Tones from 4:23:


Model: Dingwall Super-P 4-string bass guitar.

DI: The pure, unprocessed sound of Ali Dean's signature bass, captured through pristine, high-end studio equipment. Ideal for shaping your own tone with your go-to plugins, amps, or outboard gear, this DI offers unmatched clarity and precision.

Clean: A pristine, clean tone that brings out the natural resonance and warmth of Ali’s bass. Designed for those moments when precision and definition are key, this tone delivers smooth lows and a sparkling top end, perfect for clean, atmospheric sections or dynamic arrangements where the bass needs to shine through without distortion.

Distortion: For those seeking more grit, this tone delivers a searing distortion, ideal for keeping up with dense guitars and aggressive drums. Inspired by the brutal bass lines from Architects’ heavier tracks, it offers a versatile overdrive that can be pushed to the limit, perfect for high-energy performances and recordings.

The tuning range of ArchitectsBass is C0 up to C4. It’s been tuned perfectly across the entire note range, so it can act as a tuning reference whenever you’re recording guitars.

truBass Technology: experience unparalleled realism with our industry-leading truBass engine, delivering the authentic feel and dynamic response of a real bass guitar.

Multi-Sampling: every fret position across the entire instrument has been multi-sampled, so you can program the performance exactly as a real bassist would play it.

Intelligent Alternate Picking: tempo-synced alternate picking algorithm has a robust round robin that never sounds like samples are repeating, no matter the speed of the music.

truSlides: the algorithm can slide from any note on the virtual fretboard, to any other note, at whatever speed or velocity curve you desire.
