The Abx3 Black Friday deal takes 80% off this bass line synth plugin from Audio Blast, bringing it to $39 until Nov 30, 2026.
Abx-3 started as a modern tribute to the 1980s 303 bass line synthesizer. The maker is clear that it is not a classic 303 clone, though, and says it does a lot more than that.
The interface has been redesigned so you can build sequences in real time and adjust them live. The same layout is meant to work in the studio.
The sound engine starts with 32 oscillator shapes and a sub oscillator you can switch between sine and square. A factory bank of 606 presets gives you acid starting points.
Distortion comes in 8 types. Three FX slots draw from 7 effects:
The step sequencer runs from 16 to 64 steps and holds 32 independent patterns. A pattern browser lets you jump to other patterns and variations quickly.
A separate parameter sequencer has its own speed and parameter control, and effect automation lives in it too. Sequencer speed runs from /4 to x8, with several time divisions.
Two extras help with idea generation: a patch randomizer and random scale selection. Reverse MIDI plays MIDI data backward.
There are 5 GUIs, so you can pick the look that suits how you work.
Abx-3 ships as VST2, VST3, AAX, Audio Unit and Standalone. It is 64-bit and works with Pro Tools 11 and above.
On Mac, it supports macOS 10.13 to 14 and needs an Intel Core i5 or equivalent with 2 GB of RAM. On Windows, it runs on 7, 8, 10 and 11 with the same CPU and RAM spec. Linux is listed as compatible.
An internet connection is required for installation and updates.

No. Audio Blast says Abx-3 began as a modern tribute to the 1980s 303 bass line synthesizer but is not a classic 303. It adds a parameter sequencer, a patch randomizer, reverse MIDI and more.
