Description Tech specs Copy protection

JBass is a four strings american Fender Custom shop Jazz bass with flatwound strings.

The first Jazz Bass was made in 1960. It was made to accompany Fender's new guitar at the time, the Jazzmaster. The neck on the Jazz Bass were longer and narrower than any of Fender's previous models. This new design was intended to mimic the feel of the stand-up bass. Even the new mid tones that the guitars could produce were made with jazz musicians in mind. The sound of the Fender Jazz Bass has been fundamental in the development of signature sounds in certain musical genres, such as funk, disco, reggae, blues, heavy metal and jazz fusion and is now used in almost any genre.

Default interface

At the bottom of the interface, you can control the behavior of the instrument:

Play mode: you can choose the playing technique, we recorded the bass using the fingers, a pick, playing it with the fingers or the pick with the palm muting the strings.
Legato mode: you can choose wether playing a legato will trigger Hammer ons, slides, sustains, or simply have no effect.
The legato distance will define the maximum interval that in which the legato will apply.
The release Volume: the sound produced when you release a string if a note was going on.
Compression: you can turn the multiband combressor on or off.
Cabinet: you can turn the Cabinet simulation on or off.
EQ: you can edit the Bass and Treble of the parametric EQ.
The Sensitivity will set the minimum volume for velocity 1 and give you access to all the dynamics that you want.
