Description: Realistic sampled bass guitar, namely an old Hofner Bass (also known as Violin Bass). This is the bass that Paul McCartney has played all his life. The instrument was sampled without amps or cabinets. 4 positions of articulation (Key-switches): muted (Paul played in most of his songs), sustain, glissando up, glissando down. 4 dynamic layers, 2 round robins.
We sampled a Hofner Bass for NI Kontakt (also known as Violin Bass). This is the bass that Paul Mccartney has played through all his life. When you play it you get instant beatlesque sound. We recorded 4 velocity layers and 2 round robins, and added a velocity crossfade to gain realism.
This instrument was recorded with a pick, without passing through any amp or cabinet (Direct Input DI) and premium converters.
There are 4 articulations selectable by Key-switches:
• Muted (Paul played muted in a lot of songs).
• Sustain.
• Glissando UP.
• Glissando DOWN.
You also get fret noises, pick noises, pluck noises and release notes. With our custom GUI (rendered in 3D) you can control the overall volume, the release volume, the pluck volume and we added a cabinet simulator with a switch to turn it on or turn it off.
