Bringing the funk: Icon Bass, the newest bass virtual instrument!

[@JeffyG]

Love the intro! Parallel lives, Jef. I studied piano as a child for 12 years, switched to guitar but also played bass along the way in high school. I think because I could read music when other bass players couldn’t 😁 Icon Bass sounds great and I want it - but I have about 8 bass instruments (3 from NI) and need to reconcile what I’ve got versus what I actually use.

[@nico5]

Hahaha - you really fooled me with your slap-syncing!! Colour me impressed!

[@BeauTylerMakesMusic]

Definitely 100% of a plug-in. Loving it as much as Prime.

[@jefgibbons]

I think I like this one more, so much fun…

[@BeauTylerMakesMusic]

@@jefgibbons me too, probably. Just don’t want to hurt Prime’s feelings. 😂

[@aloisraich9326]

Thank you for this feature, you tought us the essentials of how to use this plugin in 5 minutes, phantastic

[@Pedrotube0565]

Hi Jeff, thanks for your review! As a non-bass player who already owns Prime Bass, I would like to know: is Icon Bass worth buying? Where do you see the main differences?

[@rickypollock9100]

I'd love to hear more of that Jam!! Great

[@BertFlanders]

You had me going playing that bass ! Thanks for the video and Cheers!

[@jefgibbons]

Fooled my bass player friend too 😜

[@kingslaphappy1533]

Pretty sure he can really play it pretty close to the plugin.

[@lauraconroy5575]

Yes! Make your Practice Video!!! You're a really great teacher, and I can't think of anything I (or most people that I teach) need more than a better developed practice... in terms of consistency and quality. Please make your awesome Practice video. I can't wait! 🙏 Also, I am truly grateful for your Cubase videos! (Their manual is not well done, and your videos fill a very important void in the educational materials that are out there. Much, much appreciated.)

[@haydengibbons5000]

Very cool video Unc!

[@kingslaphappy1533]

Good demo Jef.👍

[@adamredmond6255]

Sounds Fantastic! I want it now! Thanks Jef!

[@JoeyFTL]

Higher Ground is a good one! A workout on the drums as well...

[@Good_at_clips]

Love Kontact. Guitar rig 5 is pretty great. 👍🔥🔥🔥

[@michaelmilano4457]

thanks bro, great review

[@PULSEMusicGroup]

That intro is HALAROIUS! Something I would do, lol Just checked yours and Beau's vid! Always a dope vid! Blseeings!

[@jefgibbons]

Thanks Pulse!

[@felipefs106]

What's the difference with Prime Bass? is this like a more "funk, disco" focused instrument?

[@bamvoxstudios]

OMG! You got me sooo bad with that intro. I am a bass player, and I was about to be mad. 🤣🤣🤣

[@Yahoomediaclub]

Great review Jef..Great Bass..MMM Tasty Offering here from NI 🕶 Have all the guitars and two others..mmm

[@DWINC]

I have Prime bass. Does this add much?

[@frattuncbas]

I love Ujam Royal's presets,more unique.

[@88keyz]

👍🏾

[@Ibantar]

Sounds more like a Precision than a Music Man🤷🏾‍♂

[@vadimmartynyuk]

is it part of Komplete 14 ?

[@TheNumberMachine]

No, but it should be in Komplete 15.

[@meldmagic]

@@TheNumberMachine 🤠 Can't know that for sure. Some of the more boutique sample libs don't make it in Komplete. I've got 14 Ultimate & the only instrument bass included are the Scarbee ones.

[@TheNumberMachine]

@@meldmagic Session Guitarist: Prime Bass is listed as included for 14 ultimate.

[@meldmagic]

@@TheNumberMachine 🤠 My mistake. I have Ultimate 13.

[@cyclejammerj7227]

Slap a Da Bass……❤

[@kosmokint]

you sold it.

[@atarifalcon]

If I see it correctly, unfortunately not compatible with Kontakt 6, only with Kontakt 7. Too bad..

[@jefgibbons]

I think it's a moot point since you can use it with the free Kontakt 7 player 👍

[@atarifalcon]

​@@jefgibbons Yes you are right, the Kontakt Player 7 would be a possibility. I had completely forgotten. 👍

[@rom4486]

It’s supposed to Be musician bass , doesn’t sounds like

[@walterpreston9663]

WTF

[@BeauTylerMakesMusic]

Right?
