Novation SBR-1 SuperBassStation is Now Shipping
September 8, 1997
It's the kick @$$ synth you've been waiting for,
all in a 1U rack mount unit. True Analog Effects! An Arpeggiator w/303
patterns, syncable to MIDI clock! 200 great sounds including everything
from leads to drums to sound effects to EARTH SHAKING SUB OSCILLATOR BASSES!!! 2 LFO's syncable to each other and to MIDI Clock. Cool blinking red
lights!!! Stereo Outputs!! Self triggering Input to the Filter Section!!
FUTURE MUSIC MAGAZINE says, " all the hands-on synth power you could
wish for in a 1U-unit" & "Super by name, Super by Nature." They even
liked it so bloody much that they gave it their coveted PLATINUM AWARD.
(Those chaps can say that about us anytime...)
SOUND ON SOUND MAGAZINE says, "looks good, feels right, sounds great
and is brilliant fun to work with" & "The arpeggiator section is possibly
the single most outstanding new addition to the BassStation; it's well
conceived and interesting results are quite easily achieved." (Thanks
boyz, we love you too.)
"THE MIX" Magazine says, " Powerful and versatile sonic capability" &
"Plenty of Programmability" & "a versatile and adventurous module with a
satisfying analogue sound, and it should take up residence in many a studio
rack where creative sound synthesis is considered important." They gave it
an "Editors Choice" award. (jeez, now we-re blushing...)

synth technology, and we've appended a partial specification to the end of
this letter for you tech heads. More information is available at the Novation web site (www.novationusa.com), which has been recently updated for your viewing pleasure.
