Definitely sounds like FM bass to me.

....Im pretty sure that second clip audio was used in Top Gun somewhere........like when Maverick is having a crisis or something.......ha ha.

Maybe that bass is a pitched tone of Tom Cruise laughing all the way to the bank.

Your looking for a patch called Fretless Bass. It was a standard patch on every mid 80s synth. I'm not sure if the DX7 did it first but it is meant to sound like a fretless electric bass.

To make it you would want the pitch to slide up during the attach and have a less sharp attack than usual for a bass patch. A good patch would make the rate of the pitch slide velocity sensitive.

how I can make the same bass sound like that?

It is also in this clip at around 0.38 to 0.41 seconds

is it a DX7 sound?

I want to make similar sounding bass sounds using something like FM7 or anything else that is good.

What would be the way of designing or obtaining this sound?

Thanks

WHAT MOVIE IS THAT, AGAIN!?!?!

I was just watching it a few days ago..

Tango & Cash?
and yes, it's an fm bass->fretless, you can probably find the preset online somewhere..

Go on the net and download some DX7 patches, or do some tweaking in FM7, you'll nail that sound pretty quickly. I can do it on my Microkorg and it can only do crude 2-op FM.

That music in the Youtube clip is from Top Gun, I think from Harold Faltermeyer.
