MODO BASS 1

I said "mid november" because that's what Sweetwater has as release date (18th).
I don't know what to write here that won't be censored, as I can only speak in profanity.

Peter, is it possible we could hear some metalish/aggressive styled demos?

Played on the bridge, roundwound strings, picked etc. So far, everything I've heard is really mellow.

I have relayed request for this and other styles of demo to the team, I'll remind them of the request again. Thanks!

We have published a couple of new video demos on our YouTube channel. Here's one of those:

So there is something that can take the role of "repeat" key? How would I play a very simple bass line of just hitting same note up/down/up/down/etc using MODO?

You can set the Finger or Pick play style to alternate and play/program the same note.

But there presumably will be some brief discontinuity at the moments when I lift the finger to play the same key again?
What if I play it with sustain pedal, will it retrigger same string continiously or overlay a new note over already sounding one each time it is played?

Will there be velocity sensitive playing? What I mean is soft playing/stroking at low velocities and hard strokes/playing at high velocities? It sort of sounds like that's the case from the posted demo, but I need to make sure that I'm not misjudging things.

It really is crucial!

Haven't been on this thread in a while but will MODO be able to replicate slappy disco bass? Scarbee bass?

Was thinking the same thing. The point of the repeat last note key is to be able to play a single note faster than you can a single key and without gaps, like you can with two fingers on a string or with a pick.

And the feature request was relayed and logged.

There is a slap play style for your disco bass needs :)

Yes, MODO BASS is velocity sensitive for realistic results.

Haven't read the whole thread, so have to ask: is there going to be a double bass emulation added?
