6:26 There were several minutes of his solo being unused for the final cut, some however made it to the music video version which had a completely different melody compared to the album cut.
The end sound feature crossfaded from two separate performance. The first part of the solo can her heard here: ua-cam.com/video/FH_GWTKOPFM/v-deo.html 2:54
I also read in a modern drummer 🥁 June 1987 in a interview with John jr Robinson he said he used the emu sp12 for some of the drums sounds on the BAD ALBUM 💿
I’m a guitarist but I’m getting into the classic synths. I was born in 1980, I have a good reference for what was around in the 80s and 90s. I can’t believe something like the Sinclavier was possible back then. It’s the synth version of landing on the moon.
I got to use a synclavier quite by accident. This was around the late 80s. A studio I was renting time in one had one of the synths. It was like something from another planet to us. We really couldn't figure out how to fully use it and wasn't going to use expensive studio time to do that. Still, we got some pretty cool sounds out of it that ended up on one of the songs. Music tech was moving forward so fast back then! It was a very exciting time.
The music BAD the bass of the track according to the Synclavier programmer at the time, around 5 samples of different timbres were used in overlapping layers to create this iconic bassline sound.
Just fyi Bruce always said NEVER record str8 to digital first, as (if can) record in analog first and then can transfer digitally and then you have options of both to go back to, but go str8 digital, well can’t go to analog this stuck and no option. invincible, his last full album 2001, which is not a fave of mine was straight digital. It was overproduced it was over processed and just too digital. It had no warmth of live musicians and it missed that human element. I love Rodney Jerkins, but he was not the right fit for Michael Jackson..
That first bassline sound reminds me of Super Metroid "Brinstar" level.
Quickly becoming one of my favorite production channels!
That’s great to hear, thank you!
This series F----ing ROCKS BRAH !!! We wants MO' !!!
Thank you!, there’ll definitely be more!

I prefer the solo onthe video clip than the track

And also Greg Phillinganes said the minimoog was used on man in mirror as the synth bass 👍🏾

It really felt like that at the time too, the sounds they made were so different from what had gone before.

Cool! It's unclear who played it. Greg Phillinganes? Chris Currell? Someone else?
I hear some upright bass in there too.
Dude. You rock!
Love Michael!
Very impressive 👏
Thank you!
I subscribed to you.
It’s much appreciated! 😃
Great Video 👍 I’m a bit skeptical about the MKS Bass on Man in the Mirror. May i ask where did you get the Information from? Thank you
Thank you. I can’t remember exactly. Just looking around in forums now, it seems that some people say the MKS and some say the Minimoog.
@@mixingmasteringonline All right, thanks for answering 👍
Hoping you would've mentioned how the songs were sped up on the final album

It was recorded straight to digital tape on The Mitsubishi X-850.
@ True, what a time. Bruce was never fan. RIP to all 3 legends and RIP to “The Chase”
sorry but your voice is hard to understand
