notes
A single detuned-free Minimoog saw with the sub oscillator an octave down gives the octave-jump disco bass its weight; the filter envelope claps shut fast so it reads as a pluck rather than a sustained note. Sits mono and tight against the kick, driven lightly into the ladder filter for grit.
