Hi there,
I'm an analog noobie but I plan to buy an old synth (never too late) and I would like to know what is the analog synth who is able to do that bassline. Maybe every analog stuff can do bassline closer to this one but I would like to know anyway.

Iditentify the synth in this track

Thanks motf-118, I'm a fan of Lovebirds and that was a cool find. He rhymed off a bunch of old synths (Roland Juno-6, Arp Odyssey, Micromoog, Korg MS-10, Oberheim Matrix-1000...). Listening the original track in question the bassline isn't very remarkable. Any standard, half-decent analog synth could probably create something similar, methinks...
Gilles, I would suggest getting something easy to program (meaning plenty of knobs) and not too expensive and start to experiment. As suggested earlier, a Yamaha DX synth could probably do a similar sounds, but unless a close enough sound is already programmed as part of the unit, then have fun trying to program a new one (note my sarcasm there). DX synths are notoriously tedious to program!
Did you have any synths in mind? Perhaps some of us could tell you if it's a reasonable choice considering the sound you want.
