Sonic Implants basses are unlike any you’ve heard. Awesome sonic quality, with multi-sampled tones, upstroke, downstroke, picked
mutes, plucked harmonics, slides and more. It’s this attention to detail that makes for incredibly authentic bass tracks. The basses range
from super punchy slap basses to warm, smooth finger basses, to cutting rock picked basses, and more.
Fender PBass
- The dean of American basses, the Fender Precision is a four-string workhorse chock full of thick, rich tone.
Heavy Pick Bass
- A bass for all you heavy rockers. In the style of Alice In Chains, this bass is heavily picked, heavily amped and heavily
played. Hits include both down and up picked tones so you can really dig in and get that hard rock sound. You won’t find this bass
anywhere else.
True Grit Bass
- Imagine plugging your favorite bass into an amp the size of a small building, cranking the volume knob to infinity, and
blowing an F5 tornado-sized riff through your town—True Grit Bass makes it possible.
Synth Bass
- Have the rave at your house! These synth bass patches will be all you need to keep the party moving and the dance floor
pulsing. Phat, funky, and righteous.
Keyboard Layout
Each key on a piano keyboard has a name and octave delineation. For example, middle C is C4. One octave above middle C is C5, etc.
(See diagram above.) This is useful in determining how our instruments are laid across a MIDI keyboard.
Note:
Middle C is C4, which is the standard for most MIDI keyboards, although on some applications or keyboards refer to middle C as
C3 (Yamaha) or C5.
All Bass instruments are laid out from C1-C4 (C4 is middle C).
