Introducing the Octobass, the deepest concert string instrument, capable of reaching frequencies as low as 16Hz. Known for its thunderous, room-shaking growl at low notes and sweet honey-like tone at higher notes, this mammoth instrument delivers a truly unique sound experience. We’ve meticulously sampled the Octobass in extraordinary detail, offering improvised melodic phrases that will elevate your compositions with its unmatched tonal depth.
Standing at 3.48 meters (11.5 feet), playing the Octobass requires the performer to climb onto a raised platform and operate a set of mechanical levers to control the fingerboard, all while bowing with the right hand. The sheer size of the instrument, along with its cavernous resonances, results in a nuanced and complex tonal character that produces intense stereo movement and subtle mechanical ornamentation.
What’s Inside This Pack:
High-Quality Samples of the Octobass in both low and high tonal ranges
Improvised Melodic Phrases that capture the raw, organic sound of the instrument
Deep and Powerful Sound with intense tonal power and unique resonance
Subtle Mechanical Ornamentation for added realism in your production
Recorded in a large open space with close pair of large-diaphragm cardioid microphones for a dry and intimate sound
