For bass guitars its 80% up to filter envelope and the right curves, normaly scaled by velocity. Here is my try. Its not as close as it could be. I gonna try it with another synth.

Just noticed, that the Subtractor has a good electric bass called "FM-elec" in the FSB.

I will try with Thor. If you have PX7, it would be the best candidate.

ELO, brilliant. How was the gig?

Yeah that's a pretty good patch but it lacks the fullness in the bass frequencies (I think) the original video has.

I am joining the party a bit late, partly because i am not very happy with the result and partly because i hoped to have more spare time to play with it. However here is my try. It's not very close to the original patch but I think it sounds something like FM bass guitar :)
I hope it will do the job or at least be a good starting point for further tweaking :)
Have a good day.

P.S. If i have some free time these days, i will try to make it a bit closer to the original.

Not bad mate.

The actual TX81Z in this vid has a timbre to it though I can't put my finger on. Does anyone know what I'm talking about here, a fullness or thickness to it?
