Description: The Evolution Flatwound Bass is a classic electric P-style bass featuring flatwound strings for deep, rich tone.
We developed the library in collaboration with Rosewood Recording Company, one of the most venerable recording studios in Utah. Guy Randle, owner and recording engineer at Rosewood Recording Company, used analog audio equipment to skillfully shape and highlight the rich tonal qualities of the bass available as an extended signal provided in addition to the post-recording signal.
Guy Randle brought in veteran bassist Rob Honey for sampling. As a session player, Rob Honey has appeared on a large number of CDs, film soundtracks, and television commercials and programs. He has toured with The Donny and Marie Show and is the bassist for the band Enoch Train. Rob is also an accomplished arranger and songwriter. He was a staff songwriter at Starstruck Writer Group, Reba McEntire’s publishing company. He has had songs recorded by Diamond Rio, Faith Hill and many artists in the LDS market. His song “Norma Jean Riley” became a number one hit and Radio & Record’s country song of the year.
Evolution Flatwound Bass is powered by our Evolution guitar engine, which gives you a variety of options: a custom mapping system, customization of the instrument’s tone and playability, and a powerful suite of effects. The library includes a variety of ready-to-use factory presets for classic and modern bass tones that fit right into the mix.
Key Features:
– Built-in effects engine for instantly-usable bass tones.
– Adjustable pick position using our proprietary physical modeling technology.
– Powerful mapping system that lets you set how you want to trigger articulations, using conditions such as velocity ranges, MIDI CCs, latching and non-latching keyswitches, and more.
Sampling specifications:
– 6.3 GB (compressed to 2.8 GB using the lossless NCW audio format) of 24-bit samples.
– Articulations such as sustains, palm mutes, mutes, and natural harmonics in fingerstyle and picked playing styles as well as slapping, popping, and performance effects like string slaps, slides, and much more.
