I'm sure he'll have no problems with that (he's a nice dude). But of course you should wait for his reply.
I am, sent a mail this morning and patiently waiting

Still waiting

Howdy fellers. I finally buckled down and figured how to make the bass sample trigger randomly in VSampler, if anyone is interested. I posted the results over on Maz' phorum.

No, the notes are still at the correct pitch (thanks to transposing across keys), but they can come from any of a given pool of samples.
Following Markleford's approach I updated the sfz mapping with 2 or 3 rotating samples per note (so none was more than a semitone transposed). The zip file now contains the simple and the new version - DoubleBass2.sfz.

really want to give this a go. I assume i still need to convert files to sf2 format, then add the sfz file...

No need. Just drop the enclosed sfz file in the same directory as the samples and then open it with sfz. Easy as that

I'm working on a jazzy track and looking for a good (free ) upright/double bass. I'm actually using plugsound free which is not bad but somehow lack of depth...
(Any suggestion, preferably in sf2 format)

Hey man, I've got a really nice double bass instrument that i compiled for Short Circuit free by request of a client. I could send you the samples and the short circuit file. There's no velocity layering, but i sampled it at 4 different octave ranges....so it plays very nicely. I might release it on my site.....in the meantime, PM me or something and i'll send it over to ya.

peace!

no, i could upload it to my site...i just have to make sure the client i made it for doesn't mind. I'm not in contract with him or anything, but it was originally a "just for his use" kind of project. I'll talk to him though and see if i can make it a public release.

Peace!

Cheers Steve, that's great.

I mapped it in Reason's NN-XT sampler, laying out the individual samples for the soft notes and the hard notes to appropriate keys. But then I told NN-XT to disregard velocity, but rather alternate randomly between the two overlapping sets (rather than switching on velocity or cross-fading).

Then comes my usual secret (but not so secret) trick: I extend the overlap for each note to the semitone above and below, but still tell the sampler to alternate between any zones that overlap. As such, any note I play will randomly trigger any of 6 different samples. This makes for realistic variety in human playing.

Could you post (or PM me) a link to the .sxt file you made for this bass? Would save me quite a bit of time mapping

Thanks

Has anyone had any correspondance from this guy? Ive sent 4 emailks now asking for permission to use his double bass samples in an Orion preset, but not heard a thing

Matbe i should just put it up and credit him, i can always take it down if its a prob, and im not re-ditributing the wavs (its kinda like a soundfont, in Orion format)

See, that's the problem with "embedded" patches (SF2, .gig, whatever).
If I were to do a Kontakt, EXS or HALion patch I'd just do so and put the patchfile only up, supplying a link to the required samples.
If the author would think ít's time to stop sharing them I wouldn't run into any problems.

Best free upright/double bass??
