Details

The instrument includes standard shorts and longs, but its strength lies in the vivid patches that showcase timbral developments. Two of the double basses are tuned down an octave, allowing access to unprecedented low notes. Recorded in the acoustically renowned Fartein Valen hall, the library captures the essence of live performance with a natural dynamic range.

Five mic positions—close, MS-stereo, Decca, flank, and hall—provide flexibility in mixing, allowing for intimate or expansive soundscapes. The library features an articulation switcher for easy access to different playing styles, along with random sample-start and round-robin options to enhance realism. The user interface is designed for intuitive control, enabling composers to shape sounds effectively while maintaining a fluid workflow.
