PLUCKS

The patches in this banks has a bit more attack or a punchy character. They are all dialled in with the optional randomiser scripts, so that each note will hear a tiny-bit different than the previous notes. 

SINUS BASED BASS

Sinus wave based bass is based on a pure and simple waveform with less harmonics, which results in a clean and clear sound that can be used for a variety of musical styles.

Sinus wave bass sounds tend to have a more mellow and subdued quality, with less aggression and more focus on the fundamental pitch. The sound can be further shaped with filters and other effects to add movement and texture, but the core tone remains smooth and stable.

In terms of musical applications, sinus wave bass sounds are often used in more laid-back genres such as jazz, soul, and ambient music, where a subtle and supportive bassline is needed. They can also be used in electronic music, but often in a more subdued and understated way compared to sawtooth wave bass sounds. These kind of a smoother and more rounded tone-sounds are great to blend with other instruments, even other bass, to make them sound fuller.

SHORT AND SNAPPY

A bank of bass instruments with short notes, plucks, and staccatos. Ideal for creating infectious grooves and rhythmic patterns. The short, snappy nature of the sounds allows for a percussive quality that can help drive a track forward and create a sense of momentum. The plucks and staccatos give each note a defined beginning and end, making them perfect for quick and repeated patterns. These types of bass instruments are especially useful in genres where a strong and consistent beat is essential. Can forexample be used to blend bassdrums, or to create more transient beats.

Short notes can be created from all the other banks also, by adjusting the ADSR controls.

WARPED / OVERDRIVEN:

Instruments in this bank are great for adding a rough and aggressive edge to any musical composition. These unapologetic sounds are characterized by their gritty, warped, and distorted tonal quality. They are often used in heavy electronic music genres like dubstep, drum and bass, and industrial, but can also be used in rock, metal, and other aggressive styles of filmmusic and momentums. They can be used to create tension and excitement in build-ups, add weight to the drop sections, or to add energy.

“Krutt” means gunpowder in Norwegian. 

SAWTOOTH BASED

Sawtooth waveforms has a more distinctive nature and richer edgier characteristics, and can provide a wide range of overtones and create a full, thick sound that’s ideal for bass instruments. The harmonics of the waveform can be accentuated or suppressed to create a range of different tones, from bright and buzzy to deep and rumbling.
