Virharmonic have announced Bohemian Bass Core, available to pre-order for $118.00, increasing to $165.00 upon its release. The offer ends March 30th. In addition, there’s an extra Loyalty Discount available for existing virharmonic customers.
Creating music has never been so easy, with the help of our Virtual Performer making split second decisions based on your playing input, inspiring you to write lyrical lines like never before. Freeing you to create Real Performances.
The Bohemian Bass is the fourth instalment in the Bohemian Series and was recorded at Virharmonic Studios in the same Studio environment as the other Bohemians and was captured as dry samples. (Reverb can be decreased or switched off in the instrument to get dry samples). Captured using Mid Side Stereo Microphone configuration.
Virharmonic have captured melodic on-bow and bow-change legato to work seamlessly in musical context of the other Bohemians as well as capturing contextual re-bows that are commonly used in Double Bass performances, the re-bow timing is decided by the composer.
As there are no extended articulations in the Bass this makes it slightly different compared to its siblings, so we decided to highlight this with the addition of the name “Core” as it contains the main core foundations of the Bohemian Series, this is also reflected in its lower price.
Includes:
- Longs: arc, mid arc, sustain, marcato, diminuendo and non-vibrato
- Shorts: staccato, spiccato, pizzicato
- Legatos: two variations of in phrase on-bow legatos and two variations of in phrase bow-change legatos
- Bowing: lasting bow, down bow, up bow, auto re-bow
All with round robins, real up bow down bow recordings, multiple dynamics and all captured chromatically.
Part of an expanding series of performers, the Bohemian Bass was created to free you to perform real Bass Performances fast, without the need to be a Double Bass player yourself.
To achieve realism, we recorded an unprecedented amount of samples for a solo instrument, but managing all this by loading individual patches would be slow and cumbersome and stifle inspiration.
This is where the virtual performer comes in, controlling all the varied legatos, bow types and emotive expressions as you play, all from one patch and all in real time.
Features include:
- The virtual performer: enables incredibly easy live play, auto selecting the bow types, legatos and bow positions based on your play style.
- Mood selection: improv, emotive, and assertive allowing you to change the behaviour of the Double Bass on the fly
- Performer mode: solo, second bass, trio, chamber, divisi trio & divisi chamber
- Maestro: the only Performer Poly-Legato
- Crafting: blend any forced on bow type/articulation with our legatos.
- Reverb & space: convolution & algorithmic reverbs with added spaces: hall, chamber and studio
- Built in velocity control
- Built in expression control
- Built in help guide.
Bohemian Bass Core is available to PC and Mac users (VST3, AU and AAX).
