Bassysm-S is the slapped version of the Bassysm line: a four-string Musicman Stingray bass with roundwound strings, the classic slap bass.
It is sampled in depth: around 2152 samples, with 12 velocity layers for the slaps, 12 for the pops and 10 for the releases. The MIDI files of the demo songs are included.
Slaps and pops each have their own 12 velocity layers, from a light touch to a full hit.
Both are recorded with 2 round robins, so a repeated note does not sound like the same sample fired twice, and string noises are played randomly on top. Harmonics, ghost notes and string hits are all there too.
Play legato and the Bassysm-S connects the notes the way a bassist would, with real hammer-on and slide samples.
The legato mode decides what an overlapping note does: trigger a hammer-on, a slide, a plain sustain, or nothing at all. The legato distance sets the widest interval it applies to, so a big jump is still played as a fresh note.
Legato controls
Legato mode: choose whether playing legato triggers hammer-ons, slides, sustains, or has no effect. The mode can also be switched from the keyboard: Off (B4), Hammer (C5), Slide (C#5) and Legato (D5).
Legato distance: the maximum interval, in semitones, over which the legato applies. Wider intervals are played as new notes.
Everything you need to fit the bass into a mix is on the front panel: a cabinet simulation and a Bass and Treble EQ.
The sensitivity sets how quiet the softest notes are, giving you as much or as little dynamic range as the track needs.
Front panel
Release volume: the level of the sound produced when you release a string while a note is ringing.
Cabinet: turns the cabinet simulation on or off.
EQ: adjusts the Bass and Treble of the parametric EQ.
Sensitivity: sets the minimum volume for velocity 1, from a narrow to the full dynamic range.
