Native Instruments introduced Scarbee Pre-Bass, a new software instrument designed to provide a musical rendition of the iconic Fender Precision bass.
Pre-Bass is derived from the Scarbee Blue Bass library.
Powered by the Kontakt engine and playable via the free Kontakt Player or the Kontakt 3 sampler, Scarbee Pre-Bass is designed to “deliver the full sonic spectrum of the most popular bass guitar of all time, suitable for a universal array of musical styles from pop and rock to hip-hop, jazz, funk and beyond, ” according to NI.
The four strings of the original instrument have been sampled in nine velocities, resulting in about 4,000 individual studio-grade samples. The sample material was recorded through a DI for maximum sonic flexibility, NI says, using round-wound strings for a bright and punchy sound. Specific “Player Profiles” for various genres as well as EQ and effect controls allow musicians and producers to further customize the sound and behavior of Pre-Bass to fit the musical context.
Pricing & Availability
Scarbee Pre-Bass is available for download purchase in the NI Online Shop for $89 / €79.
