The Upright Bass Black Friday deal from Ueberschall takes 30% off a library of 437 upright bass performances, which brings it to $44.80 until Nov 29, 2026.
It is a loop and lick pack built around the wooden, lively low end of an acoustic upright, aimed at soul, funk and jazz-flavoured productions.
The playing covers a broad palette, from harmonics and walking lines to half time grooves, glissandi, pitch bends and double stops.
The Mixed version blends the microphone and piezo recordings. The maker describes it as round, with convincing transients and silky highs, and says these loops are ready to drop straight into an arrangement.
The Mic version is the microphone recording alone, captured with a Neumann unit. The Piezo version comes from a pickup placed directly at the bridge, which the maker says gives optimal transients and high frequency reproduction.
Because all three versions of every performance are included, you can layer Mic and Piezo and dial in a custom sound for your own signal chain.
The maker also says the bass keeps its assertive, harmonically rich character on laptop speakers and small systems.
Ueberschall points to soul, funk and jazz first, plus related styles: trip hop, breakbeat, lounge, house, RnB and rare groove.
With creative filter and effect processing, the maker says the loops can also add bass to modern genres such as Drum & Bass or Dubstep.
It is also pitched at studios working on commissioned jobs like jingles, trailers and scores.
Elastik handles pitch-shifting, time-stretching and scale-syncing, so the licks can follow your project key and tempo.
For sound design it adds resample, formant, reverse and a multimode filter.
Its tag-based browser manages every installed soundbank together, which makes it easy to combine this library with others.
The Elastik Player runs as AU, VST, AAX or standalone, so no separate sampler is needed. It is recommended on macOS 10.12 or higher and Windows 8 or higher, and the Ueberschall Downloader needs an internet connection.
The backing loops heard in the demo are not part of the library.
Yes. The Upright Bass Black Friday deal takes 30% off, so the library costs $44.80 until Nov 29, 2026. You get the 437 performances, each in Mixed, Mic and Piezo versions, plus the Elastik soundbank.
The library holds 437 loops and phrases in 945 MB. Each performance comes in three versions, giving 1,311 loops in total. It ships as an Elastik soundbank for Mac and Windows, with the Elastik Player included.
It is an Elastik soundbank, not a standalone plugin. You play it through the included Elastik Player, which runs as AU, VST, AAX or standalone, so no sampler is required.
The licks run two to eight bars at 61 to 130 BPM. Techniques and articulations include flageolet, walking bass, half time, slides, bends and double notes. All recordings are 44.1kHz, 24bit.
