SubMission Audio ShinzBass KONTAKT

SHINZBASS
You can have progressive metal's most enviable virtual bass at your fingertips, effortlessly recreating Nick's iconic tones with Job For A Cowboy, Cephalic Carnage and Havok.

Whether you're writing rock, pop, funk, a progressive opus, or getting down with straight up death metal, ShinzBass is your solution.

TONES
Yin (DI): The raw sound of the instrument, captured directly via high end, studio-grade recording hardware. Process as you would any other bass - using your favourite plugins, pedals or amps. This allows ultimate flexibility; mix the bass on your own terms.

Ram's Head: A tone recreating Jason Suecof's exact processing chain from Job For A Cowboy's 'Moon Healer' album.
Think of this as a hot-rodded DI, expertly molded by a legendary producer to perfectly fit the gap between drums and guitars.

Yang: A classic 'grit' tone which can easily be pushed into distortion, based on Nick's work with Havok. Ideal for heavier music.

FEATURES

Warwick Dolphin: Exceptionally realistic virtual model of a Warwick Dolphin 5-string bass guitar for Kontakt Player.

THE TUNING RANGE
The tuning range of ShinzBass is C0 up to A4. It's been tuned perfectly across the entire note range, so it can act as a tuning reference whenever you're recording guitars.

THE DOOM BUTTON
Intentionally shrinks the round robin, giving you the most powerful, direct samples for reduced realism and greater consistency - for those times where variance is undesirable.

HUMANIZE
Infuse your performance with natural variation using the Humanize control, adding subtle differences for a more organic feel.

The Position control is a convenient way to select where on the virtual fretboard you'd like the performance to take place.

For absolute control, our Force String articulation can select exactly which string each note is performed on, giving you the ability to tonally match your guitar riffs 1 to 1.

Use the Configuration menu to rebind keyswitches, set the tuning of the bass, and adjust the pitch bend range for ultimate customization to your personal workflow.

NATIVE INSTRUMENTS - KONTAKT
As an official Native Instruments partner, ShinzBass runs in the industry standard free Kontakt Player, meaning you don't have to worry about any additional hidden costs. Kontakt is the most widely used and widely compatible sampler in the industry, meaning there is a robust team of professionals available to make it work perfectly for you.

TRUBASS TECHNOLOGY
Experience unparalleled realism with our industry-leading truBass engine, delivering the authentic feel and dynamic response of a real bass guitar.

MULTI-SAMPLING
Every fret position across the entire instrument has been multi-sampled, so you can program the performance exactly as a real bassist would play it.

TRUSLIDES
Our truSlide algorithm can slide from any note on the virtual fretboard, to any other note, at whatever speed or velocity curve you desire, to perfectly match the slides of your real guitars.

INTELLIGENT ALTERNATE PICKING
Our proprietary tempo-synced alternate picking algorithm has a robust round robin that never sounds like samples are repeating, no matter the speed of your music.

PACKET FRESH' TONE
ShinzBass was sampled with brand new steel strings, meaning that you always get that lovely 'packet fresh' tone, with no wear down. The average professional bass recording session often costs several times the price of ShinzBass in string packets alone.
