Classic Bass Sample Library for NI Kontakt by Ilya Efimov

Ilya Efimov releases Classic Bass, a new sample library for Native Instruments Kontakt that contains emulation of a classic Fender Precision Bass Guitar ’72 samples sounds.

We recorded 12 dynamic layers for each fret of each string with different playing techniques and articulations. The playing techniques in one patch: fingered, slap, palm-mute and additional articulations – allow you to conveniently and quickly edit your midi notation or play in real-time. We have minimized the use keyswitches, making the instrument simple and intuitive to use. A sophisticated algorithm to select strings in real time, automatically selects the natural bass guitar left-hand position on the fretboard. Manual string and position selection are also available.

The library’s repetition keys make it easy to play realistic ostinato bass-lines. FX glissando will allow you to introduce new musical “colors” to your bass guitar parts. Multiple legato types are changed automatically, depending on the first note played. Included, are several Legato modes, Open String mode, Chord Detection mode and X-note mode; for the convenience of composers and arrangers!
