Soniccouture Abstrakt Bass KONTAKT DVDR-DYNAMiCS | 1.81GB
This is a pretty slick collection, and the best of the four packages that I have, IMO. The first section is programmed patches that use a lot of Kontakt built-in effects and what-not. The second section is the largest, and contains more-or-less straight-from-the-synth bass patches, and the third section has actual basses (the kind with strings.) Bass sounds are bass sounds, and there’s only so much wiggle room you have. But that said, the person that made this library knows how to program synths to get modern, useful sounds out of them. As I was stepping through the programs, I could imagine almost every sound being useful in some context. The electro-acoustic section is fairly cool; each sample has three "layers:" a DI layer, a close mic layer, and a room mic layer, and you can blend them with the included script in a simple manner. Very good collection.
Complete Bass Solution for your DAW
A One-Stop Bass shop – Electrics, Upright, Drones, Dub basses, dry snappy synths, massive snarling filter sweeps, evil distorted groans and moans – all in one package. Every type of Bass sound is covered in the Library, making it incredibly simple to load up the exact bass you need in seconds – or scroll through instruments to try out lots of different basses in your track.
Full Sampling and Synthesis Control:
Each of the 140 Kontakt instruments offers a huge range of control over the sound. Each instrument is a mini-synthesiser in itself! 8 control knobs are instantly accessible in the rack view of Kontakt, allowing you to simply tweak the attack time or filter cutoff, or to completely re-shape the entire sound – it’s up to you.
Huge Range of Bass Timbres
Soniccouture have put their expert sampling skills to work recording detailed multi-sampled 24-bit waveforms from a vast array of classic Bass instruments. This gives Abstrakt Bass a unique sonic breadth unobtainable from any conventional synth – from fat vintage analogue waveforms, complex, heavy FM synthesis, Studio-recorded Electric Bass Guitars and amps right through to completely new creations from the cutting edge of sound design.
VARI-AMP Sampling
The Electric Bass Guitars included in Abstrakt : Bass feature a unique edge – the ability to mix the original amp and D.I. signals to suit your track. Each note of the guitar is represented by 3 24-bit samples: D.I., Close Mic ( AKG D112 ) and Distant Mic ( Rode K2 ). This gives you complete control over the natural studio sound of the bass and the amp.
Categorised For Ease of Use
