Hear what it can do.
Built for bass. But not just for bass.
Each layer has 2 blendable wavetables and a resampler. Stack up to 16 voices, then cross-mod them with phase, FM, ring, sync, morph and nine warps. Add a sub with drive and five colours of noise or your own samples.

Questions
More in the Mainframe manual, or get in touch.
What do I need to run it?
A DAW that loads VST3 or AU, or use the standalone app. macOS 11 or later (Intel and Apple Silicon), or Windows 10 or later, 64-bit.
Can I use my own samples?
Yes. Load a sample into either layer, tune it and loop it. You can also turn a short recording into a wavetable.
Does it support MPE?
Yes. Turn MPE on in About and each note bends on its own. Pressure, Slide and Bend show up as modulation sources.
Is it heavy on CPU?
You choose. Oversampling goes 1x, 2x or 4x, and fewer unison voices and effects keep it light.
