As well as getting ideas down quickly and programming performance sequences, this is a brilliant way to preview patches while you are editing them. Up to four sequences can be played in - with legato and rests - and assigned to any one of the 32 rhythmic patterns. The fun really starts when you engage the Step Sequencer. The Arp can be directed to run through 32 different rhythmic patterns in different directions with a switchable octave range. Although it looks like there are four LFO waveforms, the ˜LFO Slew' function can be used freely to sculpt LFOs into smoother wave-shapes.Īrpeggiator and step sequencer: Bass Station II's Arpeggiator and Step Sequencer are killer performance and production tools. LFO One is dedicated to pitch modulation whereas LFO Two is used to modulate osc pulse width and filter frequency.

The first envelope is an ADSR amp envelope and the second is a mod envelope that can be used to modulate filter frequency, oscillator pitch and osc pulse width. Modulation: There are two envelope generators and two low frequency oscillators (LFOs). This is very good at crunchy, sound-mulching effects that substantially fatten up bass and lead patches. The second effect is ˜Osc Filter Mod' which creates a distinctive FM-type sound by using Oscillator Two to modulate the filter frequency. Bass Station II's Distortion function can add gentle warmth, filthy granularity and anything in between. Analog distortion drives circuit components to add new frequencies to the sound. The ˜Acid' filter is based on a diode ladder filter design that delivers a characteristically 303-esque sound that is designed to squelch!Įffects: Bass Station II has two effects (not including the filter overdrive). It can be square, sine or narrow pulse width, delivering the characteristically ˜fat' bass tone.įilters: You can select between two discrete filters - ˜Acid' or ˜Classic' - each with a built in overdrive for pushing filter tones from dry, to warm, to nasty! The ˜Classic' Bass Station filter can be switched between low pass, high pass and band pass at 12 or 24dB slopes. Oscillators One and Two are switchable between sine, sawtooth, square and variable pulse width, and Oscillator Three - the sub osc - can be set to one or two octaves below Oscillator One.

There are two fully independent oscillators plus a sub oscillator (which is the critical component in creating rich, analog bass sounds). Oscillators: Bass Station II is built on three analog oscillators and a noise generator. Bass Station II is a fully class compliant MIDI device with MIDI I/O on 5 pin din ports - for connecting to other MIDI outboard - and can interface with your computer over USB. It has been developed as a ˜synth-action' keyboard, where each key is individually sprung so it is light to the touch and highly responsive to the synth engine.

The key-mechanism consists of 25 full sized keys that are velocity sensitive with assignable aftertouch. It comes with 64 killer factory presets, space for 64 of your own sounds on the hardware, and you can store more on your computer. Critically, you can store and recall patches on Bass Station II. The hardware has been laid out in modules with dedicated pots, switches, sliders and buttons for all major parameters.
The signal path is pure analog - including the effects section.
It brings the best elements of the original Bass Station into a brand new design with re-worked modulation, effects, filters and more like the Bass Station, but much much bigger. The classic Novation Bass Station, reworked for the 21st Century.īass Station II is an analog mono-synth with a talent for bass, but a sound-engine that is versatile enough to kick out sharp leads and crisp arpeggios.
