Twine Bass is a unique sample library for Kontakt, created by Soundiron. It features a combination of a modified cello and a traditional Kenyan fretless stringed instrument called a Bolon. The cello is strung with rough hemp twine in various tunings and played as a stand-up bass, producing deeply sonorous sounds with rich, warm resonance, powerful low end, and a woody, soft quality. The Bolon has a cow's horn for a neck and a gourd body, with four twine strings and a goat-skin resonating head, adding to the instrument's distinctive tonal characteristics.

Key features:

• Twine Bass and Gourd plucks, slides, slams, taps, brushes, flams, and SFX
• 10x round-robin and up to 14 velocity layers for detailed sampling
• 30 ambience patches created from the source content
• 20 custom sound-designed FX and ambient presets
• Flexible and intuitive multi-layer user interface controls, including LFO, filter, glide, and arpeggiator
• Full FX rack with convolution reverb, custom rooms, halls, chambers, and FX environments
• Exclusive glissando/chord generator for deep control over chord and glissando functions

This library includes over 2000 samples and is 2.45 GB installed, featuring 24-bit, 48 kHz uncompressed PCM WAV format. It requires the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.5 or later and is not compatible with the free Kontakt Player.
