Waves releases Bass Rider

Waves has released Bass Rider, an easy-to-use plug-in that rides bass levels automatically. A companion to the popular Vocal Rider plug-in, Bass Rider delivers perfect bass levels, without changing the natural sound of your bass. Optimized especially for the frequency range and envelope characteristics of bass instruments, Bass Rider covers all the basses: DI, amplified, acoustic, synth, upright—you name it.

A real time saver with dedicated studio and live components, Bass Rider keeps bass levels in check and solid throughout your mix. Unlike a compressor, Bass Rider works note by note, without disturbing their inner dynamics, so they sustain and decay naturally. Best of all, since Bass Rider keeps your levels steady with automatic gain adjustment, now you can focus on the feel and flow of your bass—and use compression to add color and character.

Features:

• Rides bass levels automatically.
• Optimized for bass instruments.
• Retains the natural character of the bass.
• Dedicated studio and live components.
• Up to 24-bit 192kHz resolution.
• Mono and Stereo components.
• Supports TDM, RTAS, Audio Suite, VST, AU.
• Supports Win & Mac.
