I've been trying to achieve it (or atleast something similar) for 2-3 weeks now. You know, the filter-swiped/lfo bass. What I am missing is the bass sound without the filter. I know it's some kind of reece/hoover, but can't really distinguish it.

Examples:

ah ganja man quality tune Big Grin

, had some good times with this tune pumping through my telephone speakers lol Tongue

but anyways the bass sounds like a sine or something to me, its not a saw or sqaure thats what I know Tongue

doesnt really sound distorted either.
maybe a sub bass, with something high passed on it?

idk man hope this helped a bit lol Tongue

They sound like filtered squares and saws to me.

I doubt they're too complicated to make though, by today's standards at least.

Don't overgeneralise, I wear my hair in a ponytail most of the time too, and I'm far from being an arsehole. Big Grin

On-topic: Sounds like a sine sub with a lowpassed squarewave to me.

Just the way I thought it is. I did experiment with squares, but I'm off trying it again. When I come up with useful results, I will post a tut Big Grin

Thanx everyone. If anyone has another advice, please don't hesitate to share.

Nah, no offence taken, mate Wink

@ Muad'Dib: I found a similar sounding bass among my older Reason Combinator patches, which I figure if tweaked could result in something like Aphrodites bass.
It's comprised of 2 Thor instances with each 3 OSCs.
First one is setup with 2 sinewaves, one octave apart, going through a lowpass filter.
Third OSC is a squarewave, also lowpassed but around 260hZ so the tone doesn't get muffled.
Second Thor is setup much like a basic reese, but with a lowpass at 700hZ so it is muffled enough not to sound like a reese.
If you tweak the filters a bit and slap on an LFO, it sounds pretty close.
No idea if it helps, but could give you a push in the right direction?
