very close to original, the great acid house era sound that I have completely miss being too young at that time Posted by: mpxvm  on 2025-11-30 11:30:05

Thanks MPXVM, In April 1985, I would have been three years old. However, I appreciate the history of electronic music, and I think this would have been as influential as the Computer World album by Kraftwerk. Thanks for the encouragement. I listened again and it still doesn't sound quite right. I saw you make a lot of covers, and I always thought how do people find those notes as I am terrible at playing by ear. I wrote a script in MATLAB which I call the "16/32 step FFT energy threshold bass note detector". What it does is if I cut a perfect loop, it asks if I want to perform a low pass filter, and then performs an FFT on each step where the threshold is exceeded. It then graphs the wave split into steps (so that I can visually transpose) and lists the fundamental frequency of each step. It still doesn't sound quite right to me. I next tried isolating the bass in https://vocalremover.org/splitter-ai and feeding it back into my MATLAB tool. Still, I think it is a good prototype for an electro bassline.
