Product Information

The wooden sound of an upright bass delivers unmatched liveliness to the lower registers of any track. 'Upright Bass' covers multiple musical genres with its tasteful dynamic grooves.

This is the latest title of Ueberschall's Instrument Series, where every edition fully focuses on a single instrument. The loops and licks of this library cover multiple playing techniques and articulations of the upright bass, such as flageolet, walking bass, half time, slides, bends, double notes, and a lot more.

Content:

The spectrum covered by this library is amazingly versatile. The loops and their delicate grooves do not only match Soul, Funk and Jazz but also related and influenced styles. No matter if Trip Hop, Breakbeat, Lounge, House, RnB or Rare Groove, Upright Bass will deliver the matching basslines.

Additionally, by using creative filter and effect processing, these loops will also add and push the bass in modern genres such as Drum & Bass or Dubstep. The bass licks are between two and eight bars in length with tempos ranging from 61 to 130 BPM.

For this library, Ueberschall have fathomed the 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 that are even present on laptop and small speaker systems.

All recordings have been carried out at 44.1 kHz and 24-Bit with proven high-quality gear to achieve the best possible sound quality.

Structure:

Each of the 437 bass grooves is available in three versions, resulting in a total of 1,311 loops.

Mixed: This version mixes microphone and piezo recordings, resulting in a round sound with convincing transients and silky highs. These loops are perfectly suited to be used directly in a song arrangement.

Mic: This version only includes the microphone recording. By using an excellent Neumann unit, the warm, round sound of the bass was captured truthfully.

Piezo: This version recorded the instrument's sound directly at the instrument's bridge using a piezo pickup. This technique assures optimal transients and upper frequency reproduction.

By using versions 2 and 3, it is possible to create a custom tailored sound perfectly matching your production.
