Devious Machines – Bass Focus v1.0.4 for WiN

Bass Focus is an advanced low-frequency amplifier for mixing and mastering.

With Bass Focus, your bass will sound fuller, louder, and more powerful without losing its original character and uniqueness. On smaller speakers, Bass Focus reveals otherwise lost low frequencies, ensuring your music will sound great everywhere.

Possibilities

Bass Focus is a low-frequency enhancer for mixing and mastering. It makes bass richer, louder, and more powerful on any speaker system without sacrificing headroom. And on smaller speakers, it reveals low frequencies that would otherwise be lost. This ensures your music sounds its best, even on mobile phones and portable devices.

The plugin can be used as a channel insert to boost the sound of individual instruments, or applied to the entire mix. It can add punch to 808s, thicken drums, enhance synths and bass guitars, and much more.

At the mastering stage, it can be used to improve the delivery and richness of a mix, boost low frequencies, or restore headroom in mixes with too many subtones.

How it works

Bass Focus generates harmonics that are higher in frequency than the original bass but are perceived as part of the same sound. This makes the original low-frequency sound louder, enhancing its presence and power. This psychoacoustic effect works even when the original frequency is inaudible, such as when listening through small speakers.

Control Your Tone

The unique Bass Focus algorithm doesn’t simply saturate the signal; it generates clean, controlled harmonics independent of the input signal level. It allows precise adjustment of the processed frequencies, the balance of even and odd harmonics, and the richness of the generated spectrum. Three output faders allow independent adjustment of the clean, harmonic, and high-frequency signals, and a convenient spectrum display provides visual feedback.
