Find, save and reset a Lava bass sound

Click the sound name to choose Init or one of the seven factory sounds, then adjust and save your own. A dot shows the sound has been edited. Double-clicking the volcano resets it to that sound’s own Lava value, which isn’t always zero.

Factory sounds like Warm 808 and Small Speaker Bass are starting points for common jobs. Judge them on your own bass part.

Step by step

  1. Pick a starting sound

    Use the arrows or click the sound name. Try a few while the same bass phrase plays.

  2. Make it yours

    Change what your part needs. The edited dot shows you’ve moved away from the saved sound.

  3. Save it

    Choose Save in the sound menu and give it a clear name. Load it any time.

  4. Reset the right thing

    Double-click the volcano to return to this sound’s Lava value. Use Reset in the menu or load another sound for a bigger reset. Undo reverses the last edit.

Good to know

Sounds are settings, not samples

Lava shapes the audio coming in. Loading Warm 808 doesn’t add an 808 sample.

Check which version is active

Look at the sound name and the A/B slot before you save or reset.
