Dedicated Bass Amp modeller

I'm wondering if there's a standalone Bass Amp modeler that might be better than the bass amps included in programs such as TS4, Guitar Rig 5, etc?

TS4??
With my virtual basses I use Amplitube mostly, favourites are the Fender Bassman 300 and the Orange AD 200 both of which I use a lot more than the ones in the older Ampeg SVX collection. Of course things may be different with a real bass.
 
You may want to investigate Mark Studio 2 from Overloud. No idea what its like but it looks intresting http://www.overloud.com/news/ms2-release.php

There is also GK Amplification which is a bass amp sim modeled on Gallien-Krueger bass amps: http://shop.audified.com/products/gk-amplification-2?variant=1032178249  There are several different versions including a free version but the free version has limited features.  If you like GK bass amps, download the demo and see if it is what what you want.

I have Amplitube 4, Mark Studio 2, and GK Amplification 2. I highly recommend any of the three but Mark Studio 2 and GK Pro are my gotos for bass. GK Pro 2 usually ends up the most used.

Overloud Mark Studio is my go-to bass amp.. There are multiple amp and cabinet models as well as built in FX.. Highly recommended!

Peace!

If you're on the UAD platform the two Ampeg plugins are fantastic. And if you have a UAD device you can use them latency free. I do this - I monitor through the plugin but record the dry signal, so I can tweak the plugin later. I have commitment issues. :)

There is a free Sansamp plugin that I've used with an Ampeg 8X10 IR and Klanghelm's MJUC with great results.
I also use IK's Ampeg SVT and Markbass Studio.

Zoom's B3 (hardware pedal) has some nice bass amp models in it.
The Bassman is particularly good.
