Manytone Music has announced the first release in its series of ManyMores - high quality soundsets available in SoundFont and ManyStation format.

Ultimate Bass Kit gives you a collection of bass samples employing different playing styles, including picked, muted (both with the palm and with a rag to give an authentic reggae vibe), fingered (in several positions), slapped (in several different ways) and harmonics.

Ultimate Bass Kit focuses on clean, crisp - and most importantly, playable - samples, with many articulations arranged to give the player fast access to create a precise and highly nuanced performance.

Ultimate Bass Kit costs $29.99 and is available for download. A CD/DVD version is available for $44.99. Audio demos are also available.
