Soundiron Twine Bass KONTAKT | 1.11GB
TheTwine Bass is composed of a pair of very special instruments: amodified cello and a traditional Kenyan fretless stringed instrumentcalled a Bolon. We strung the cello with rough hemp twine in varioustunings and played it as a stand-up bass. The resulting sounds aredeeply sonorous, with rich, warm resonance, powerful low end and awoody, soft quality. The bolon has a cows horn for a neck and a gourdas a body, with four twine strings and a goat-skin resonating head thatthe strings pass directly through. In addition to deep-sampling thestrings with 10x round-robin and up to 14 velocity layers, we sampled anumber of other sounds such as legato slides, string mutes, tuning pegpluck/twists, finger taps and brushes, and other percussive effects onthe instruments body.
This unique custom instrument collectionfeatures our brand new, exclusive glissando/chord generator. Thispowerful tool gives you deep control over a wide variety of chord andglissando functions such as speed, range, scale, direction and more.
