Wow! Novation Bass Station by GForce – with FREE sample pack

The original Novation Bass Station, launched in 1993, is celebrated for its raw, punchy and unmistakably analog character. Developed at a time when digital synthesizers dominated, the Bass Station brought analog warmth and edge back into the spotlight, making it a cult favorite among producers.

The Bass Station by GForce has remained true to the original sound – no wonder, it was also developed in direct collaboration with Novation. However, it has been extensively improved and now offers polyphony, unison modes, a powerful modern sequencer and extensive modulation possibilities with the advanced X-LFO and X-ADSR. These updates add unprecedented depth and flexibility to the Bass Station's iconic sound.
