Koma is an analogue bassline inspired by synths from the 1980s.
It offers the possibility to mix 4 different waveforms (saw, square, sub, noise). The 24 dB low-pass filter is also inspired from classical filters from the 80s.
The company says they’ve added modern controls and parameters saving features. The 16 steps sequencer has 4 rows: 1 for the notes and 3 assignable to a parameter designed to enable the creation of living sequences with sonorities like Vince Clark or Yann Hammer, according to Koma.
