I will be forever grateful to these guys! This was the first bass using advance scripting – and this is where I started my co-work with script wizard Nils Liberg. In 2007 I finished the iconic SCARBEE MM-BASS with guidance from Nile Rodgers and Richard Hilton who played with Bernard Edwards until his death in 1996. Ironically it took me 5 years to complete the SCARBEE VINTAGE KEYBOARDS - including SCARBEE MARK 1, SCARBEE A-200, SCARBEE CLAVINET AND PIANET and the SCARBEE VINTAGE KEYBOARD FX (now continued by Overloud) plugin! Not exactly an easy job as I expected, but this is me in a nutshell – I go into something, dig deeper and deeper and slowly revealing the secrets and soul of the instrument and can not stop until the job is done. Originally planning a fretless bass release – I instead decided to take a break from the basses and do some "easy" vintage keyboard sounds to use in my productions. It was released in 2009 by Native Instruments under the name SCARBEE JAY-BASS.

Due to "Tunnel Carpal Syndrome" (weak wrists) I invented an artificial way of playing bass using software in 1998 and released the SCARBEE J-Slap & J-Fingered in 2000. These products are used by top artists around the world on albums and live. After composing, producing music on more than 150 commercials for TV and Cinema (even working with Oscar winning director Bille August), I began to create Sample Libraries and Virtual Instruments as I wanted better sounds to use for my productions. I have played in various funk bands as a bassist during my younger years, but started soon to compose music for TV documentaries and aimed for a career as a film composer. These days my magic wand and top hat are the SCARBEE Virtual Instruments.

I watch almost every movie that raises the bar of Special Effects and I share true interest in computer and console games with my sons – for the same reason. Furthermore, the script enables you to configure all settings including EQ, load and store FX presets, and access documentation covering every aspect of the instrument directly through the instrument performance view.When I was a boy, I wanted to be a great Magician – I wanted to amaze the audience and leave them wondering, "how did he do that?" Years later, I am still very fond of "illusions" in any media. Under the hood SCARBEE JAY-BASS utilizes sophisticated scripting that automatically takes care of string selection, finger alteration, chord recognition, vibrato, release and much more.

The GUI provides more than just a visual aid for string selection, but information on articulations and hand positions that make this a superb tool for learning how to play bass.

Recorded through a DI the SCARBEE JAY-BASS is highly adaptable and fits easily in to the mix, with or without additional processing. JAY-BASS is so realistic that you can even slide between chords.

Utilizing recordings of the full strings of a late 70s Jazz bass, this instrument reproduces the timbre changes that occur when you move between low and high frets on the string of a real bass. True-to-life sound is critical for realistic slapped and fingered bass that’s why SCARBEE JAY-BASS is not just a collection of static sound samples. With three pick-up positions and a multitude of playing techniques, SCARBEE JAY-BASS has it all when it comes to slapped and fingered bass sounds. Based on the Scarbee Red Bass, it makes extensive use of the advanced scripting features introduced with the SCARBEE PRE-BASS.

This addition to the "powered by KONTAKT" range of instruments is an expertly played and sampled late 70s Jazz bass. SCARBEE JAY-BASS is the go-to source for slap and finger bass. Native Instruments Scarbee Jay-Bass KONTAKT DVDR | 1.81 GB
