If you are looking for a nice vintage-vibey bass with the typical growling attacks,
the "James Jamerson MOTOWN BASS" gives you a nice option.
This bass-library has got 10 Round Robbins (alternative samples) on each semitone and velocity layers.
About the guitar and the playing technique;
We used our Vintage 65 Fender, Precision Bass, with foam under the bridge with flat-wound strings and played just with the index finger just like James Jamerson did!
Gear used; ACME Motown D.I. & STUDER A80 Tape Recorder.
Here are the main features:
- JJ MOTOWN BASS.nkm for Kontakt 5.4.3 (48khz/24bit)
- easy to use interface
- controllable velocity hit for a mix-ready sound! Playing hard: note with growling attack / playing soft: smooth tone, good for a slidy tone change.
- easy control of playing sustain bass notes very convincingly: Modwheel for SUSTAIN/black "c" for STOPing sustain with humanized bass noise. That's all!
This enables a live performance to be presented very convincingly.
Above all, the number of RoundRobins and the ease of use of the controller makes this instrument a natural-sounding electric bass with the vintage feel of Motown.
