Hello there

Well, today is already the first of June and I unfortunately have not yet reached what I need for paying the rent, I will have to ask for a little friend’s loan or something, I don’t know… Meanwhile we are in the rush of searching for jobs, and will have some answers through this week.

In regard to the library, I am working hard and getting very good results so far, thank you for your interest

I have uploaded a little demo song, hope you like it, the sound of the bass is really great, at least for me!

Hello Nestor.
I also often have bass guitar in my hands.
I'm sure I can learn from your samples work, and I wanna use some of them in my patterns, so I think about takin part in your project.
I'm afraid I can't give an important contribution, but, considering the amount of people joined at now, I think I can give my quote.
Do your Paypal account is active now?

This is great! Thanks!

Things are coming up quite well; I have already finished a few sections of the library and am quite satisfied. It’s an exiting and very rewarding process to build loops. You’ll soon have more demos in the music forum area, with different styles of music so you can judge about the quality of these loops and its sound.

I hope that more of you come and join the party, as the work in this library is a serious one, and the price is ridiculous for what I’m giving away

Sorry, I was editing in the while you've posted

Right then, busted a string at a gig the other night (in the last bar of the last song of the last set

Where will I upload when I'm done, Nestor? PM me.

Also, I've been using these DR strings lately - best I've tried, ever.

What do you like to use, Z bassists?

our bassist uses nylon bass strings! didn't even know these existed

but Nestor, I think i'll go for your library when it's ready, keep going

Nylon

- they sound cool in the band, though, legros, if that's them on hugobanana.

Any way, Nestor, I've whacked together half a dozen loops and a simple long note program, all sts, doubled (but separate samples) tuba & bass - whenever you want'em, companero

There are 8-beat loops at 72, 82, 92, 93 and 104 bpm and a 4-beat blues loop at 100 bpm.

Long notes are just C1, G1 & C2 mapped up the keyboard.

The 82 bpm riff is actually part of the bass line from an old cop show , sort of, but I just had an urge to do it

by nylon strings you mean something like La Bella's Black Nylon Tape Wound strings?
my friend used to use them and they are great if you enjoy upright alike oomph and thick lows.
No fun with slappin' tho.
i like Elixirs and Dean Markley Fretmasters

Sounds like it's going to be a fun library.. look forward to it

Gonna check out those nylon strings, looks interesting.

Hello there people!

That’s great Wayne, fantastic you have finished those samples. I look forward hear at them! When the upload moment comes, I’ll send you some FTP coordinates.

DRUM & PERCUSSION ADDITION FOR FREE
I am glad to tell you people, I will also include a drum & percussion library of my own. Let me explain:

To record the loops I use solid rhythms that truly inspire me to play and rock, otherwise things tend to be cold. Well, “The Bass that Won the War” is not exception, and I am using all sorts of rhythms self-build custom-made rhythms to build and record the loops. These custom-made rhythms are also going to be included in the library, detached from the bass loops, so you can use them any way you like to

Cheers

yummy

yes that's what he plays on hugo banana. my first instrument being classic guitar the bass nylon strings concept was apealing as i later wondered what nail playing would sound like on it.. next time he comes in

Michu, i don't know about the brand

but yeah slapping is pretty much untasteful to this guy haha! his god being Jaco...

Michu · Post by **Michu** » Tue Jun 14, 2005 11:12 am

hehe, with E string being like of .115 gauge you may find it difficult to play with nails

if it is the brand i think it is, of course...
my friend took them off, because his gods are of Victor Wooten type

Nestor · Post by **Nestor** » Tue Jun 14, 2005 8:07 pm

AD LIVITUM SAMPLES

New Section added:

In this section you’ll find musical phrases played with no particular velocity, and most of all suitable for melodic music, or soft passages. I wanted to include something like this, so to satisfy the need for those willing to compose atmospheric backgrounds. You will find these loose time phrases very useful and inspiring for this kind of music.

Hi Nestor

I hope you manage to raise the funds for living. It is close to the 1rst again - does this mean, you are in the same situation now again?

Immanuel

Nestor · Post by **Nestor** » Thu Jun 30, 2005 8:03 am

Pretty much so Immanuel, but with a better perspective as we are doing little jobs here and there…

I want to tell to all interested people that I am working in the library again, from today and on. I’ll concentrate on it till it is finished.

I will post details here, so to keep you informed, thank you.
