Singularity Virtual Bass

Overview

Singularity Virtual Bass is aimed at modern rock and metal creators who want professional, realistic bass lines right at their fingertips—without investing time and money into learning to play bass, recording real instruments, or wrestling with a maze of external plugins. Whether you’re a guitarist producing a full track at home, a composer creating aggressive soundtracks, or a producer stuck with a dull, lifeless bass line that needs a complete overhaul, Singularity offers a streamlined, all-in-one solution.

Unlike many virtual libraries that use decades-old frameworks like Kontakt, Singularity is built from the ground up with cutting-edge sample playback algorithms and advanced AI modelling. At its core is a meticulously sampled Kiesel Precision 5-string with Jazz pickups, ensuring every note carries the nuanced tone and depth of a high-end instrument. That means the moment you load it, you get lifelike fret noises, natural dynamic expression, and carefully sampled articulations that avoid the dreaded “machine-gun” effect. You can seamlessly switch between pick and fingerstyle at any time, so there’s no need to hunt for extra expansions or libraries just to explore different playing techniques.

The integrated amp simulation is a standout feature. Instead of juggling countless plugins or searching for the perfect distortion, Singularity’s built-in engine lets you quickly dial in everything from a classic low-end rumble to crushing modern metal crunch—no extra plugins required. The included presets are mix-ready, so you can get a bold, defined bass presence immediately, or you can tweak the settings to create a signature tone for your music.

Best of all, Singularity removes the usual technical and logistical barriers that can hold back your creative flow. There are no worries about retakes, editing, mic placement, or re-amping. You don’t have to compromise by relying on simple stock bass sounds or one-off sample packs. By combining cutting-edge sampling methods with AI-driven modelling, Singularity delivers the authentic, driving energy your mix demands—with the simplicity of a single, ready-to-use virtual instrument.

If you’re a musician who wants to focus on writing, arranging, and producing top-tier rock or metal music without being distracted by gear limitations, Singularity Virtual Bass has you covered. It’s your ticket to realistic, powerful bass that drops effortlessly into any mix—so you can spend your time on the music itself, rather than endless setup or technical patchwork.

Play With a Pick… Or Fingers!

Singularity gives you total control over your tone, thanks to its many built-in preamps—each modelled after the classic tube heads and modern solid-state designs prized by rock and metal producers. Instead of settling for a single, generic “baked-in” sound, Singularity lets you switch between these carefully crafted modules with just one click, opening up a huge tonal palette. Whether you crave the rounded warmth of a vintage tube circuit for slower grooves or the razor-sharp precision of a more modern preamp for high-speed riffs, you’ll find it ready to use.

What truly sets these preamps apart is the fidelity of the modelling itself. Rather than relying on outdated algorithms, Singularity uses advanced AI and machine learning to capture the distinctive harmonic complexity and breakup characteristics of real units. This approach enables impressively realistic response under varying input levels—digging in produces the same dynamic push and saturation you’d expect from a real tube or transistor circuit. The result? You can dial in everything from a smooth, low-mid thump to a biting, full-spectrum crunch that cuts through any mix.

Because these preamps are baked directly into Singularity’s engine, there’s no need to deal with extra plugins or chain multiple effects together just to achieve a signature sound. With just a few tweaks, you can glide from punchy, modern aggression perfect for down-tuned metal to a rounded, classic weight ideal for more traditional rock lines. It’s this flexibility—and the astonishing realism of the underlying modelling—that makes Singularity’s tone controls one of its defining features.

Unbelievable Tone Control?

Part of what makes Singularity so easy to use is the ability to have total control over your bass tone.

With many of the latest, modern mixing ideas in mind, we’ve baked these techniques directly into the plugin.

For example, you have control over both the low and high mids, allowing you to create the exact voice you want your bass to have.

Normally, you wouldn’t be able to adjust your preamp settings after recording, but with Singularity you can do it any time you want while mixing your song.

Premium Built-In IRs

Finally, part of controlling the sound of your bass is choosing an appropriate speaker that gives you the sound you already want.

We’ve included 5 different impulse responses, appropriately named after the type of sound you’re looking for. Choose the IR that comes closest to your sound, and adjust from there.

Of course, we’ve also given you the option to load your own IR directly into the plugin.

Modern & Classic Distortion

We created two differently voiced preamps: modern and classic.

The “Modern” preamp style was carefully handcrafted, piece by piece, to give you the unmistakable mid-grunt, modern sound you hear from bands like Mastodon, Gojira, The Deftones and Baroness.

The “Classic” style models the legendary SansAmp. If you know Slipknot, Rammstein, Tool, Lamb of God or RUSH, then you know how amazing it sounds. To create the best possible digital replica, we used advances made possible by machine learning to go beyond what traditional coding has been able to achieve.

Whether you want the more modern, mid-guttural sound or the classic slinky tone of the old days—Singularity has you covered.

Alternatively, you can simply turn off distortion and go clean DI and re-amp yourself!

Humanize

One of the most common pitfalls with virtual bass instruments is the same dull, repetitive sound that screams “programmed MIDI”—especially in fast passages or tight riffs. Singularity addresses this directly with its dedicated Humanize function, giving you direct control over subtle timing variations, velocity changes, and other micro-differences that a real bassist naturally produces. Instead of fighting with dozens of automation lanes or complex scripting, you can dial in as much or as little “imperfection” as you need using a single knob.

It may sound like a small detail, but it’s the secret to making your bass lines feel authentic, dynamic, and alive. Whether you’re going for the hyper-precise lockstep of modern metal or a looser, groove-based style, Humanize helps you underst
