About the Novation Bass Station II

The Bass Station II's dual analog oscillators support hard sync, a technique that locks one oscillator's cycle to another's for harmonically rich, aggressive tones especially prized in basslines and leads - a feature not universal on entry-level monosynths but central to the instrument's design purpose. Its switchable filter types, including acid-friendly resonant options, let a player dial in everything from smooth sub-bass to the screaming resonant sweeps associated with classic acid house.

As a direct continuation of the original Bass Station's reputation for punchy, bass-focused analog sound, the Mark II updated the concept with a fully analog signal path, patch storage, and modern connectivity while keeping the same specialized focus - a synth built to do one thing (aggressive monophonic bass and lead sounds) exceptionally well rather than covering every sonic possibility.
