Hi,
maybe someone knows of the Karoryfer Black and Blue Basses. They are CC-0 open source, so I edited them to be somehow Zynthian suitable.
Karoryfer Black and Blue Basses.zip (72.8 KB)
What is it?
It’s a sample library containing a “black” hollowbody bass and a “blue” solid body bass. It’s more than 1 GB in size and sounds quite nice.
Btw, I encourage you to pull the filter cutoff all the way down, because then velocity will modulate the filter in a very pleasing way.
How to install
- Move the content of the zip file to your user soundfont directory found under
/zynthian/zynthian-my-data/soundfonts/sfz/ - Download the above mentioned library from Karoryfer
- Move the content of their “Samples” folder to the already created “samples” folder.
What was edited
- Replaced some ARIA functions Sfizz cannot read
- renamed the non usable sub maps and control sfz’s so it doesn’t appear in your menu
- reduced the patches to one per bass
- wrote the control yml’s and chose more common midi ccs.
What could be done?
- I thought about moving the ghost notes from a keyswitch to low velocity note ons for more intuitive playing.
Licensing
I guess given the fact it is CC-0 licenced it is allowed what I did, if not, please send me a message. I did keep all the licence files and notes in the script intact.
