GForce Novation Bass Station: Factory Presets & Demos

January 21, 2025

I’m excited to share that I contributed 20 factory presets to GForce’s Novation Bass Station plugin, a modern software version of the classic ‘90s monosynth. The original is known for its acid basslines and squelchy resonance, and this updated version pushes things even further with polyphony, expanded modulation, and a new FX section. It’s still got that raw, 303-inspired character, but with a lot more flexibility.

Some of my favourite features are the filter, which sounds fantastic when the resonance is cranked high, and the top-quality onboard effects. The XLFO and XADSR features give most of the synth’s parameters completely independent LFOs and envelopes for deep modulation possibilities.

I also wrote two demo tracks for the release, including Cassette Chorus and the French House-inspired track featured in the official Introducing Novation Bass Station by GForce Software video.
