Art Vista releases "GrooveMaster - the Tony Newton Bass Libraries" for Kontakt and Kontakt Player

Art Vista Productions has released a new electric bass sample plug-in series, GrooveMaster, featuring Antonio "Tony" Newton, the legendary "Baby" Funk Brother whose career spanned from the early days of the electric bass - with John Lee Hooker and Little Walter, and as staff bass player at Motown alongside James Jamerson, and through his later fusion work with Tony Williams Lifetime.

The series includes three playable sampled bass instruments: Old School Bass, Double Neck Bass, and Bright Funky Bass. The instruments include intuitive "intelligent" playback features that are designed to automatically emulate the playback of a real bass player when played from a MIDI keyboard. These virtual bass instruments can be switched from fully automatic intelligent playback to complete, or, partial key-switch control.

Price: $99.00 for each instrument. A bundle of GrooveMaster's three sampled instruments is offered for $199.00.
