01Overview

Fuzzy Waves is a preset expansion for The Sub, the bass instrument from Iceberg Audio. Its presets are built around sub-frequency sounds that add harmonic fuzz, so the bass keeps a defined presence at higher frequencies where pure sub tones tend to disappear on small speakers and in dense mixes. The expansion is loaded into the full version of The Sub, and the presets are named after heavy machinery and tools, which gives a quick hint of their character. Each preset is ready to play and can be shaped further with The Sub's own controls.

03In depth

Sound and Character of the Fuzzy Sub Bass Presets

Iceberg Audio describes these presets as subs with fuzzy harmonics that cut through the mix at higher frequencies. The idea is to keep the low-end foundation of a sub bass while adding overtones that make the note easier to hear on systems that cannot reproduce deep fundamentals well.

The thirteen presets cover a range of textures under names such as Bulldozer, Jackhammer, Turbine and Welder, so you can audition the set quickly to find the amount of grit that suits your track.

Preset List and Use in Your Workflow

The expansion includes Auger, Bulldozer, Caterpillar, Compactor, Digger, Drill, Excavator, Harvester, Jackhammer, Pickaxe, Scraper, Turbine and Welder. Each one is a starting point for bass lines that need to sit clearly under a mix.

Because the presets require The Sub, they fit into a bass-focused workflow inside that instrument. Load one, play your part, and adjust the sound to match the key and arrangement of your track.
