Session Bassist - Icon Bass: Kontakt Bass Instrument by Native Instruments

The library is built around a 1989 USA-made electric bass guitar that Native Instruments describes as one of the greatest bass guitars of its era. The instrument's active electronics are a key part of its sound. Native Instruments says this gives the low end a powerful, driving quality.

The active electronics add bite to the tone, which the developer positions for rumbling rock riffs, fierce funk fills and pop parts that need more presence in the mix.

Session Bassist - Icon Bass includes more than 200 playable patterns and phrases spanning a range of genres. These give you a starting point for bass parts that you can play directly from a keyboard or controller.

You can also edit and play your own solo melodies and basslines within the instrument, so the library works both as a source of ready-made parts and as a tool for writing your own lines.
