05\/blue-monday-new-order-track-teardown\/\">Blue Monday Track Teardown (Siebz)<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.soundonsound.com\/people\/recreating-new-orders-blue-monday-live\">Recreating New Order's 'Blue Monday' Live (Sound On Sound)<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.kvraudio.com\/forum\/viewtopic.php?t=231820\">New Order \"Blue Monday\" Bass Synth Discussion (KVR Audio)<\/a><\/li>\r\n \t<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=3WKcLqG_jQ8\">New Order - Blue Monday Bass Tutorial (YouTube)<\/a><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>","community_thread_url":"https:\/\/audiblegenius.productlift.dev\/p\/5-sounds-of-80s-AHr7OI","patch_id":"","decade":"1980s","release_year":1988,"syntorial_essentials_lesson":"Key Tracking","syntorial_essentials_level":"30.
