Original Audio

The track’s arpeggiated bass synth enters at 2:27 in “Introspective II (TRANCEMAN2000’s Remix)” and drives the section with rapid, repeating 16th-note motion. The timbre is a two-octave stack of sawtooth waves with light unison for width. A sharp filter envelope and aggressive amp envelope give the sound its plucked, percussive attack.

Synth Patch Programming Recipe

Getting Started

• Start by initializing your synthesizer to a plain saw with no filter, modulation or effects. For soft synths use the "init"/"default" preset or the the button to reset all parameters to their default factory values.
• No two synths are exactly alike, so treat the values below as approximate, and use your ear.
• Percentage values (e.g. 50%) represent the relative position of a knob or slider within its full range. The full range of each parameter may differ from synth to synth, so use your ear.

Note: the patch settings may slightly differ in the Syntorial challenge.
