Close but no cigar kascollet. The clip contains a Thumb, a Sadowsky and a crap drum machine (and nothing much else). So is the Thumb playing the bass line or the flange? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8deWzin2cRk
Hats off to Mr Praline. The real (dry) bassline is a Sadowsky Modern V (and rather a nice one - wasted on my unwieldy hands really). The wet could be anything, as you say; and in fact it is just my old Thumb NT5 1988 (the one in the avatar pic with the weird two-tone grain), suffering the triple humiliation of being (a) played by me, (b) tuned to high c, and (d) processed through my son's guitar amp FX.
Apologies to any who feel they will never get back the minutes they have now wasted on this thread. I was trying out a Zoom R24 recording thingy that my wife gave me for my birthday (she worked out just how to keep me out of the way).
A large Cuban cigar to Mr Praline (subject to import restrictions and me not smoking it first)
Am impressed by Mr Praline's super-keen ears (yay - and sorry I smoked the cigar; but i almost thought about you as i reeled from the Havana hit). As a punishment for those who dissed my EQ (understandably) or mistook the Thumb (much more understandably), here is a short clip with the same offenders plus an acoustic instrument that I actually know how to play (er, compared with bass) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45HO1PGtnpc&feature=endscreen&NR=1
