Samples of an oddball bass guitar made in Poland in 1972. It's got a big but thin hollow body, a medium 32" scale, a bolt-on neck, and flatwound strings. Old-school sounds full of character and thump. Made in the same year and in the same government factory as the guitar we sampled for Secret Agent Guitar.
Key features:
Samples played with fingers and pick
Four articulations: pluck, ghost note, hammer-on and harmonic
Release noise samples
Four round robins for all samples except harmonics, which have three
Three dynamic layers for finger plucks, two dynamic layers for pick plucks and ghost notes
Every string sampled up to the 22nd fret
E string additionally sampled tuned down every half-step down to C, and G string sampled at the 23rd fret
Violin-style and guitar-style vibrato, with humanization
Emulated muting and feedback
Over 7000 24-bit 44.1 KHz WAV samples adding up to more than 5 GB extracted
And a short demo where two instances of Secret Agent Bass are joined by Secret Agent Guitar chords and Big Rusty Drums played with brushes.
Requires Plogue Sforzando version 1.951 or newer, which can be downloaded for free from Plogue's website. All the samples are also included as unlocked WAV files, so you can also use them as one-shot samples etc. if desired.
