Product Description
NOCTURNALBASS
A longtime fan of SubMission Audio virtual basses, the compositional prodigy Nik Nocturnal asked for a custom virtual bass, perfectly tailored to his workflow – and we answered.
NocturnalBass is a meticulously-sampled virtual model of the legendary Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray. A studio staple, and perfectly suited to Nik – an official Ernie Ball endorsee.
The Stingray is a remarkably versatile instrument – equally at home plugging away at punk music as it is metalcore. Sampled in quasi J-Bass configuration, NocturnalBass has an extremely distinct and pleasant midrange character, with an almost unbelievably pleasant bottom end.
NocturnalBass is one of our personal favourites, simply because itโs so easy to use across such a wide variety of music. This, coincidentally, is perfect for Nik, who built his social empire by recreating a variety of genres in 30 seconds.
Now you too can get the bass tone of your dreams in less than a minute. We present: NocturnalBass.
TONES
Our design ethos behind NocturnalBass is to empower you with sounds that work whether youโre composing, demoing, pre-producing, or creating a release-ready mix. Itโs packed with 3 versatile tones:
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.
CLN:ย An enviable classic clean tone, shaped by our custom impulses of a legendary Ampeg Heritage 8×10 cabinet, as captured by premium Neumann U47 and U87 microphones.
Perfect from funk all the way through to metal, the โDriveโ control allows you to blend a distortion stage in parallel for that classic rock bass tone.
DIST:ย If you believe that a heavy bass tone should live in the midrange, this is the tone for you. Combining two amp stages, the DIST sound channels a remarkably textured midrange for that perfect glue between your bass and rhythm guitars. Like the CLN tone, itโs shaped by premium Ampeg and Neumann gear for a timeless sound.
In our usual style, both tones are premixed for your convenience – so you can get straight to the art of being creative.
The Drive, Tone, Compression and Girth controls further allow you to perfectly match the bass to your music.
FEATURES
NocturnalBass is a meticulously sampled virtual instrument, based on the sound of an Ernie Ball Music Man Stingray.
THE TUNING RANGE
The tuning range of NocturnalBass is C0 up to D4. Itโs been tuned perfectly across the entire note range, so it can act as a tuning reference whenever youโre 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
The Humanization control injects natural variance into the playback, for adjustable realism.
The Position control is a convenient way to select where on the virtual fretboard youโd 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,ย NocturnalBassย runs in the industry standard free Kontakt Player, meaning you donโt 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
Based on our next generation truBass technology, NocturnalBass features a ridiculously robust collection of articulations, including: Alternate Picking, Ghost Notes, Slap Bass, Natural Harmonics, Hammer On/Pull Off, Tapping, truSlides and Palm Mutes.
MULTI-SAMPLING
The entire fretboard of the instrument is multi-sampled so that your virtual riffs sound exactly as intended. Ie. Playing an open D string sounds vastly different to playing that same D note on the B-string.
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 FRESHโ TONE
NocturnalBass was sampled with brand new steel strings, meaning that you always get that lovely โpacket freshโ tone, with no wear down. The average professional bass recording session often costs several times the price of NocturnalBass in string packets alone.
