Reviews

“It gives the instrument a satisfying “thunk” when you play it, sounding like a real physical instrument instead of a digital synth. Rootbass sounds dirty, raw, and is a joy to play.”

Thorsten Meyer, Strong Mocha

“It oozes character and it can be a timesaver for those producers and beatmakers into ’70s influenced music, hip hop, ‘contaminated’ electronica and all that jazz [...]
pfonic Instruments and Rootbass definitely stand out from all the rest and deserve your attention. You won’t regret it.”
