Novation Bass Station II Analog Synthesizer -NEW

In Brief: 25-key Analog Synthesizer with Two Analog Filter Types, Two DCOs, One Sub-oscillator, Pattern-based Step Sequencer/Arpeggiator, and After touch.

The Novation Bass Station II is a digitally controlled analog mono synthesizer known for its powerful and tweakable sound, especially in generating subterranean low-end tones. It features an ultra-fat suboscillator and an overdrive-equipped filter section, making it a popular choice for synthesists. The synth has versatile capabilities, producing scorching lead sounds, mesmerizing sonic textures, and groundbreaking AFX mode, developed in collaboration with Aphex Twin through a free firmware update. AFX Mode allows users to assign a unique patch to every key, expanding the Bass Station II's sound design capabilities for use as a drum module, chord organ, and more.

The Bass Station II offers advanced sound sculpting tools, including microtuning editing, fixed duration envelopes for tightening drum patches, independent sub-oscillator tuning, oscillator glide diverge for unique portamento effects, filter tracking, oscillator error effect, and envelope retriggering for rhythmic manipulation. The paraphonic setting allows playing two notes at a time with separate pitches, ideal for layering tones or creating dynamic leads over a repeating bass figure.

With its 25-note keyboard supporting aftertouch, the Bass Station II provides expressive performances. It is well-suited for heavy-hitting bass with two main oscillators, hard-syncing for punchy tones, and a sub-oscillator for bottom-end reinforcement. The synth features two discrete filter designs, Classic and Acid filters, each with an overdrive circuit for varied tonal options.

The Bass Station II includes a built-in arpeggiator with 32 rhythmic patterns and a step sequencer that supports up to four user-created patterns. The step sequencer records legato and rests, allowing for expressive and dynamic sequence creation on the fly.
