Wow, this was a invaluable tutorial in understanding how this bass lines was created. My ears told me lots was going on, but I didn’t have basic understanding of the parameter tweaking needed to dial it in. So much info here for me to study! Thanks!
@@davidgahan-ks5jhAlan created most of DM's basslines, as a producer, enhanced many of Martin's basic basslines, yeah, this one may have actually been made by Flood, only they know
Aside from being the first video on this subject to actually get it right, this is also a celebration of thoughtful sound design and the work that it involves- glad this popped up in my feed. Well done
Amazing video. One listens to the track and you think wow, what a synth bassline. Will appreciate it a lot more knowing the intricate work that goes into making it.
I've been trying to figure out how that bassline (and another similar one on Cause and Effect's What Do you See) has been done for 30 years. Thanks for the video!
Like the original...amazing great job my friend!Enjoy the silence is my favourite song of D.M !Congratulations..please made a cover of it!Greetings from Greece!!
Alguien sabe con qué instrumento fue hecho en esa época? Que sintetizador utilizo realmente DM en su momento, para crear esta línea de Bajo. >> does any one Know what instrument DM usted ti create this bassLine?.. in some videos si possible ese año Emulator… but what do you think?
This is so great! You solved a mystery for me too. I was trying to use my ears to see if the bassline was made of any other notes another two notes at each end of the octave, but you should brilliantly how sculpting the sound brings in the illusion of other notes, esp. as you start tweaking at 2:30 and drop out some of the notes for spaces. Does that sense of illusion make sense to you?
The reply I was looking for. My OCD unnecessarily over-replied to this video. I didn't realize it was only a 32 step sequencer. I wish I could figure out the other 32 steps to the bass line. Differs from the first 2 bars.
They had a tape machine backstage. Everything else was played live. Any sequencer-type parts (like this bassline) would be on tape. They were playing the melodic and chordal parts live. So the answer is, there was no midi clock to the performers, they just played their keyboards. Saw this tour, as well as the previous two. To me, those were the deepest most vibey Mode shows. After that it got a bit 'rock' for my tastes.
I love it BUT (I hate to be that guy) but this pattern is only the first 2 measures of a 4 bar pattern. Bars 3 and 4 are very different from 1 and 2. You have to listen to the song carefully, even slow it down a little to hear the pattern in bars 3 and 4. On the 3rd bar, you clearly hear additional beats come in. Even I am having trouble isolating the exact pattern to 3 and 4. And it's driving me INSANE! ;) - aaaaand I found a bass tab video that expands on this one. BTW....fkn-awesome dude!
I have heared that during "Devotional Tour" something strange happened and Alan had to recreate all such settings needed to continue next leg of the tour.It took 2 weeks...
Of course but the pro 3 only has a 16-step sequencer, it takes a minimum of 32 steps, however you can sequence it from your daw through a midi connection
@@gonzz_f hello mate. so the same effect can be achieved by sending a midi 64 step sequence from ableton that has velocity modulation data equivalent to yours. I though it might have been the filter envelope changing too but it's just the way the velocity effects the particular wave form you have created
amianto humedo m5 Es un buen sinte para diseño de sonido, con una matriz de modulación insuperable, si puedes adquirirlo yo no dudaria, pero pruébalo antes ya que es una inversión costosa, solo debes tener claro el estilo de sonidos que buscas ya que si quieres pads multitimbrales o sonidos mas modernos, hay otras opciones.
Hey Gonzalo, I started with the initial patch, but my Pro2 has a different sound on the basis program. Did you alter the initial sound before you recorded the video? Just ask fo interest.
Ha Wei, no way, what you see is what you hear, the initial sound for every oscilator is a pulse wave, pay attention to every detail, i’m sure you’ll find the way, there’s no hidden tricks
Hey could you PLEASE do more of those sound patch creating step by step tutorials possibly could you do more Depeche Mode older stuff like you did with “See You”??? Are you by chance on fb messenger I’d love to chat with you if you could?
Wow, that's really almost identical and spot on. I'm a huge DM fan, and I've listened to that song hundreds (if not thousands) of time. Great job man! What synth are you using???
THERES GOT TO BE A WAY TO PLAY THIS WITHOUT ALL THAT PROGRAMING... THE PATTERN AND THE VELOCITY DATA SHOULD BE GENERATED DIRECTLY ON THE KEYBOARD WITHOUT ALL THAT KNOB TWEAKING AND BUTTON EDITING...
Styles2psr I know, but the pro 2 only allows me to program 32 steps, if you want to program all the patterns you can play the sequence from an external device.

classic Alan Wilder's bassline magic, great job recreating it 😄👍🏻
Bassline was made by Flood.
What classic Alan???? Please explain
@@davidgahan-ks5jhAlan created most of DM's basslines, as a producer, enhanced many of Martin's basic basslines, yeah, this one may have actually been made by Flood, only they know

Excellent job mate !
The original bass line sequence is 64 steps (4 bars long ), not 32.
I know, but the pro 2 only allows me to program 32 steps, if you want to program all the patterns you can play the sequence from an external device.
@@gonzz_f Its a shame that such a powerful synth only has 32 steps.

You’re *crazy* man! (in a good way)
Fucking beautifl, bro. This is the job. good done
What did they have as a, like, master 'brain' sending out the midi clock when they did this tour?
They had a tape machine backstage. Everything else was played live. Any sequencer-type parts (like this bassline) would be on tape. They were playing the melodic and chordal parts live. So the answer is, there was no midi clock to the performers, they just played their keyboards. Saw this tour, as well as the previous two. To me, those were the deepest most vibey Mode shows.

You can leave free this sequence in nowdays disco and you'll have thousands people dancing for hours... and hours.. and hours!

That's right, but the sequencer of Pro-2 only has 32 steps, on a pro 3, with 64 steps I would have done it that way. 😉
so great... would that work on the pro-3 also?
yeah, it works even better because the Pro 3 has a 64 steps sequencer

Totalmente! Por eso perduran

🎹👍
when adding the velocity...theres 12 values...for 16 notes??
Ignore me...theres only actually 12 notes in the 16 step sequence...apologies :-)

I'm not worthy to watch this.

I dont think he returned to Puk Studios in Denmark to recreate the bass line in the Roland 700 it was created. Probably used backing tracks.
Leslie Cruz I don’t think it was Alan’s I think it belonged to Goh Hotoda I think he used that to create then sample it to the Emax III
