Hi,

could anybody tell me, which RE or stock synth in Reason can produce a sound like the bass sound in this song (starting at 1:05) ?

Antidote would probably be the easiest, as that is a "supersaw" bass with a fast decay and Antidote is very good at those.  I suspect you could do a similar sound in a lot of synths like Thor for instance but Antidote would probably be the best.

Edit: cool music on your soundcloud!  I used to do EBM/industrial myself but now it's mostly synthpop.  If you're interested at all in my industrial music see https://somedesperateglory.bandcamp.com ... urvivalist

Addict is the most EBM song on there, by the way.  Good luck on the bass sound!
Still nostalgic about the old days, writing songs with my Amiga 500, Korg M1, and Ensoniq ASR-10 sampler.

thanks Carl, I will try to get this bass sound out of Antidote (to be honest I am not very good at tweaking, but I try.)

As for my soundcloud-site, I have the problem that I both like electronic and guitar based music, so I feel to make different kinds of music under different band names.

btw, I like your Album and download it at this very moment :)

cheers

There is this demo song from Reason 5. Narrow Scape by Josh Mobley. The bass sounds similar but i don't know if it's the sound you are looking for.



Here is the patch. You can try some tweaking, apply some compression etc...
