Full Sonic Range Of The Upright Bass

The bass licks are between two and eight bars in length with tempos ranging from 61 to 130 BPM. Each of the 437 performances is available in three different versions, giving a total of 1,311 loops:

1-Mixed: This version mixes the microphone and piezo recordings, resulting in a round sound with convincing transients and silky highs. These loops are perfect for direct use in a song arrangement.

2-Mic: This version contains only the microphone recording. Using an excellent Neumann unit, the warm, round sound of the bass has been faithfully captured.

3-Piezo: This version records the sound of the instrument directly at the bridge using a piezo pickup. This technique ensures optimal transients and high frequency reproduction.

With the use of versions 2 and 3, it is possible to create a custom sound that is perfectly suited to your production. For this library, we have explored the full sonic range of this instrument. Thanks to professional recording techniques, you will not only hear but also feel the full depth of the upright bass, as well as its assertive and harmonically rich sound elements, which are even present on laptop and small speaker systems. All recordings were made at 44.1kHz and 24bit using proven high quality equipment to achieve the best possible sound quality.

Astonishingly Versatile

The spectrum covered by this library is astonishingly versatile. The loops and their delicate grooves fit not only soul, funk and jazz, but also related and influenced styles. Whether it is trip hop, breakbeat, lounge, house, RnB or rare groove, Upright Bass will deliver the right basslines. With creative filter and effect processing, these loops can also be used to add bass to modern genres such as Drum & Bass or Dubstep.

Soulful Grooves

Upright Bass is a library dedicated to musicians looking for a soulful groove in their productions. The instrument's broad musical spectrum will appeal to any musician influenced by soul and funk, as well as studios working on commissioned productions such as jingles, trailers or scores.
