Lowdown

Der Klang des Donners

Der Lowdown Bass Synthesizer erzeugt superfette, wummernde Sounds des legendärsten Basspedal-Synthesizers der je gebaut wurde. Dieses Basspedal-Monster, das in den 70er und 80er Jahren auf unzähligen Prog-Rock- und New-Wave-Tracks zu hören war, kommt jetzt zum ersten Mal auf Ihren Desktop. Von den beiden "Constant-Beat"-Oszillatoren bis hin zum umfangreichen Ladder-Filter hat der DSP-Experte Mark Barton (MRB) jeden Aspekt des Originals mit außergewöhnlicher Genauigkeit nachgebildet. Gehen Sie mit Lowdown in die Vollen!

Get the Lowdown

Outside of a handful of organ-oriented instruments, the original instrument was the first dedicated foot-controlled bass synthesizer, and with its colossal tone, unquestionably the best sounding. It was used by some of the top acts of 70s and 80s, including Rush, Yes, Genesis, U2, and The Police (check out the intro of "Don't Stand So Close To Me" or Phil Collins' "I Don't Care Anymore.")

The original design used a Hz/oct oscillator scaling (as opposed to the more conventional volts/oct oscillator scaling), allowing oscillator detuning amount to remain constant across the keyboard by minimizing the phase cancellation that can happen when two oscillators play simultaneously. Along with a couple of other engineering tricks, this contributes to its beefy sound.

In order to create Cherry Audio's Lowdown, award-winning synth designer and DSP legend Mark Barton carefully analyzed the original's synthesis circuits and precisely recreated them for a massive virtual bass experience like no other.
