INSTRUMENT DETAILS
Taylor 810 Acoustic Guitar 1
Guitar enthusiasts know the Taylor 810 Acoustic Guitar for its pristine
yet warm sound. We sampled this one with the excellent Lawson Tube
microphone and it sounds amazing. Included flat picked, thumb picked, and
finger picked tones, as well as fret noise, harmonics, up and down
strummed chords, and muted chord "chunks". Chords include major and minor
open chords, major and minor bar chords, and Dom7 chords.
Les Paul Power Rock
Guitar
A heavily distorted but smooth electric guitar for the serious rock
musicians. This sample set features a Les Paul Guitar with Tom Anderson
Humbucker pickups run through a big, fat 1978 Marshall Amplifier. These
sounds are amazingly playable! Includes Lead Tones, Power Chords, Power
Mutes, Plucked Harmonics and FX.
Paul Reed Smith Guitar
Guitarists know the Paul Reed Smith name. It’s synonymous with some of the
best sounding (and expensive) electric guitars available. But save your
money! We’ve sampled this Hollow Body 2 beauty through a classic Marshall
Amp to overdrive your lead lines and distort your chord progressions.
Single notes PLUS major and minor downstroke chords, upstroke chords,
downstroke muted chords and upstroke muted chords.
Vintage Guild Guitar
Our good friend “Bob” collects vintage guitars and vintage guitar amps.
Once he gets them fixed up, we’re hot on his trail to sample them. We ran
his late 1960’s M65 Guild guitar through a 1960’s Gibson GA-5T Skylark Amp
to create a completely unique and very retro guitar sound. Best as a lead
guitar, there’s no way this sample won’t add some spice to your solos.
Tones PLUS major, minor and dominant chords.
Jazz Guitar
These first inversion jazz chords add unparalleled realism to any tune.
Included are strummed major7, dominant7, minor7, min7b5, and diminished7
chords, all played on a Les Paul Standard through a Fender Twin. All
Chords sustain naturally to silence, no loops, which is why the bank
utilizes over 5 megs of memory. Single Note Tones are also included
Vintage
Rickenbacker 12-String Guitar
For all you Beatles, The Byrds and The Who aficionados, here’s the famous
Rickenbacker 12-string electric guitar. This famous guitar sound can be
found on many classic songs including the Beatles “A Hard Day's Night”,
“Can't Buy Me Love”, “Eight Days A Week”, “Ticket to Ride” and others. Our
collection includes single notes as well as Major, minor, Dom7 and sus
chords.
Spector Slap Bass
Boston musician Chris Pereira and his fast slapin’ fingers filled all
corners of our studio with his gorgeous crimson Spector Bass playing. We
modeled this sound after the legendary Marcus Miller bass sound and sure
enough, it will knock you into the next room with its punch and clarity.
The Spector Bass was recorded using an all tube Ampeg bass pre-amp
processor and the bulletproof Manley tube compressor. This multi-velocity
soundfont is so unbelievably playable you WON’T be able to stop slapping.
So get your bass tracks in record mode, check out our MP3 demo and prepare
to be blown away.
Hard Pick Rock
Bass
After some persistent requests from our Sonic Implants fans, here’s 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. Several variations to choose from.
Alembic Bass
Alembic Basses are as beautiful sounding as they are looking. That’s why
top bass players such as Michael Manring play them. Processed through an
Ampeg SVT bass pre-amp and the Bellari Tube Compressors, this bass is fat,
round, yet distinctive in a mix. Articulations include Finger Tones,
Picked Tones, Slap/Pull Tones and a collection of slides.
Fender Jazz
Basses
Fender Jazz Basses are classics and a must in any bass collection.
Processed through an Ampeg SVT bass pre-amp and the Bellari Tube
Compressors, these basses are full but distinctive in a mix. Collection
includes a Fender Jazz Finger Bass and Fender Jazz Fretless Bass.
Dynamic Acoustic
Bass
Warren Senders, Boston bassist and vocalist filled up our studio with his
upright bass sonorities. Like Warren himself this bass has some spit and
attitude which will definitely liven up your jazz, pop, and fusion tunes.
Dual velocity, the soft strikes are clean and warm and the hard strikes
punchy and popped.
Hofner Beatle
Bass
The classic violin shaped “Beatle Bass”, made famous by Paul McCartney and
the Beatles of course. We recorded this highly sought after bass direct
into an Ampeg SVT Preamp followed by a smidge of compression from the
Manley Variable MU Compressor. The result is a very playable, very useable
bass sound you’ll definitely want in your Sonic Implants collection. |
