Try starting with this:

Bass

  1. Oscillators: Saw Wave. Add a sub oscillator one octave below with a Square Wave.

  2. Filter: Low Pass. Turn Cutoff down until it matches the tone. Then boost Res by quite a bit in order to create an almost throat-like point

  3. LFO: Saw wave, routed to Volume. 1/16th note rate.

  4. Distortion: Just a touch to make it a bit dirty.

  5. Mod Wheel: Route it to Cutoff. Hold down a note to start the bass and then move the Mod Wheel up and down to get that changing filter movement

Pad (Background Lead)

  1. Oscillator: Medium Pulse Wave, to be modulated by...

  2. LFO: Triangle or Sine wave, routed to the oscillator's pulse width. This will take some tweaking, but I'm using Primer, and I have the Amount set to about 0.73, and the Rate at 1/8.

  3. Voices: Poly mode. 3 voices (or more).

  4. Mod Wheel: Just like the Bass. Route it to Cutoff. Hold down a chord, and then move the Mod Wheel up and down to get that changing filter movement
