Soundiron has released Twine Bass, a new sample library for Kontakt.

The Twine Bass is a custom plucked string library, built from a cello strung with twine and a traditional Kenyan fretless 4-stringed instrument called a Bolon. All strings were sampled with 10x round-robin and up to 14 velocity layers. Included are a number of other sounds such as legato slides, string mutes, tuning peg pluck/twists, finger taps and brushes, and other percussive effects.

New to this library is Soundiron's exclusive glissando/chord generator. This powerful tool gives you deep control over a wide variety of chord and glissando functions such as speed, range, scale, direction and more. You can choose from 26 different chords and 13 different scales. The number of strings is adjustable from 1 to 24 and in glissando mode and 1 to 6 in chord mode. There is also a bank of 16 assignable keyswitches for instant access to your favorite selection of chords.
