The Novation Bass Station by GForce

Post by Geoff Grace »

This software version of Novation’s 1993 Bass Station release is described as “sonically faithful to the original but with extensive enhancements, now offering polyphony, unison modes, a powerful modern sequencer, and expansive modulation capabilities with the advanced X-LFO and X-ADSR modulators.” Novation released an earlier software version of this instrument, but I believe it’s discontinued.

Key Features include:
• Mono, Mono Unison, Legato, Autoglide and Poly Modes, up to 16 voices
• Augmented with vast modulation options via X-Modifiers
• Arpeggiator and Sequencer including macro automation
• 2-pole or 4-pole filter with screeching resonance
• Fully-scalable Ul
• Over 300 presets
• Preset Browser
• Pan Spread
• High-Pass Filter, Distortion, Chorus, Delay and Reverb effects
• Two programmable Macros for manipulation of sounds
• Programmable Velocity Responses and Poly Aftertouch

Developed in collaboration with Novation, the Bass Station is available on intro for £49.99. The normal price will be £99.99.

Hmm. I have the ever helpful Trilian, RePro, Zebra and a number of MiniMoog emulations.. Do I need this? I know it was well thought of back in the day

I think it's a worthwhile purchase. The original hardware unit was on my short list back in the '90s. GForce's additions make it even more desirable, especially at the intro price.

That said, I don't think you need it, Larry, considering the soft synths you already have.

Would it be a nice addition though? Yes, I think so.

Best,

Geoff
