Nectar ElementsOriginally launched in 1993, Bass Station’s flexible DCO oscillators and warm analogue signal path defined countless dance and electronic hits. Now a classic, its iconic sound is available as a software plug-in, carefully modelled to faithfully recreate the sounds of a monophonic, dual-oscillator analogue synthesiser.
From deep fat bass sounds to clean screaming leads, this mix of 100 classic original and stunning new sounds create the warmth and resonance missing in today's modern digital synths.
The Classic Sound of Analogue
A recreation of the classic Bass Station analogue synthesiser, carefully modelled to maintain the distinct character of the iconic original.
Simple Two Oscillator Design
Faithfully recreated two oscillator monophonic design, carefully modeled to preserve the tone of the classic sawtooth and square waveforms of the original.
Classic Filter
Classic ladder filter sound modeling of the 12/24 dB Low-pass filter, with all the warmth and resonance missing in today's modern digital synths.
Quick and Direct Synth When You Need It
Easy to access ADSR envelopes.
Unique Quirks of the Original
Oscillator Sync for complex, expressive timbres and unique tones.
Simple Modulation Routing
Easily routable LFOs create simple modulations, which can directly control the harmonic content of the sound by pulse width modulation or filter cut-off for dynamic sound variations.
More than the Original
For ease of use, the front panel has additional controls when compared to the original. The filter envelope has its own set of ADSR controls, and OSC1 and OSC2 have their own section for pitch modulation and PWM control.
Full Plug-in Support
Multiple instances and automation support. All controls receive MIDI.
100 Presets
Includes 100 classic original and stunning new sounds, from warm deep basses to screaming leads, all carefully crafted in the Novation factory.
