"...a truckload of great multisampled basses...easily the best acoustic bass I've ever heard on
any sample collection ...thoroughly convincing...the velocity switching is superb...really fun to
play...the low-end sounds particularly good... the most flexible bass loops I've encountered...
This is a great disc... Definitely put this one on your list of must-haves!"-KEYBOARD 5 star rating

"...really two products in one: a collection of bass phrase loops and a library of multisamples
matching the tone and style of each loop...Coming from three such magnificently talented, multifaceted
players, the phrase loops are naturally superb...styles span a wide range, from funk, rock and reggae,
to swing and acid jazz...The documentation is excellent...Although the phrase loops are great, Bass
Legends is worth purchasing for the multisamples alone...over 40 different bass sounds, including
picked, fingered, slapped, popped, and muted clean electrics; half a dozen fretless basses; a couple
of overdrive-colored electrics; and one sterling acoustic bass...Many use velocity-switched layers
for greater expressiveness, and some also include extensive samples of special effects, including
slides, string hits and scrapes...an ultra-organized labeling system...the combination of memory-usage
options with clear, consistent labeling really makes working with the library a pleasure...the best
sampled acoustic bass I've ever heard....a totally incredible three-way, velocity-switched funk bass...
The samples and programming work together exceptionally well...wonderful fretless basses...cool and
fun to play, these sounds are useful in the real world...Bass Legends is a genuinely superb product.
The phrase loops are well-organized, exquisitely recorded, and brilliantly performed; the bass
multisamples are flawlessly looped, expertly programmed, and lend themselves to expressive playing.
I'd encourage anyone to go for the CD-ROM version rather than the audio CD; you don't want to miss
out on those multisamples!"-ELECTRONIC MUSICIAN 5 star review
