Pulsar 23: How to make a warm funky bass

The Pulsar 23 is a semi modular techno beast - but it can also create warm funky basses with just a little bit of patching!
In this video we will create a bass patch and see how we can use the envelope of another channel to modulate the bass filter.
You can listen to the full song that is played at the end of the video here: • #Jamuary2022 Day 30 //...

I'm loving your Pulsar-23 content. I really hope you do some more. Please help us unlock the abilities of this otherworldly sonic black box of mysteries. Subscribed as well.

[@mundelator]

Very nice tricks, and very well presented ! Please do some more. Subscribed 🙂

[@InFamousProductions]

thanks man! I'm going to try that out now. and the rest of your sounds are suuuuuper clean and crisp. Is the rest of the track coming from the Deluge only or other gear as well? It sound super pro .

[@Karousin]

Thanks a lot man :-) The Deluge plays the drums, the pads are done by Novation Peak.

Great tips!!

The bass channel of the pulsar-23 is my favourite ever monosynth for bass. It's so creamy. Crazy to think it's digital.

[@Karousin]

Yeah that really is crazy! I guess so many other parts are analog (filter, overdrive, ...) that you can't tell the difference...

[@guitdafunkadelik]

Thanks for sharing that groove! Keep those patch coming, like how you present it, subbed 🤗

[@Karousin]

Thanks a lot, I will =)

Posts and alligator clips, instead of plugs and sockets?

[@Karousin]

Yes exactly, I think the creators once said they can fit more connection points onto the unit this way. It has its up- and downsides I guess. Feels less sturdy and "controlled" than audio jacks, but you don't need any multipliers since you can just put multiple cables on the same pin.

[@InFamousProductions]

also , there are 6 CV mini jacks that you can use to connect external CV. I have a Dave Smith Pro 2 that I send LFO's out of into the Pulsar 23, and it works amazing. opens the machine up even more.
