"Get the Funk Out!" feat. Polybrute, miniKORG
video upload by Jeremy Parker
"So I had so much fun with my first Skweee track that I had to make another... or at least try to make something funky using only analog synths. Most of the sounds are from the Arturia Polybrute, with only the lead/solo voice from my miniKORG 700fs. Drum sounds are from Addictive Drums 2, everything done in Reaper. Enjoy!"
Introducing Novation Bass Station by GForce Software
video upload by GForce Software
"Novation and GForce are proud to announce the release of the GForce Bass Station, a brand-new software version of the original analogue synthesiser.
Bass Station is an iconic mono-synth, celebrated for its raw, punchy bass and distinctive analogue filter. First launched in 1993, it has been a core part of Novation's brand ever since.
The new GForce Bass Station AU / VST is an exact emulation of the original Bass Station, now with a new expanded mode, which includes up to 16-voice polyphony and unison modes, taking its versatility far beyond the monophonic hardware original.
