Inspiration Sounds has announced the release of Funked Up Bass Guitars and Funked Up Horns, two new downloadable sample packs in WAV format.

Funked Up Bass Guitars (£24.95) features 640 funky bass loops performed exclusively by one of the UK's finest bass guitarists. It includes both 1963 Fender Precision Bass loops and 5-String Bass Loops.

Funked Up Horns (£9.95) features 120 Horn (Saxophone and Trumpet section) Riffs performed exclusively by one of the UK's leading Trumpet players (Glastonbury, Hyde Park, Top of the Pops, MTV) and a world class Saxophonist. Includes riffs in these Keys: A, B, C, D, E, F & G.

Like all of the other "Funked Up" Sample Packs, Bass Guitars and Horns were recorded and produced in a state-of-the-art studio using Pro Tools HD (TDM) and a Focusrite Control 24 Mixing Desk. All of the loops have been left dry without effects to give producers maximum flexibility. Initially recorded at 96 KHz 24-bit resolution then dithered down to 16-Bit 44.1 KHz to ensure compatibility with older software and keyboard samplers.
