KORG VOLCA NUBASS
Even today, when technology allows electronic musicians to simulate any sound imaginable, audiences seek the heat and distortion of vacuum tubes. This distinctive sound has a quality that goes beyond words and that sets it apart from the rest, and one cannot be reproduced by a response curve: it is unmistakably the sound of the tube.
The volca nubass is the first analog synthesizer equipped with a new generation Nutube valve in its oscillator. More analog vacuum valve translates to a warm, thick and rich sound. The familiar scaled filter offers the character of classic bass machines, along with overdrive and massive distortion.
An acid bass machine for a new generation combines classic sound with the power of modern synth design. It is the volca nubass.
The Nutube contains two triodes, one is used in the oscillator to generate a sawtooth or square waveform. The other is used in the Drive circuit of the sub oscillator, adding depth and warmth an octave below the oscillator. This oscillator and sub oscillator offer a circuit structure that delivers the harmonic character that only a real tube can offer.
