Cableguys x Excite Audio Bass Builder Bundle

This powerful bundle is designed to supercharge your productions with cutting-edge bass sounds, precision visual feedback, and advanced dynamic shaping tools. Whether you're producing Drum and Bass, Dubstep, Techno, or modern electronic music, this bundle gives you the tools to build, shape, and perfect your low end.

Groundbreaking Bass

Bloom Bass Impulse merges an extensive array of modern synth bass loops, samples, and one-shots into a versatile and dynamic instrument, meticulously crafted to inject your tracks with low-end and tailored to fuel genres that demand contemporary bass sounds.

From the pulsating energy of Drum and Bass’s Reese Bass to the acid squelch of 303s, the gritty growl of distorted basses, the depths of Sub-Bass, the precision of Tech, to the wobble of Dubstep, this tool is a treasure trove for anyone looking to anchor their tracks with a spectrum of cutting-edge bass.

Bloom Bass Impulse offers an intuitive path to finding the perfect bass sound, providing you with high-quality, royalty-free loops and one-shots ready to be morphed and manipulated. Switch between bass styles with ease, enhance their character with extensive effect modulation and tailor them to fit any mix with an array of focused processing options.

Crafting the ideal bassline is now an intuitive and engaging process, allowing for hands-on control over sample triggering and sound shaping. Four macro controls offer instant tonal adjustments, while the Edit page unveils detailed customisation tools, giving you complete control over sample manipulation, sequence creation, modulation and effects across 250 presets.

How it Works

Choose a key to work in, pick a preset or sample bank, and ignite one of 14 bpm-synced bass loops across two octaves. White keys initiate bass samples and loops, while black keys adjust characteristics such as playback speed and pitch, besides triggering bespoke sequences and effect modulation.

The four innovative macro controls: Sub-EQ for additional low-end tone shaping, Noise for texture, Crush for sample-rate reduction, and Width for subtle to extreme stereo expansion - steer a bespoke chain of effects, fine-tuned for the curated selection of bass samples that form the instrument.

See Your Sound

Get a deeper understanding of your sound than ever before with VISION 4X Lite, a powerful visual analysis plugin with maximum precision.

Developed in partnership with electronic music trio NOISIA, VISION 4X gives you the insights you need to prepare your tracks ready for competition with today’s top mixes, and the clarity to make the right mixing decisions with confidence – however modest your setup.

A Visual Dimension

Perfectly sync VISION 4X's Spectrogram to your DAW and customise the analysis timeframe for any project. Choose to run the analyser continuously, or loop a section of time and let it overlay. Alternatively, if you want to hone in on a particular sound, set the plugin to retrigger whenever a MIDI signal is received – ideal for comparing kicks in real-time.

Features

• 1 real-time, high-definition visual analyser
• 10 Colour Maps designed for maximum information density
• Customisable Frequency Range and dB Range for spectral analysis
• Freeze Display and Zoom-In functionality provides even deeper visualisation
• Focus the colour map on specific frequencies with Map Curve/Tone Bias
• Sync the analysis timeframe to your DAW
• 2 Display Modes - Continuous visualisation or Overlay for visualisation that loops a timeframe and redraws the analysis.
• MIDI retriggering - Restarts the analysis whenever a MIDI signal is received
• Information Bar shows pitch, note, dB and timing information on hover (A3 +7ct, -3.2db, bar 2.1.1)
• Stereo/Left/Right/Mid/Side modes
• Presets designed by Noisia
• Help Text
• Resizeable UI
• M1 Native
• Standalone mode
