Step into the rich, analog world of sound with AIR Bassline, a powerful monophonic vintage synthesizer that brings the best of classic mono synths with a modern edge. Bassline features an evolved version of AIR's renowned Vacuum Tube Synthesis circuit modeling, first made famous by AIR Vacuum. Known as a reference synth for Avid Pro Tools users, Bassline perfectly captures the crunchy, warm sound of the analog era, delivering incredible features without compromising that superb warmth.

Discover a flexible oscillator with a continuously variable waveshape, including octave saw, saw, square, and sine waveforms, giving you immense sonic versatility. Enhance your timbre with dedicated Sub and Fifth oscillators for thicker, layered sounds. With multiple filters, envelopes, and built-in audio effects, Bassline allows you to dive deep into subtractive synthesis, effortlessly recreating those sought-after analog sounds from the 70s and 80s, but with your own unique modern twist.
