Pornofonic Instruments released ROOTBASS

Pornofonic Instruments released RootBass, a retro mechanical bass instruments constructed from a multisampled vintage analog synthesizer, physical actuators, noise artifacts, and amp/cabinet impulses. For Kontakt 5.8.1+

RootBass recaptures the sound of classic bass keyboards, electric basses and bass synths from the 60s and 70s: smoky tines, fuzzy basses, funky clavs, electric fuzzbox pianos, deep synth arps, broken rock organs, and old noise boxes that never existed yet sound like they should have. Always central to PFI’s instruments are noise and dirt which are integral to the instrument’s character. RootBass has a distinctive sound that feels solid, real, and deliciously mechanical.
