Orange Tree Samples has just released CoreBass Pear, an upright bass sample library for Kontakt 2 and 3.

Using Kontakt's scripting engine, CoreBass Pear intelligently interprets the input from your MIDI controller (or sequenced MIDI data) in order to produce realistic upright bass tracks. The library was sampled both using a mic and directly from the output of the bass pickup—two separate signals which can be mixed to create a variety of different upright bass tones. You can select between the presets CoreBass Pear comes with, or create your own, all within the sample library's interface.

The library features :

- 400 MB of hand-tuned 24-bit samples
- Full sustain with natural decay and release samples
- Separate mic and DI samples
- Individually sampled strings
- 2x intelligent round-robin sample cycling
- Seamlessly slide from one note to any other
- Variable pre-pluck noises
- Dynamic vibrato
- Harmonics, string slaps, mutes, and other special effects

CoreBass Pear is available for an introductory price of $54.95 (normally $64.95) as a direct download. The introductory discount ends on February 15th, 2009.

You must be logged in as a registered member to use this feature!
