A powerful bass sound from a vacuum tube oscillator source.

An acid bass machine with modulation and distortion effects.

Even in an era where digital electronic instruments can imitate any sound imaginable, including today, people still seek the warm harmonics and distortion produced by analog vacuum tubes. The pure tone of these tubes has a quality that sets them apart from the rest and cannot be captured by a response curve.

Volca nubass is the first analogue synth to feature the new generation vacuum tube Nutube in its oscillator. Vacuum tube plus analogue means the sound is warm, full and rich. The familiar transistor ladder filter, together with overdrive and massive distortion give it the character of a classic bass machine.

An acid bass machine for a new generation, Volca Nubass combines classic sound with the power of modern synthesizer design.
