I used to have the Arp Odyssey, which stevie had been known to use in a lot of music and i know i used to get sounds like that out of it.
It is hard to know for sure but it does sound similar with the technique he is using to play.

If you only mean the bass sound, it's the moog.  A minimoog can sound like that by itself, no effects, no pedals, no modifications.  If he wasn't able to tweak the filter setting as he played, he may have had his assistant plug in a ribbon controller.

this is sort of off-topic, but stevie wonder is soooo so damn amazing. i can listen to his stuff anytime, anywhere, on repeat. whenever i feel like i am doing a good job musically, i just listen to some stevie wonder and that shuts my ego up real good.

heart heart heart STEVIE FTW!!! heart heart heart

minimoog + talkbox with bass guitar underneath
'follower controlling a band pass filter ' would give a similar result, but the effect in the song is so irregular and natural it must be a talkbox.

I did some more digging this morning.  I think I guessed correctly yesterday:

Stevie was also big into layering tracks so linde's idea of bass guitar and moog together seems likely.

Sounds like a bass guitar going an envelope follower controlling a band pass filter (or a big peak low pass filter), but I'm not sure. It could very well be both a bass guitar and a moog, looking at the personnel list Lazerbeat posted.

Could well be right. The Wikipage lists a moog and and arp but isn't specific about which models.

Sick video, lazerbeat!  I don't think it was the talkbox on "Maybe Your Baby" though.

I am going to go out on a limb here and guess at talkbox? Stevie was a biiiiig talkbox user. in the late 60s to earlymid 70's. He went kind of, Little Stevie wonder, BADASS STEVIE WONDER, Ballad stevie wonder.

Seriously is there ANYTHING cooler than this video?
