Submarine

Add bigger, deeper subs to your tracks

Take a Deep Dive into the Low Frequencies

Deeper bass, bigger kicks, floor-shaking dance mixes, large-than-life sound design—Submarine packs a subharmonic punch you can’t obtain any other way. Waves’ Organic ReSynthesis process isolates the existing low frequencies, then generates subharmonics one and two octaves below.

Best of all, because the process isn’t EQ-based, the sound is crystal-clear—even on large sound systems—without the muddiness, artifacts, or rumble of traditional subharmonic generators.

Add subs to individual tracks, buses, or final masters
Build the ideal bass foundation for hip hop and club music
Add subharmonics over a broad or narrow frequency range
Mix in with tracks, or send to a low-frequency effects (LFE) bus
Organic ReSynthesis guarantees no-compromise sound quality
Drive adds even harmonics, Dynamics controls compression

Add Clean, Clear Subharmonics Without Muddiness

Go Deep—But Go Clean
Submarine goes deep—not just 1 octave, but up to 2 octaves below your original sound. The artifact-free sound comes from Submarine extracting the pitch, formant, and envelope from the audio, and processing only that—not other frequencies that would otherwise muddy the sound.
Feed Your Low-Frequency Effects Bus
From super-realistic sound effects to club-friendly subwoofers, Submarine can pump floor-shaking bass into your LFE bus—without the blurred sound you’d have from EQ. You can even choose mono LFE for extra punch.
Powered by Tone
Choose a wide, or narrow, range of audio for processing—from a kick drum’s thump, to the full bass range. Then, vary Dynamics for a tighter or looser sound, and tweak Drive to glue the suboctaves into the mix.
