Quick Start

This page will guide you through the few steps to get started with your product.

1. Download & install the Arturia Software Center (ASC)

The Arturia Software Center (aka ASC) lets you activate, install and update your Arturia virtual instruments on your computers.

It will let you access the software you own as well as demos of the other titles in the Arturia catalog.

2. Log into the Arturia Software Center

Enter the same email address and password as for your My Arturia account. You will then be able to find your Product License on the main panel.

If you don’t have a My Arturia account, click on create account and follow the process to create one.

If you're using an offline computer, please follow the process described in this this article

If you have purchased your software license on the Arturia website, it has been automatically registered into your account. Otherwise click on the button “Register a new product” on top of the main window.

3. Install and Activate your product through the ASC

You will be asked to define the destination folders on the first time.

Your product will remain in demo mode until it is activated. To do so click on the “Activate” button. Your brand new effect will now be activated.

You are now able to use it without restriction on up to 5 different computers simultaneously. To do that, repeat this operation on your other computers.

How To's

Tutorials | Pure SUB | How to Make a Wide Reese Bass

Tutorials | Pure SUB | How to Make a Classic House Bass

Follow Joe as he builds a classic house bass by combining a solid sub foundation with the House Starter waveform and focused low-pass filtering. See how subtle SUB Processor drive, multiband compression and EQ add punch, presence and control without compromising the low end.

Tutorials | Pure SUB | How to Make a Heavy Dubstep Wobble

Joe constructs a heavy dubstep wobble from a clean sub foundation, using key-tracked Functions to animate harmonic Morph and filter Drive. Explore how white-noise texture, Rage Diode filtering, Smooth Clip distortion and multiband compression create raw, aggressive movement.

Tutorials | Pure SUB | How to Make a Punchy 808 Bass

See how Joe transforms a clean sub foundation into a modern, punchy 808 using layered pitch transients, subtle harmonics and Corrosion noise. Filter drive, SUB Processor character and tape saturation preserve its physical weight while helping the sound translate across different playback systems.

Tutorials | Pure SUB | How to Make an Evolving DnB Bass

In this walkthrough, Joe creates a deep DnB bass that gradually evolves while maintaining a stable low-end foundation. Amp, Pitch and Mod envelopes combine with Function modulation, filter drive and subtle delay to introduce harmonic movement and controlled atmospheric depth.
