TV3 features two oscillators (main and sub) and two selectable waveforms (square and sawtooth). The signal is fed into a 24dB/oct low-pass resonant, non-self oscillating filter, with cutoff and resonance controls.
Users also get an envelope section, and 4 unique distortion modes: Saturation, Saturated Wavefolding, Fuzz and Nock, along with an inbuilt high-pass filter.
Featuring a minimal set of parameters, the plugin offers a simplified control set, with an Advanced Panel for those seeking deeper control.
Notably, TV3 features a Pattern Generator, making bassline creation not only effortless but also fun. Simply click on the generate button to instantly produce an original pattern and explore unlimited sequences.
You can adjust the complexity, length, scale (21 to choose from) and key of your sequences, and export generated patterns as MIDI files directly from the plugin interface into your DAW for immediate use. Alternatively, you can drag the MIDI file to your computer’s desktop or file system, allowing you to assemble your own bassline MIDI pack in a flash.
Feel free to save patches in the plugin and recall them anytime as well. There’s also a bunch of built-in classic acid basslines for you to get creative.
TV3 is available for Windows and macOS in VST, VST3 and AU plugin formats. The plugin will return to its original price of $19 after the promotion.
