akira and danimal cannon called it. the posts following theirs are just chewing the fat.

Agree with most of you, here is my opinion
any FM, C64, NES also Gameboy

You could also have dirty bass mixing thoses (specially with SAW wave)
SIN, (SIN+SAW), TRIANGLE, (TRIANGLE+SAW+SQUARE), (TRIANGLE+SAW)

I mostly experiment with NES music, here are some of my "bassie tracks"

No irony!

I forget NBC probably didn't have these Public Service Announcements worldwide. From the wiki:

"The More You Know is a series of Emmy Award-winning public service announcements (PSAs) broadcast on the NBCUniversal family of channels in the United States and other locations. The spots feature personalities from various NBC shows. Tom Brokaw was the first person to do a The More You Know spot; it aired on NBC in January 1989 (these replaced the One to Grow On PSAs that were used from 1983 to 1989). The first 'comet trail' star logo was created by Paul Johnson on an animation stand using a slit scan technique at R/Greenberg Associates (now R/GA Digital Studios) in Manhattan. They were later updated using 3D CG. These PSAs are broadcast regularly during NBC's programming in primetime, late night, and Saturday morning."

Here's an example:

In short, I didn't know about the differences in triangle waveform generation. I researched it a bit after reading your post. I now feel a bit smarter than I did this time last week.

I don't think there was any irony.

Uhm, I didn't get the irony... xD

Just died. Hahahaha.

Damn son! Thanks Akira!

yeah, you can get some nice growly bass sounds, but it doesn't have a ton of low-end

personally, i think you can get some really nice low end out of the game boy's WAV channel

Sidbass sounds cool but it isnt SUPER BASSY to me. FM Sub Sine for wins always.

Also, the genesis does get some raw fucking bass. otherwise i love sid bass.

and if you can't have either, wav channel does good stuff too

Hell yeah, just fyi, all moon tone basslines are fm

Well, no, it depends, since there are different methods to produce it, and then you pass it by an 8-bit DAC... in this case I have to say, it's detrimental to the case of the Amiga: it ends up sounding like shit if it exceeds one or two cycles.

But when you do cycle ones you are limited by the frequency response... It's a tough one every time I try to get decent bass on my Amiga.

Your choice is totally valid, I did say computer or console.

Bass is in the butt of the beholder.
