PunkBass is a virtual bass instrument which recalls a simpler time, of summers spent at the skate park with friends, of knee-high cargo shorts and wallet chains, and above all: of catchy pop-punk music played on your dad's guitars. PunkBass is an idyllic embodiment of this classic era in music history, putting the tones of your favourite artists directly at your finger tips.

"PunkBass is by far the best sounding bass instrument available. Not only is it the best sounding, it is the most convincing I've heard to date. I don't know how they did it, but it's incredible. It is a must have for writing, beefing up or replacing bass tracks. Nothing else comes close." -- Beau Burchell (Saosin)

"Punkbass has really impressed me with its instantly classic sound, grit and flexibility as a song-writing tool, especially when you need that punchy P-Bass tone. Hats off to SubMission for creating an iconic and versatile instrument." -- Forrester Savell (Karnivool, Dead Letter Circus)

"PunkBass instantly transfers me back to 2001... except this time my bass tones are punchy and I can afford my car insurance. If you play in genres outside of extreme metal, PunkBass is your go-to for big rock and punk bass tones." -- Ryan 'Fluff' Bruce (Riffs, Beards and Gear)

Yet another amazing virtual bass library from Submission Audio. I have been using Eurobass II for quite some time and I love it. Punk Bass is a very nice addition to Eurobass. The two amp-sim modes in the Punk Bass plugin is a very nice feature that gives you basically anything you'll ever need. A High fuzz, but still pretty metal, and a more mellow distortion for "softer" stuff. And ofcourse you have D.I signal so you can tweak it what ever way you want.
When I fist tried Eurobass, I was sceptic to the "Keyswitch" programming, because on all other plugins its just extremely hard to program what you want without having to spend hours programming, changing sound banks, etc. I have always thought: Why can't it just sound good when I pluck the MIDI notes is. - Both EuroBass and Punk Bass have answered my prayers. Start it up, select the your desired preset, and it sounds amazing. It is also VERY, VERY easy to program the KeySwitch. It's easy to learn, and does not require much effort at all to get the virtual instrument to play what every you want it to play.

Looking forward to more amazing releases from you guys.
