Product Overview

Evolution Vintage Violin Bass captures the distinctive sound of a short scale, violin-shaped electric bass, known for its snappy attack and mellow sustain. This library is designed to deliver the low-frequency content essential for foundational bass lines, while also providing a rich sustain that lends itself to melodic playing.

Details

The library features both picked and fingerstyle articulations, including open and partially muted variations. It offers a range of expressive options such as sustains, palm mutes, and natural harmonics, all recorded with attention to detail. The instrument's neck and bridge pickups are recorded separately, allowing for a blend that enhances tonal flexibility—warmth from the neck pickup and brightness from the bridge pickup.

Built on the Evolution engine, the library includes a powerful mapping system for triggering articulations based on various conditions, alongside a comprehensive effects engine for refining the bass tone. With three dynamics and four round-robins for each articulation, the library ensures a nuanced performance. Additionally, it includes MIDI articulations for instant octaves, slides, and other performance effects, enhancing playability and expressiveness.
