Description

The original Novation Bass Station, released in 1993, is celebrated for its raw, punchy, and analogue sound, distinguishing itself during a time dominated by digital synthesizers. The Novation Bass Station by GForce remains sonically faithful but is extensively enhanced with polyphony, unison modes, a modern sequencer, and expanded modulation capabilities via the advanced X-LFO and X-ADSR, adding unprecedented depth and flexibility. The Novation Bass Station by GForce blends vintage charm with modern possibilities through key enhancements:

1. Enhanced Signal Path: Retains the authentic tones while adding new waveforms, a sub OSC, FM, noise, LFO sync & retrig, discreet key tracking for the $24$dB filter, additional mod sources, pan spread, vintage knob and more.
2. Polyphony Up To 16 Voices And Unison: Adds polyphony and mono unison, unlike the monophonic original.
3. X-Modifier: Enables direct modulation of most parameters for unparalleled creative sound transformation, with a scope showing the sum of the modulation.
4. High Pass Filter: Allows for more precise frequency control for cleaner mixes and intricate sound design.
5. Distortion, Chorus, Delay, And Reverb Effects: Integrated effects expand the sonic palette for lush and dynamic soundscapes.
6. Two Versatile Macros: Provide real-time control over key parameters for expressive performance and sound customization, which can be modulate by the sequencer.
7. Built-In Arpeggiator And Modern Sequencer: Simplify the creation of dynamic rhythmic and melodic patterns. The sequencer includes individual step length, velocity, slide, swing, accent, probability, two Macro tracks, arp chords, scales, and extensive randomisation options.
8. Advanced Patch Browser: Allows quick finding and customization of sounds from a vast preset library.

The GForce Bass Station, featuring a fully resizable UI, a powerful Preset Browser, Scope, and over $300$ new production-ready presets from top sound designers, is fully ready to inspire future musical ideas.
