Ilya Efimov has released Retro Bass, a detailed emulation of a Fender Bass Guitar '52 release for Kontakt.
The playing techniques included in a single patch - fingered, slap, palm-mute and additional articulations - allow the user to edit their MIDI data or play in real-time. By minimizing the use of keyswitches, the instrument has been designed to be simple and intuitive to use. A sophisticated algorithm to select strings in real time, automatically selects the natural bass guitar left-hand position on the fretboard. Manual string and position selection are also available.
The library's repetition keys are designed to make it easy to play realistic ostinato bass-lines. FX glissando will add to the realism of bass guitar parts. Multiple legato types are changed automatically, depending on the first note played.
Included, are several Legato modes, Open String mode, Chord Detection mode and X-note mode.
