Although it goes by many names, the double bass is one of those instruments that hardly needs one: you can tell it apart simply by the sound of a single note. The slightly muffled yet vibrant, earthy, and dark timbre of the double bass has permeated every level of our musical history, from its first iteration hundreds of years ago to the present day. Honestly, one word carries enough weight to describe its undeniable role in music as we know it: timelessness.
The Upright EBX comes with a hand-picked acoustic double bass, sampled to capture the complex and unique characteristics of this classic instrument. In addition to the sounds, it also includes a wide selection of presets as well as custom MIDI bassline content. Measuring six feet from scroll to tip, but with a sound similar to that of a ten-story building, it's the epitome of an instrument ideal for use in any jazz, rock, pop, or general acoustic music composition where the bass is "plucked" and needs to cut through. Welcome to the mother of all basses—twice the size, twice the action, and, if you ask us, a true delight.
Features: - Carefully detailed recording of a double bass - Finger-played - Recorded with a piezo pickup and five additional microphones - Wide selection of sound presets for a wide variety of double bass sounds - Extensive internal MIDI library with genre-defining bass patterns inspired by many different styles - Note: Requires Toontrack EZbass 2 for use
