GainStation 1
Electric Bass
If an electric bass is directly connected to the HI-Z input, a combi-
nation of clean and tube stages is usually best. In the case of
extreme dynamics, the FET limiter will deliver excellent results
and a tight, punchy bass sound that usually needs no additional
compression.
Keyboards/samplers/drum machines
Electronic sound sources allow you to fully utilize the
GainStation 1‘s potential. The clean stage is excellent for clear,
glassy sounds and pads, and a combination of clean and tube
stages for most other sounds. The more dynamic the material,
the more effectively you can utilize the limiter.
Tube distortions with GainStation 1
The GainStation can be a great creative tool for creating distor-
tion effects for suitable instruments and loops. Try using very
high tube gain settings, so that the 18 dB LED is constantly illu-
minated. Increasing the clean gain will feed more level to the
tube stage, intensifying the tube saturation effect.
Activating the peak limiter will add a different type of distortion
with more overtones. The FET limiter will not add distortion,
but will create „hard limited“ sounds with an extreme loudness
effect.
