«Morphing Saw Bass» by ecbeckmann

This is a nice morphing saw bass, that uses multi-voice detuning and stereo expansion for a nice, wide feel, as well as a decaying low pass filter over the course of the sound. Be careful when using higher notes or else the filter may clip.

nice! played with it for two hours =) note you don't multiply output by the env so there is clicks
