Denise Audio has unveiled its latest product, the Bass XXL bass enhancer plugin, compatible with both Windows and Mac operating systems. The plugin employs a unique algorithm to generate additional harmonics above the bass frequencies, capitalizing on a psychoacoustic phenomenon that allows the human brain to perceive sub bass audio based on its harmonics.
The Bass XXL plugin makes it simpler for producers and engineers to achieve a thick and consistent low end that is characteristic of modern mixes, even when using earbuds or small speakers. It is particularly useful for adding presence to weak drum recordings, controlling inconsistent bass performances dynamically, or refining the low end of an entire mix with precision.
Highlights
- Generate complimentary harmonics on and above your selected bass frequency to create an impactful low end, even on earbuds and small speakers.
- Enrich the low end of bass lines, kick drums, toms, drum groups, or your entire stereo mix via an intuitive and clutter-free interface.
- Blend Bass XXL’s harmonics musically into your tracks with a proprietary algorithm that combines the smoothness of analog saturation with digital precision and oversampling, without introducing any phasing issues.
- Manually dial in your target frequency, by root note, or via MIDI control for surgical precision.
- Gain clinical insight into your track’s bass frequencies with a spectrogram zoomed in on just the low end frequencies. Click the magnifying glass icon in the top panel for a visual reference of the full spectrum.
Features
The Bass XXL plugin comes with a variety of features, including:
- Root: Set the frequency from which harmonics are generated, either in hz, as a root-note, or via midi follow.
- Harmonics: Dial in the harmonics and set the saturation intensity. Engage oversampling for the highest sound quality.
- Boost: Mix in the harmonic signal in parallel, without touching the dry signal. Use the Output knob for setting the global volume. Engage Solo to hear just the harmonic signal.
- Pre-Delay: Separate the harmonics from the transient of your dry signal by adding a delay to the generation of harmonics. This helps preserve the original attack of the dry signal.
- Mono: Force the harmonic signal into mono (at 100%) or preserve the dry signal’s stereo image even in the harmonics generated (at 0%).
- Slope: Set how smoothly – or surgically – the harmonic signal is filtered in and out.
- Range: Set the range of the harmonic signal from being contained to the lower frequencies only to expanding into the mid frequencies for a more audible effect.
- View Selector: Switch between a zoomed-in spectrogram showing the low-end only or a view of the full spectrum. (The dry signal is represented by the blue line and the harmonics by the white line).
- Tool Tips: Engage the tooltips for feature descriptions during hover-over.
- Presets: Browse 48 professionally crafted presets (or create and save your own).
The introductory offer for the Bass XXL plugin is available at a 43% discount. Existing owners of Bass XL can upgrade for $25. This offer expires on December 31st.
