    i thought i got that behind me : synth bass and amp's but it came to my mind to ask in forum...

    i always was searching for grid but found fatness , overdrive and saturation or something:mad:

    orange amp in ik multimedia i liked but not enough..but maybe i should have used more grainy crushed and of course designed stuff...didnt used it as last polishing effect..

    You mean an appropriate but separated amp for synth bass?
    I remember @No Avenger passing me a couple of very good highly distorted presets for the FabFilter Synth, but those are for the synth alone.
    I'm sure others can help you much more than me. Also, for synths IDK if amps designed for bass guitars are the better choice. There're tons of distortion plugins but, again, not my area of expertise.

    Try the Sansamp PSA. It is an analog guitar amp and Bassamp emulator from the 90s.
    I have the Hardware version. I mainly use it as a Preamp since I got the Nembrini PSA vst emulation for mixing. Really a great emulation.
    I really love the sansamp psa to distort, saturate, make it fat or destroy any kind of signal. Or simply use it as an amp emulation From guitar to bass to voice and synth. I use it really on everything. I always got it on my Bass(synth)

    No matter what sort of bass program or real bass I am using, I split it and run a signal to an Ampeg SVT. An Ampeg gives all basses more punch, (and, of course, it changes the sound) not just bass guitars. Record everything and you can tinker with either one or both together.
    :drummer::grooves: and plug in's like Low Air are a hoot.

    I use an AMT SS-20 for everything. Tube preamp with three channels (clean/crunch/lead). Pair it with an impulse of your choice and a poweramp simulator (if you wish) and enjoy.

    I have lot's of fairly expensive gear, but that's out of my budget, too. I got a deal on mine used. From the 80's. The head is solid state SVT-200T...It's the 8 ten inch speakers in the cabinet that give you all those transients and punch. I have never heard a software model version to be able to say if that works the same.:bow: Money is overrated, except to buy more gear...lol.

    After I heard the Acapulco Pedal I saw in the video from your post
    https://audiosex.pro/threads/sylvia-massy-studio-divine.50439/#post-428933

    I felt in love with this sound so I have ordered a DIY clone.A guy from another forum recommended me a website,
    https://www.musikding.de/The-Acapulco-Overdrive-kit

    I have also ordered a MXR Distortion+ clone.2 pedals for less than €70!You can get them for less than €30/pedal if you drill the enclosure yourself!

    These kits are cool because you don't need anything else,you don't need to search electronic parts or anything else.

    I'll tell you how good they are later, when I'll receive them.

    Or try iZotope Trash2,you can get really nasty sounds,it has some very aggressive algorithms and it has a convolver section too with plenty of Impulse responses,such as amps or more creative,experimental ones.
    I love this plugin.Very useful.
