Upright Bass 2 ELASTiK

P2P | 22 January 2022 | 757 MB

In skilled hands, the upright bass is an amazingly expressive instrument, capable of adding instant character and class to a musical arrangement. As a follow-up to the original Upright Bass release, Upright Bass 2 is a further product in the Elastik Instrument Series, each of which focuses on a single instrument. As before, it features virtuoso playing, captured in pristine audio quality. However, the performances in this release contrast with the original by delivering generally lower tempos and a deeper, warmer, tone, with plenty of sub-bass content and the perfect amount of room ambience to let the performances breathe.

Upright bass v1.6 WiN MAC

Team DECiBEL | 19 Feb 2020 | 1.25 GB-1.29 GB Each

Upright bass was sampled from the pluckings of a gigging upright bass player. The bass itself was an inherited instrument from the musician’s grandfather. The exact age of the bass is not known, but it had seen some action, and although a little beat-up, still sounded great! To produce this library, the bass was sampled through a close-miced stereo pair of Shure SM81’s, an AKG D112, a Neumann Tlm 102 and a “di” bridge pickup. During mixing, it was decided that the SM81’s blended with the D112 gave the best overall tone. The bass was sampled over the course of a few 10 hour sessions, where the bass player played plucked notes, slap bass, and slides. Boy, did his fingers burn after those slides!

Upright EBX v1.0.0 EZBASS

P2P | 23 September 2021 | 577.9 MB

The iconic upright bass. Welcome to the definition of a timeless tone. Double-bass, standup bass, contrabass, bass fiddle, violone or, as in our case, upright bass. Although it goes by many names, it’s one of those instruments that hardly needs one – you can distinguish it just at the strike of a note. The slightly muffled but still vibrantly resonant, earthy and dark timbre of the upright bass has seeped through every tier in our music history, from its first iteration several hundred years ago until today. Honestly, only one word carries enough weight to describe its incontestable role in music as we know it: timelessness. The Upright EBX comes with a handpicked, acoustic upright bass, sampled to capture the complex and unique hallmarks of this classic instrument. In addition to the sounds, it also includes a broad selection of presets as well as a custom content of MIDI basslines.

Upright Piano v1.3.0 LiTE

P2P | 31 Oct 2020 | 261.35 MB

This is a light version of the Upright Piano library. This instrument is based on a Steingraeber 130. It originally appeared in the Akoustik Piano software. Despite its age, I think it’s still quite useful as a lightweight upright piano library. The samples in the original release were in 24-bit 44.1kHz WAV format. The samples were converted to 16-bit files. A null test with the original samples results in a peak of -87dB, which won’t be audible by any means! The samples were converted to KONTAKT’s proprietary NCW format, and then packed into NKX containers for convenience. The result is a reduction in size of around 82%, and space savings of 2.1GB!

Perfect For 60s/70s Pop But Equally Great For Other Genres

For music producers or songwriters looking for some instant inspiration, Upright Piano is ideal for a 60s or 70s pop sound but can equally be used for funk, soul, house, hiphop, lounge, ambient or even latin musical styles. Whatever the musical style, if you are looking to add the sound of an authentic piano performance to your next production, Upright Piano hits exactly the right note. While a concert grand has its musical place, there is nothing quite like the sound of a upright piano for classic pop. Upright Piano, which forms part of our Elastik Instrument Series, offers exactly this. The emphasis here is on ‘character’. The performances capture an old-school 60s/70s vibe. In addition, you get the genuine sound of the piano including all those sonic details – the hammer action, the pedals and the subtle tuning imperfections – that make it sound real. With a versatile collection of instantly useable musical phrases, the library delivers the sound of a real upright in a real room.
