Scarbee MM-Bass – 16
5 Articulations
5.1 Sustains, Mutes and Harmonics
Sustain is the default articulation. For velocities below 40 you get mutes instead, and for
velocities below 15 you get harmonics where available and mutes otherwise. Enough veloci-
ties layers have been recorded to achieve natural transitions from soft to hard playing. Please
note that harmonics are mapped to the string/fret where they are played on a real bass and
not to the pitch of the sound.
If you activate the mutes key switch (A#1) you will get mutes irrespectively of the velocity.
This can be used to make it easier to trigger mutes since you do not need to rely on getting
the right velocity when using it.
5.2 Hammer-on / Pull-off
Legato
To trigger a hammer-on or pull-off you simply play a half- or whole
note either down or up legato (overlapping the earlier note). If a
hammer-on or pull-off is not available (eg. when playing a note le-
gato downwards from fret 1) you will get a sustain instead.
Hammer-on / pull-off for intervals greater than 1-2 semitones may
be played by activating the F#0 key switch. See more about this
further down.
