Tracktion Software Dan Dean Essential Bass v1.0.6-TCD

Tracktion Dan Dean Essential Bass is a sampled bass guitar instrument for producers who want realistic bass parts without recording a live player. Built from six instruments in Dan Dean’s personal collection, it covers clean, rounded, growling and fretless tones for a range of musical styles.

The lineup includes the Alembic Spoiler, Alembic Fretless, Fender Precision, Fender Telecaster, Lull Jazz and Washburn Fretless. Each bass has dedicated controls for pitch, decay, release, noise and glide, making it straightforward to shape the response around your track. Mod-wheel harmonics and keyswitch-triggered articulations, including slides, help add expression to programmed or played lines.

Modeled amplifiers offer additional tonal choices, while a separate effects page provides EQ and four independent slots. Load these with compression, chorus, distortion, phaser, filter, delay or reverb, then adjust the overall effect amount from the performance page.

With more than 100 factory presets, Essential Bass gives hobby producers and songwriters useful starting points for anything from restrained accompaniment to more distorted bass sounds. This edition is for Windows.
