PunkBass is a virtual bass instrument which recalls a simpler time, of summers spent at the skate park with friends, of knee-high cargo shorts and wallet chains, and above all: of catchy pop-punk music played on your dad's guitars. PunkBass is an idyllic embodiment of this classic era in music history, putting the tones of your favourite artists directly at your finger tips.

THREE UNIQUE TONES. ONE MAJOR DOSE OF NOSTALGIA.

DI (RAW)

Directly from the instrument, captured with meticulous attention to detail, using the finest recording gear available. You're the sculptor and this is your clay. The sky is the limit, and this tone can be whatever you desire.

PRE-PROCESSED TONE #1: LOW GAIN

FIRST BASS

A throwback to the popular P-bass tones of the 90s and 00s. Lightly driven to bring out articulation, fret clank and string noise. Sits beautifully among rhythm guitars.

PRE-PROCESSED TONE #2: HIGH GAIN

TEEN FUZZ

Something a little more edgy. High-end analogue distortion, dialed up for a grimy, in-your-face fuzz sound that will fit right into even the densest wall of guitars.

ADVANCED HUMANIZATION

TEMPO SYNC

Our alternate picking algorithm automatically detects the tempo of your project and reacts to any tempo changes. Simply set the note value you want to engage alternate picking and go! Your selection will be displayed, along with the automatically-detected tempo of your project, and resulting millisecond value of the alternate picking threshold.

ARTICULATIONS

There are 8 fully automatable playing styles. With direct access to hammer-ons, slides, mutes, handling noises and more, you can command the performance to follow your guitars perfectly.
