Bassynth Black Friday Deal 2026: $32, 83% off

Bassynth by Wave Alchemy gets a Black Friday deal of 83% off, bringing this bass-focused synth plugin to $32 until Nov 15, 2026.

It runs on a 4-Layer Voice Engine built around an 11GB sound library, and the maker says the goal is new bass sounds rather than emulation.

What is Bassynth?

Bassynth is a Kontakt-powered instrument that layers analogue mono synths, modular bass, oscillators and wavetables with processed bass guitars, live brass, low winds and strings.

The library also holds tortured percussion and mallets, 808s and subs, Foley, noise and transients. Wave Alchemy puts the count at over 800 multi-sampled sound sources.

You can blend any 4 sources in one patch, for example a brass ensemble with an 808 sub, a modular synth and vinyl noise.

What is inside the sound engine?

• 4 layers, each with its own filters, unison, envelopes, tone-shaping, modulation and FX per voice
• Over 290 playable presets, with tag-based browsing and favourites
• A wavetable engine with over 200 scannable wavetables and 14 warp modes
• Unison of up to 8 voices per layer, with detune, stereo spread and wet/dry control
• Mono, legato and poly voice modes with glide
• Analog Slop controls, which add the random drift of analogue gear, per voice

Up to 8 round robins are available per sound source.

How do the macros, modulation and motion work?

The XY Pad morphs up to 64 parameters at once from a single move. Drag and drop parameters onto any of the 8 Macro Sliders, and each Macro can be driven from the UI, a MIDI controller or host automation.

Modulation comes from 3 ADSR envelopes and 4 LFOs, plus velocity, key-tracking, aftertouch and pitch-bend.

The Motion Designer is a polyrhythmic sequencer for the Macros, with 32 steps and 36 preset patterns. Each lane gets its own length, rate and smoothing, and you can randomise a lane or draw in the modulation by hand.

What effects does it include?

There are 40 effect algorithms to load into the slots: EQ and filters, 4 algorithmic reverbs plus impulse responses, 6 delay types with 3 modes, 6 distortion and saturation types, transient shaping, compression, amp simulation, chorus, phasing and flanging.

Each voice has 6 insert slots, and the master section has 6 more alongside 2 sends. Drag effects into any order to build the bass chain you want.

A dedicated mixer gives each voice its own volume, pan, effect sends and stereo width.
