SUBFORGE — a monophonic sub-bass synth tuned for DnB/dubstep, plus a recorder. Sound engine: main osc (saw/square/triangle/sine) layered with a sub oscillator (-1/-2 octaves), resonant lowpass filter with its own envelope, full ADSR, a tempo-synced wobble LFO (locked to BPM with divisions down to 1/16 triplets — the classic dubstep wobble move) that can target either filter cutoff or pitch, and a drive stage for growl/distortion. 

 

Playing it: tap/click the on-screen keys, or use your computer keyboard (A W S E D F T G Y H U J K O L P ; = the notes, Z/X shift octaves). Glide is built in for that classic reese-bass slide between notes. Recording: hit REC, play your bassline, hit STOP — it'll give you an inline player plus a download link. 

Have a play with the cutoff + wobble depth + BPM division combo — that's where most of the DnB/dubstep character lives.
