    DjinnBass 2 interface

    Tone Selector

    Switch between DI, Grit, and Distortion tones. Each one is tuned to stay clear at extremely low tunings.

    Fretboard

    We sampled every fret on all five strings. The interface shows where the engine plays each MIDI note.

    Articulation

    Use keyswitches to switch among 18 articulations. The display shows the active articulation.

    Alternate Picking

    Tempo-synced picking algorithm with deep round robin. No repeated samples, no matter the speed.

    DOOM

    Collapse the round robin for maximum power and consistency. Less variation, more impact.

    Humanize

    Adds adjustable variation between notes so repeated parts sound less mechanical.

    Position

    Choose the fretboard position for each note, or let the engine choose automatically.

    Mixer

    Adjust levels and tone parameters. Open the mixer to dial in exactly the sound you want.

    Settings

    Configure keyswitches, tuning, bend range, and other instrument preferences.

    Playstyle select

    Select pick or finger playing.

    3 potent tones.
    DI to Annihilation.

    Our design ethos behind DjinnBass 2 is to deliver the most crushing bass tones possible without needing to mess around for clarity at extremely low tunings. Dual-sampled with both pick and fingers, it's like having two bass libraries in one.

    DI

    DI

    Pure capture. Shape it your way.

    More

    DI

    The raw Dingwall NG-2, recorded direct through studio-grade hardware. Use it with your own plugins, pedals, or amps.

    Grit

    Grit

    Mid-gain bite that sits under guitars.

    More

    Grit

    The workhorse tone. Analog-modelled saturation through a driven amp stage gives Grit the midrange push to punch through dense arrangements without fighting the guitars.

    Distortion

    Distortion

    More gain and midrange grind.

    More

    Distortion

    Dist adds a second amp stage above Grit, increasing midrange texture for low-tuned metal.

    Sampled with fresh strings for a bright, consistent tone with no wear.

    Engine

    Built for playable bass parts.

    truBass powers every Submission Audio bass with fretboard mapping, round robins, real-time slides, and Humanize.

    truBass Engine

    Velocity layers, round robins, and string-aware playback change how each note responds.

    Dual-Sampled

    DjinnBass 2 includes separate pick and finger samples. Switch playstyle without loading a second instrument.

    truSlides

    Slide between any two notes at any speed. truSlides generates each transition in real time instead of playing a fixed recording.

    I was WAY more impressed with this instrument than I thought I would be! This bass is my new go to / default for when I'm writing and working on new ideas now. The low end is insanely stable and the attention to detail you're able to automate is very intuitive!

    DjinnBass has become a staple of my home recording process. I'm quite spoiled when it comes to bass guitar on Periphery records, given Nolly's awesome bass tone, and DjinnBass is the only bass software I've encountered that comes close to replicating that grindy, snarling quality that meshes so well with the guitar tones we typically go for.

    Great plug in, samples are wicked

    Really pleased with this plugin right out of the box. The DI mode makes the plugin really flexible, and the grit mode is such a go to for heavy tones. My only gripe with the plug in is that it can be a little tinny, and I find the 3rd distortion option to be too much. But hey, that's what it was advertised as so I'm really not mad. Would highly recommend this plugin.

    Bought for demos. Kept for the finished mix.

    Incredible tone. The DI sounds fantastic and the finished tone sounds incredibly believable. I thought this would be more of a "quick demo writing " plugin but I could see this ending up in my finished mixes. The Di tone alone is quite a bit better than what I could capture with my own setup. 100% worth the money.
