Arturia Pure SUB - Bass Design Synthesizer

A synthesizer built for one thing: deep, punchy, characterful bass.

Shape the fundamental, harmonics and texture in dedicated stages, then let the Sub Processor turn a raw tone into finished low end in a few moves.

With the rise of sound design as a craft, a sound once felt and forgotten is now designed with the care once reserved for the lead. Pure Sub is a synthesizer built for that one job.

WEIGHT - Build the foundation

Pure Sub splits the sound into three dedicated stages — sub, harmonics and texture — each shaped on its own. Control the fundamental independently from its harmonics, morph timbre through a dual-mode engine built for everything from clean 808s to wide Reese, then blend in noise and texture so the bass cuts through on any system.  Great sub design is no longer a dark art.

IMPACT - Make it growl

Turn a heavyweight core into hard-hitting impact. Reshape harmonics through 40+ filter modes, then drive the timbre with the Sub Processor — a bass-focused chain of expert-built modes that distort, texturise and transform in a few moves.  Finish in the FX rack and push the Maximiser for pumping, controlled loudness..

MOTION - Animate every layer

A drop-defining bass should never stand still. With three envelopes, six customisable modulators and full keyboard expressivity including MPE, animate any parameter, layer samples and noise, and modulate the modulators themselves. Shape evolving basses that are unmistakably your own
