Electric Bass

● If the Articial Harmonics articulation is selected, harmonics are played on
pressed strings.
● If the Natural Harmonics articulation is selected, harmonics are played on
open strings.
NOTE
All harmonics of one string are mapped to the corresponding MIDI note and
distributed over the velocity range.
Player
Allows you to select a bass player. The available players differ mainly in the strategies
used to determine on which string and in which fret position a note is played, either
to minimize hand movement across the fret board or to create a more varied playing
style.
● The default Standard player moves to the nearest and best reachable position
on the fretboard for the next note.
● Avoid Open Strings is based on the same algorithm, however, this player
avoids playing open strings.
In addition, the following players are available:
● Blues
● Country
● Funk
● Jazz
● Metal
● Octaves
● Pop
● Rock
● R&B
● Walking Bass
These players are based on musical styles and the playing techniques used by
famous bass players of the genre.
Level
Adjusts the output level of the bass.
Tone
Allows you to shape the tone of the bass.
NOTE
The behavior of the Tone control depends on the Pickup parameter setting.
Ghost Notes
Activate this option to trigger ghost notes for lower velocities. The value eld on the
right allows you to specify the threshold for the ghost notes.
NOTE
Ghost notes are not available for the Mute, Natural Harmonics, and Articial
Harmonics articulations.
