CLA Bass Black Friday pricing from Waves takes 69% off this bass plugin, so it comes to $29.99 until Nov 26, 2026.
CLA Bass is a multi-effect plugin built for electric bass and synth bass. It puts six effects behind six faders, so you can dial in a bass sound in seconds.
The maker says it carries the experience of Grammy winner Chris Lord-Alge, whose credits include Foo Fighters, Green Day and Muse.
Waves says the plugin handles everything a bass part might need, whether that is a rumbling low end or a gritty, aggressive snarl. It works on electric or synth bass.
Every one of the six effects was optimised for bass, and each has 3 modes for extra versatility.
The maker lists these as the main features:
The compression step sits at the start of that list for a reason: levelling the low end keeps the notes sustaining evenly before anything else colours them.
On Mac, CLA Bass runs on macOS Monterey 12, Ventura 13, Sonoma 14 and Sequoia 15. Formats there are VST, AU and AAX.
On PC it needs Windows 10 or later, in VST and AAX formats.
If you track bass in the box, the six faders make it quick to move between a clean, sustained low end and something dirtier. The CLA Bass deal is for the single plugin, and you can drop it on a bass track or a bass bus like any other insert.
