So, this bass that madeon has made for the more electro-ish drop of technicolor has stumped me for ages:

Anyone have any idea how to approach the sound that starts at around 2:11?

thanks!

I listened to that part a thousand times, and I think it's a heavily detuned saw with lots of distortion.
It is hard to tell..

I think he also uses a good Multiband Distortion Plugin, such as Izotope Trash

Have you thought that could be several bass lines coupled with saturation and compression so that they sound flat

hmmmm my first thought was a square wave with a bandpass envelope and heavy distortion, but it could very well be a bunch of layers compressed to sound flat

people always overthink these sounds.
learn a wavetable synth. even z3ta 1 gets sounds like that effortlessly. no fx needed
