Waves Bass Rider
Bass Dynamics Plugin
The Most Reliable Solution for Smooth Bass Lines
Bass is the foundation of most tracks, but mixing bass is a challenge, because low frequencies are hard to reproduce and hear.
Heavy compression is a workaround, but it alters the attack, tone, and sustain.
Automating levels manually can sound better, but it’s tedious and imprecise.
Bass Rider provides consistent bass levels throughout your track, by controlling the bass’s gain automatically to maintain a steady target level.
And because there's no dynamics processing, the sound quality remains pristine.
