first twice: a bass guitar loops and samples pack

first twice: a bass guitar loops and samples pack

Inspired by the Basslines of modern indie bands such as The 1975, Tame Impala and Phoenix; this Bass Pack features 35 loops and a collection of one-shot samples including slides, pops, pull-offs and hammers.

Ideal for songwriters composing over loops or for producers working on an arrangement, 'First Twice' covers a range of tempi and keys, making it a versatile, go-to source for getting a 'played' Bass Guitar feel.

Recorded on a Jazz Bass strung with flatwounds, the loops and samples range in tone from clean to medium-gain.

Each loop is accompanied by a MIDI file with the bassline mapped out. With many modern Rock and Pop productions mixing in Synth Bass with Bass Guitar tracks, these .midi files allow users to concentrate on sound design with the bassline notes set to go.
