Substance

Output

Substance is a powerful bass synthesis engine built on three layered sound sources with extensive processing capabilities. It combines heavily processed electric and acoustic sources through sophisticated filtering, effects, and modulation to create earth-shattering low-end sounds. The plugin excels at pushing the boundaries of bass design through its multi-layer architecture and comprehensive effects chain.
