REQ: Colossal Bass Full Bundle

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

Colossal Bass I
Colossal Bass I marks the beginning of Colossal Bass Instruments. It features a Warwick Corvette Standard 5-String bass with active MEC J/J pickups, tracked using D'Addario Pro Steels that deliver a crystal clear top end while still retaining plenty of power and punch. Each note was multi-sampled for both up and down picks. Pair that with our Intelligent Alternate Picking algorithm, and you've got a MIDI bass instrument that sounds like the real deal.

Colossal Bass II
Colossal Bass II features a Music Man StingRay Stealth 4 HH, and is our most realistic sounding MIDI bass instrument yet. It was sampled using D'Addario Pro Steels which deliver a crystal clear top end while still retaining plenty of power and punch. One of the new features for Colossal Bass II is our velocity humanization algorithm. This works in realtime by randomizing the MIDI velocity for each note +- the value given by the user (1 - 30). Also new for CB2 are multi-sampled, speed-adjustable slides.

As with Colossal Bass I, each note was multi-sampled for both up and down picks, which works alongside our intelligent alternate picking algorithm to produce an extremely realistic sounding MIDI bass instrument. You'll have to hear it to believe it!

Colossal Bass I & II include (3) pre-processed tones, along with the DI. After your purchase, you will receive a download containing all 4 NKI's for both instruments, along with the samples library for each.

*NOTE* Colossal Bass I/II require(s) Native Instruments Kontakt 5, or the free Kontakt 5 Player.
Kontakt 5 PLAYER users: You will still receive the full Colossal Bass Instrument with all features, but are limited to 15 minutes of use at a time. To earn another 15 minutes of use, simply remove Kontakt from your MIDI track, re-add Kontakt and reload Colossal Bass. Alternatively, you can always export your Colossal track and import into the session on a new audio track for a permanent solution in your project.

CB2 Pre-Processed Tones
B7K Patch:
The B7K patch was created using a Darkglass Microtubes B7K bass preamp for its drive, and was blended with a track sent through a SansAmp RBI for low end.

BSN Patch:
The BSN patch was carefully modeled after the bass tone from Circa Survives Blue Sky Noise album, using a modified ProCo Rat with an LM308 chip. This patch was also sent through a SansAmp RBI for its low end.

PSA1 Patch:
The PSA1 patch was made using a plugin model of the SansAmp PSA-1. This patch features heavy distortion, and gets its low end from a SansAmp RBI.

CB2 DI SAMPLER
NOTE: This sampler contains only one down-picked sample per note, with a limited range of A0 - C2.
