I just bought this synth 2 weeks ago from a pawn shop that was going out of business for $125 USD. I'm a synth enthusiast/collector. I have to say this Novation Bass Station II is a little monster. I knew always that it was great for bass, but it does so much. After seeing this video, it opened my eyes and ears to so many other things it can do. It all of a sudden became one of my favorite synths in my collection. I thank you for this great video.
This guys aknowledgement of BS 2’s ability to effectively emulate classic analog synths for gigs is what convinced me keep mine - & continue exploring its expansive abilities
If someone had told me there was a setting on the Bass Station 2 that allowed me to play Joe Meek's Telstar, (14.17) I would have said they were crazy! Thank you for one of the most impressive reviews of any synth I've seen on TH-cam!
There are even hidden functions only accessible through NRPN functions like the Sub OSC decoupled as a Full third OSC not just detuned . Sub OSC Pulse width is NRPN 0:83 Sub OSC Tune Coarse is NRPN 0:84 Sub OSC Tune Fine is NRPN 0:77 There is even a Saw wave hidden in there , but I don't know what the NRPN for it is . Only discovered this running across a demo of Patch Base running a BSII editor hereon the Tubes . Cheers !
Wow! That's amazing. You've slightly blown my mind there! And there's a saw in there too?! We're talking time to sell the Mini (almost!)... actually, considering the ring mod, it's time to sell the Oddy too! Thank you so much for this insight into this already great little synth!
@@djpopcorn The last update does not allow you to access the hidden functionality of osc 3 as an on-key function. Only the Patch Base editor does this. It will be up to Bass Station users to remind Novation to update the firmware to allow direct access without buying a third-party product.
I keep meaning to buy one of these, I'm always so impressed by how they sound. I too had the original and never really liked it all that much, - maybe that's what keeps putting me off? I know Chris Corner of IAMX loves the BS2, I've seen him using at least 4 at once, live on stage.
I can empathise... I never liked the original either, and I think that colours my impression of the 2, until, that is, I play it, and then i get impressed, and it never lets me down... I'd recommend getting one, and the afx and other updates put it ahead of most budget analog options imo.
Hi BOO! Loving these "Synth of the Month" uploads! They were great first time around as part of your shows but these are fabby for making up a playlist of useful hints and tips! Thank you! Have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy New Year when it comes!
This sounds a lot like our new live setup: BS2; Tangerine; Akai MPKminiplus; Microfreak, CS01. It's all very compact and it seems to do the job! I'm very interested in the Hydrasynth, I hope to be borrowing one for a future SOTM soon.
I have one myself and I'm still discovering and exploring new things. Like you I have printed out the additional manuals and also stuck little labels on for the extra stuff, for speed. Love your live playing stories and humour! Did you know you can feed the headphone out into the external in for more sounds? Lots of fun to be had with the ext in actually. Anyway enjoyed this and liking your music too. Peace PD
Thank you! And that's awesome about the headphone feedback thing, It never even occured to me to do that, even though I do it on mu SH1 all the time. Thank you for the tip, I shall give it a go next time!
As a pro bass player who gigs the BS2 occasionally, I would gladly pay another couple/few hundred more for a BS*3* that did away with the aggravating doubled-up controls and had a 2 1/2 octave keyboard (like the Moog Prodigy or Grandmother) that didn’t also feel crappy. And a rotary data encoder for patch selection (perhaps in addition to the arrows?). (How about an init patch button while at it??…). Novation wouldn’t even need to do a ton of additional development, could just look to their Peak/Summit models. A Bass Peak? (Would that be a trench? Could name it “Mariana”…) Perhaps a hybrid-two analog oscs and one digital (wavetable, etc). Bass Station 3 (third iteration, 3 oscillators). Maybe the forthcoming PWM Mantis will tick many of these boxes.
Also an on/off button for the portamento (like on the Sub37). This has frustrated me live many times. Adjusting the knob on the fly for a specific section or note in a song is always a crap shoot. If you could just preset the glide time SO IT WORKS WITH THE TEMPO OF THE SONG and then just engage/disengage, that would be awesome.
Ha! The Mariana is a great idea... I'll pitch it to my friend at novation when I next see him. I do agree though, the diving can be ofputting, however, recently I've been reviewing some boxes who'se menu stuctures are positively Byzantine in comparison to the BS2, (I'm looking at you 1010music)... It's not a problem if you only have one instrument with button combos and menu journeys to contend with, but once you have a room full of them, it's time to get out the harmonica....
@@alanshewitt Again, genius idea, and as it's coming from you're experience playing the BS live, it's invaluable info for synth designers... I will pass this all on... you never know, they may listen!
Great playing, great demo! This is a HUGELY fun, hands-on, beast of a synth. A desert-island instrument for me (as long as there´s a big-ass speaker, a solar panel and a usb powerbank*). In the 7 years I´ve had it it has even managed to grow into a duophonic, drum-beating, microtonal, cheeky little monster. *yes, it`ll run for weeks off a little usb battery, so you can take it to random places and molest innoccent folk with degenerate blerps and blarps!
I'm looking at buying a hardware synth. This is cool. It sounds great, and it appears that there isn't a lot of Menu diving. The other one I'm looking at, is the Minilogue XD..but it is very Menu heavy, I think. Thanks!
Is it your first hardware synth? The minilogue has at least 4 voices so it might cover more ground to get started, plus it has FX and only slightly more expensive. The first synth I ever tried was a minimoog and I remember being flumoxxed by how much people were expected play to play a single note at a time :_) However, the BSII was my first "real" synth and it still makes me giggle like a kid. I use it on every other project as it covers pretty much any sound imaginable.
@@0601989m thanks! I ended up getting the BS2.. And the elektron digitone..lol! The Novation is a piece of cake, compared to the Digitone. Plus, I got the Arturia Drumbrute Impact, that I also have to learn. Lol!
@@BOOelectric it can’t do parameter locks and great motion sequencer, so you can get the program changes to run a sequence of a crazy amount of sounds, but the filter doesn’t latch, so that I can globally tweak the sequence….it appears to be independent on the BS2 , it sounds more fluid on 4.14 , cheers
I have put some OB6 patches up on our Bandcamp subscription extras, and I've vaguely been thinking of doing it, but I'm not sure if anyone would want it. If I ever get my head round the technicalties I'll have a go. Thanks for the idea!

Great review! please tell me : is the afx thing (i mean the difference of sound per key) straight in the machine or it needs some upload? cause i find it amazing..
It's available on the latest firmware update, you can grab it from the novation website... Its pretty straightforward to install, if I remember rightly.
I have got a Korg Minilogue XD, does this mean I don't really need one of these? It looks lovely tbh, and Paul and Phil Hartnoll say great things about it.
Well I'm not really an expert having only briefly played the XD... Which was, by the way, lovely - especially the user oscillators and fx and stuff... But I don't think you can really compare them, as they're sort of coming from two different places... And the BS2 keeps surprising me (as I'm sure the XD keeps surprising you)... I would pick one up second hand, if I were you, just to see how it fits... But I think it would get on with the XD just fine! Ps, regarding the BS continuing to surprise me, take a look at the comment by DeatByMedia below, I had no idea this was possible with the BS2, and I've owned it for 10 years!
No they didn't do a BS2 rack yet, but I'm pretty sure somebody' some where's chopped off the keyboard! There are rackmount wesions of the first Bass Station and Supernova, and there's also the old drum station from the 90s.
They're quite different synths, but the minifreak has digital oscillator models, some of which can probably do a lot of what the BS2 can, while some can take it off in directions the BS2 couldn't go. However the BS2 is properly analogue, and with AFX mode, can do some complex things (after a bit of work on your part) things the freak can't. I think they'd complement each other very well.
I bought my BS2 many years ago. It suffered a lot of neglect. Only recently, when I finally made myself sit down and try to make a track using _only_ the BS2 did I really start to appreciate and fall in love with it. (A second track I allowed myself to use Tremor for the synth percussion, as I wasn't satisfied with my attempts to make percussion sounds with the BS2, and I also don't use any of the presets, as the main reason for forcing myself to use only it is to learn how to make sounds on it.) My other analog synth is a desktop Mopho that I'm likewise making myself sit down with. (The two tracks I made with it, largely for fun, are th-cam.com/video/b_bCu6XhpK4/w-d-xo.html and th-cam.com/video/CO7Ja5VBCXo/w-d-xo.html)
Nice work, and yes, it's important to spend quality time with an instrument. Sometimes, near the end of the recording of a bunch of tracks, I'll get one synth out, lock everything away, and just explore what comes out with that limitation. Usually it's a surprisingly inspiring thing to do. I think it's easy to expect a synth to hand you everything on a plate and to become a consumer of the sounds rather than a creator... Instruments need two extra things: your imagination and your time. Cheers!
@@BOOelectric ok that is weird, because then I got it wrong from an interview. In the 90s, he said he was going to work with Novation (after BS I) and implement the filter concept of the OSCar. So I assumed that the BassStation II would go in that direction. I have the OSCar and the Wasp and find that the BS II doesn't chirp as much as a Wasp. When the OSCars separation knob is in the middle position it is very close to the VCF of the BS II. Anyway, I'm really looking forward to the Mantis. :-)
I've heard a few people have this after touch problem, I've also heard it's something that can get worse over time. I've never had any complaints, luckily... Yet...
Hi There Again my name is Mr Cannadine T.

Yep, I can hear that! Everybody's... Is a great song, I wonder if anyone's isolated the vocals and pitched down the instruments by an octave or two... That would be pretty huge! I was 10 when I heard this too, and it's one of those songs that kind of floated in on the ether, coming out of radios playing thru windows, like a mist, or just a feeling floating around rather than a song. Ahh... The past...
I’ve had mine for a decade! $250 used maybe a little less with the box even. I need to get it back out. The 25 keys was always an issue. Give me a desktop model any day, though all the function keys would go.
When I first got the BS2 more than ten years ago, I wanted to sync it with a drum machine, but I seem to remember it was a little unreliable, going out of sync etc. I never attempted to use it like that again. I wonder if it's a known issue? If there is a secret, I don't know what it is, sorry. Maybe Novation or Reddit can help? Good luck.
