🔊 Three Powerful Sound Layers – Complete Bass Design Control

Arturia Pure SUB features a specialized three-layer architecture that gives producers control over the core elements of bass synthesis.

🎵 1. Sub Engine – Build a Powerful Low-End Foundation

The dedicated Sub Engine generates the fundamental low frequencies that give bass sounds their physical weight and impact.

Adjust the pitch, phase, octave, and level independently to establish a solid bass foundation.

The innovative Sub Regen feature restores a clean fundamental frequency after processing, helping maintain low-end stability while allowing aggressive distortion and effects on the remaining signal.

Perfect for: Deep 808s, clean sub bass, heavy kick-bass combinations, and club-ready low frequencies.

🎹 2. Harmonics Engine – Add Character, Punch & Width

Transform basic bass tones into rich, expressive sounds using two dedicated harmonic modes.

Pressure Mode produces focused, controlled harmonic tones with custom waveform-shaping capabilities.

Reese Mode creates wide, dense, detuned bass textures ideal for aggressive electronic music and moving low-end soundscapes.

Shape the harmonic content to create everything from warm analog-style bass to powerful, distorted, futuristic synth bass.

🌌 3. Texture Engine – Add Grit, Energy & Movement

Take your bass sounds beyond traditional synthesis with the versatile Texture Engine.

Explore Noise Sample and Corroder modes, combining noise, oscillators, and advanced processing techniques to introduce unique tonal characteristics.

Use Ring Modulation, Amplitude Modulation, and Distortion to add grit, metallic detail, movement, and presence.

Create signature bass textures that remain distinctive even in dense productions.

🎛️ 40+ Creative Filter Modes – Sculpt Your Signature Bass

Arturia Pure SUB includes more than 40 filter modes for precise tonal control and expressive sound shaping.

From smooth frequency adjustments to aggressive spectral transformations, its versatile filtering system lets you customize your bass with remarkable flexibility.

• 🎚️ Clean Filtering – Create smooth, controlled bass tones.

• 🔥 Driven Filtering – Add color, grit, and aggressive harmonic character.

• 🌊 Dynamic Tonal Shaping – Create expressive movement and evolving frequency textures.

• 🎛️ Independent Layer Routing – Apply filtering selectively to Sub, Harmonics, or Texture.

Design anything from warm, subtle low frequencies to heavily processed, high-energy electronic bass.

🔥 33-Mode Sub Processor – Transform Your Sound Instantly

Bring incredible power and character to your bass with Pure SUB's specialized Sub Processor.

Featuring 33 processing modes, this creative engine lets you reshape harmonics, introduce distortion, and transform simple waveforms into complex bass sounds.

Experiment with aggressive tonal changes, unusual textures, and distinctive sonic variations.

Ideal for:

• Heavy distorted basslines

• Aggressive Dubstep bass

Shape and enhance your bass using effects for distortion, equalization, dynamics, and creative sound transformation.

The integrated Maximiser offers two processing styles:

🎧 Soft Mode: Designed for smoother, more transparent loudness enhancement.

🔥 Hard Mode: Delivers more aggressive clipping characteristics and increased sonic intensity.

Achieve powerful, polished bass sounds with an integrated sound-design and mixing workflow.
