Bassment Core: Bass Amp and Cabinet Plugin by United Plugins Free Download

The amp section covers a wide input gain range, from gentle to aggressive, and includes a 5-band EQ intended to suit different playing styles. Bass-specific tools include a dedicated compressor for the low end, a low-pass filter, and Aggression and Presence knobs.

The midrange section offers control over frequency, low-cut, brightness and color, plus a dedicated drive control. The high end has six dedicated controls for drive, color, brightness and corrosion. The cabinet simulation provides 15 cabinet types combined with 15 alterations, for more than 200 models. The developer describes the cabinet as a modeled simulation rather than a standard impulse response set.

An Analyse Input Level button sets the input level automatically. You play the strings at the intended playing strength, and the plugin adjusts gain so the signal sits at the working point of its processors. This helps with gain staging and volume balance across the chain.

The interface is photorealistic and can be resized by dragging the bottom right corner, so you can shrink it to save screen space or enlarge it for easier control. Parallel saturation is available as a separate stage to add extra character to the final bass tone.
