About IK Multimedia MODO BASS

Over eight years in the making, the MODO BASS Electric Bass Virtual Instrument Software is a revolutionary product that brings unparalleled realism to your bass tracks. This full version software, delivered on a convenient USB drive, is the first of its kind to use physical modeling technology, offering an authentic and credible bass sound that is unmatched by other virtual instruments.

MODO BASS is not just a virtual instrument; it's a completely new breed of technology that models the entire process of playing bass. It captures every component that contributes to the unique tonal properties of a bass player playing an instrument, including the interactions between each tone variable. This results in a dynamic, living, and ever-changing performance that breathes life into your bass tracks.

Unlike traditional sample-based virtual instruments, MODO BASS uses real-time sound synthesis. It employs modal synthesis technology and an ultra-optimized sound engine to model each string as a nonlinear resonator. This means that the sound is generated by recreating the physical properties of a real instrument, synthesizing sound in real time.

The software includes 14 iconic bass models that span the history of music, each meticulously modeled and recreated. Version 1.5 introduces two new bass models: the Imperial, based on a 6-string Fodera Custom model, and the Metal, based on a 5-string Dingwall Combustion NG2. These models offer even more tonal flexibility, with the Metal model being particularly suitable for use with the new drop A feature, which allows the lowest note to be tuned from low B to low A.

MODO BASS also offers extensive customization options. You can modify your instrument and playing approach to get completely unique sounds. Choose your playing style, from finger to slap to pick, and adjust where you play on the strings. You can also customize your string choice, setup, and the electronics of the bass, including the pickups and wiring.

In summary, MODO BASS is a groundbreaking technology that redefines realism in virtual instruments. It offers an ever-changing, hyper-realistic, living-breathing bass sound and performance, with an extremely small memory footprint. With MODO BASS, you can take unprecedented control of every aspect of a performance, resulting in a limitless variety of bass sounds.
