Presets & Layer Controls – Create Monster Bass Lines Quickly & Easily!

Selecting Presets

Click on the arrows to scroll through the presets, or click on the preset name to bring up the list of presets. Presets are organised into folders which describe the sound as SIMPLE, LOW, SUB, HARSH, etc

Spend some time previewing the presets to get an understanding of the range of sounds and programming techniques that Bass Master has to offer. Play with the modulation wheel on your keyboard, as all patches are setup to use this to modify the sound of the patch.

Choose the ‘—INIT—‘ patch (found in either the INTRODUCTION or SIMPLE category) to set Bass Master to default.

Controlling Bass Master

Bass Master, like any other instrument plugin, can be played with your MIDI keyboard and all parameters controlled by clicking and dragging with your mouse. There are some keyboard + mouse click inputs that will give you more control of the plugin.

  • Fine control of parameters – Press CTRL + Mouse click and drag for fine control of any fader or knob.
  • Reset Parameter – Press ALT + Mouse click to reset any parameter to default value.
  • MIDI Learn Parameters – All knobs and faders can be mapped to your MIDI keyboard / controller. Simply right-click on the control to bring up the MIDI learn window then move a control on your MIDI keyboard / controller.

To remove or edit the learned MIDI, right click on the same parameter, where you can re-assign or remove the MIDI.

Layer Section

This is where you can select your sound sources. It’s divided into TOP LAYER and SUB LAYER. In most cases you want to have an ‘interesting’ sound with more frequency content in the TOP LAYER, and a ‘simple’, or ‘subby’ sound in the SUB LAYER, but you can load any sample into each layer for more creative sound design.

  • Waveform selection – to select a wave, click on the wave name and pick from the dropdown list. Press the arrows to move forward and backwards or the random icon to be given any random one of the 217 waveforms.

As Bass Master uses a single sample mapped across all notes, as you play higher, one-shot sounds will sound shorter as you go up. This is like the days of old samplers, and adds a certain ‘resampled’ sound to Bass Master.

  • Layer Envelopes – The Top Layer has a full ADSR envelope, to set the Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release of the layer, whereas the Sub Layer has just Attack and Release.
  • Top Layer Sample Start – The Top Layer has SAMPLE START control. This can be used in lots of creative ways to alter the sound of the wave. Some of the one-shots have lots of sound variety through the waveform, or you may want to remove the attack part of a percussive sound.
  • Sub Layer Octave – Use the OCT control to change the Sub layer octave from 0 to +/- 1 octave. This can be used to change the octave relationship between Top and Sub Layers.

Layer Mixer

Use the MIXER to balance the TOP and SUB Layers. Note that these level controls are applied to the signal before the Filter, Distortion and other FX, so the level will affect how the distortion sounds.

Sub Direct Out

Direct out allows you to keep the sub-layer unfiltered and clean for a solid foundation. Press DIRECT OUT button to bypass the Sub Layer from Filter and all Layer FX. The Sub layer always goes  through the Master FX Frequency booster.

For more details please read the User Manual HERE.

Take Your Bass Lines To The Next Level With Modulation, EQ, Filters & Effects!

Filter Section

The FILTER section is where you can start to shape your sound.

The onboard filter offers 13 filter types: including a range of low-pass, band-pass and high-pass models, ladder filters and a comb filter. The filter envelope (ADSR) and LFO (including Random and Drift shapes) give Bass Master even more sculpting power.

Layer FX

Bass Master has 3 FX engines that you can use to process either the layers. For most bass sounds, you want a nice clean Sub layer (DIRECT OUT set to ON), so you don’t add effect to that layer, but you can add as much or as little FX to the Top layer as you like.

Bass Master offers up three effects:

  • Distortion – has five algorithms with Drive and Colour, for warming saturation or drastic transformation
  • Stereo Chorus – has four algorithms with Amount and Rate, for slight thickening or all-out stereo widening
  • Reverb Send – contains Bright, Mid and Dark algorithms with Level and Size controls, to add space to sounds

Master Fx Frequency Booster

This section can be used to add even more beef to your sound. Frequency booster is based around 3 bands of compression, Top, Middle, and Bottom (Hi, Mid and Low frequency).

The Frequency Booster heats up the signal in these three bands to subtly shape or drastically overcook the sound.

Glide & Modulation Section

The PITCH and GLIDE controls give you options on how to make your notes bend and slide. These are really useful for creating more wonky basslines.

Global controls include Legato and Portamento settings with Glide time and a pitch bend range of up to 12 semitones.

The Modulation section contains settings for how your modulation wheel on your MIDI keyboard can control the sound of Bass Master. Every preset in Bass Master has the modulation wheel setup, with some subtly changing the sound, and others completely transforming it.

There are 3 destinations, meaning that the mod wheel can control up to 3 things, each by a different amount.

Each preset comes with parameters ready-mapped to the three-slot mod wheel matrix, meaning that every patch is ready to modulate throughout your track.

Saving Presets

If you have made changes to a factory preset, or created your own, you’re going to want to save it.  There are two save buttons.

  • Save – will overwrite the current preset
  • Save As – will give you the option to create and name a new preset, opening a box to enter preset name and preset folder

Note that you cannot overwrite a factory preset. If you press SAVE on a factory preset, the SAVE AS box will open where you can create a new user preset.

For more details please read the User Manual HERE.
