Soundiron announces The New Twine Bass - Experimental Low Strings Twine Bass is an extensive creation, containing over 2000+ samples and weighing in at over 2 GB. In typical Soundiron fashion, it comes complete with a full range of performance shaping and effects controls, allowing you to take the sound in any number of new directions.
Twine Bass is comprised of a pair of very special instruments: a modified cello and a traditional Kenyan fretless stringed instrument called a Bolon. We strung the cello with rough hemp twine in various tunings and played it as a stand-up bass. The resulting sounds are deeply sonorous, with rich, warm resonance, powerful low end and a woody, soft quality. The bolon has a cow's horn for a neck and a gourd body, with four twine strings and a goat-skin resonating head that the strings pass directly through. In addition to deep-sampling the strings with 10x round-robin and up to 14 velocity layers, we sampled a number of other sounds such as legato slides, string mutes, tuning peg pluck/twists, finger taps and brushes, and other percussive effects on the instrument's body. We've also included a collection of ambient pads, atmospheric drones and evolving soundscapes, giving this library a vast array of tonal possibilities. For this 2.0 upgrade, we remastered the samples and inserted them into our efficient four-layer template. After that, we expanded these experimental organic tone with a collection of ambient pads, atmospheric drones, evolving soundscapes as well as 20 custom FX presets to give your next track a running start. This library is built for the full retail version of Kontakt 5.5 or later.
