SubBoomBass is a dedicated bass synth with presets designed by Rob Papen (and other guest artists) that will supply you with "huge cone-rattling sounds".

Based on the Predator engine, SubBoomBass has been carefully crafted to provide you with the tools to create fresh new bass lines for any musical style. Rob Papen displays his innovative style by combining the 'phat' sounding synth engine with tuned drum percussion samples and rare samples. It is great for Hip Hop and RnB but can also be used for Dubstep, Drum and Bass, Garage, Grime and much more.

Other features include a groove sequencer and two effects slots which can be modulated. SubBoomBass also features an 'Easy Edit' page and the unique 'Quick Browser' system that will allow you to find the sounds you need quickly and easily.

• Adjustable Analogness setting to simulate the instability of vintage analogue synthesizers.
• Demo C2 button to preview sounds.
• Global Tuning.
• Decay/Release Shape. This changes the curvature of the envelope decay and release stages. From exponential to linear to logarithmic.

Overall Pitch modulation section:

• Tempo sync-able global Pitch LFO. You can set the amount and also which wave is used for this LFO.
• Pitch bend with separate settings for up and down pitch-bends.

Sequencer:

• Each step has on/off, Tie, Slide, Tune, Velocity, Free, Osc1 waveform, Osc2 waveform row.
• Tie modes normal and special which allows Slide, Tune, Velocity and Free settings inside a step if that step is set to Tie. Toggle modes 1 and 2 which toggle between normal and special.
• Sequencer Latch which can be controlled by the MIDI sustain pedal.
• You can load, save, copy, paste and clear sequencer, so you can reuse them in different presets.
