{"product_id":"toontrack-ebx-hard-rock-365350","title":"EBX Hard Rock","description":"\u003ch3\u003eWhat Hard Rock EBX Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eHard Rock EBX is a sound expansion dedicated to Toontrack EZbass 2, designed to create basses with a strong character in hard rock productions where the low end must be \u003cstrong\u003ecentral\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003estable\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eaggressive\u003c\/strong\u003e without ever losing definition. It suits both fast and tense tracks as well as massive mid-tempos, \"stadium\" choruses, and tighter, more percussive verses. The goal is clear: to provide you with a bass capable of shifting from a \u003cstrong\u003eclean and readable\u003c\/strong\u003e sound to a more \u003cstrong\u003egritty\u003c\/strong\u003e and raw attack, while remaining perfectly grounded in the mix.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhether you compose, arrange, or produce, this EBX speeds up your workflow: choose a preset, load a suitable MIDI pattern, then adjust the playing (positions, velocities, articulations) to fit the riff, drums, and energy of the track. You quickly get bass lines that support the song, reinforce the groove, and add that typical bite of great hard rock productions.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMain Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAn Instrument Tailored for Hard Rock\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of Hard Rock EBX is a classic 1970s bass, which has become an aesthetic standard in the hard rock world. Its sonic identity is characterized by \u003cstrong\u003epunchy lows\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eroaring mids\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003epresent but controlled highs\u003c\/strong\u003e, making it easier for the bass to find its place in a dense mix (saturated guitars, snappy snare, bright cymbals). The result: a solid low-mid range to carry riffs and a high spectrum precise enough to hear every attack.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eArticulations and Playing Techniques for Credible Parts\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe expansion offers various essential techniques for the style: \u003cstrong\u003efingerstyle\u003c\/strong\u003e for roundness and continuity, \u003cstrong\u003epick playing\u003c\/strong\u003e for precision and impact, \u003cstrong\u003eghost notes\u003c\/strong\u003e for rhythmic bounce, as well as \u003cstrong\u003etaps\u003c\/strong\u003e and other useful nuances to enrich transitions, variations, and phrase endings. In practice, this allows you to write lines that don't sound \"programmed\" but truly performed, with micro-accents and the expected edginess of hard rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eMono and Stereo Outputs: More Control in the Mix\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eHard Rock EBX was recorded via the bass's \u003cstrong\u003emono\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003estereo\u003c\/strong\u003e outputs, an advantage for adapting width and presence according to your production. In mono, you get a solid foundation, perfect for locking the low end of the mix. In stereo, you can explore a wider image depending on the arrangement and the space left by the guitars. This flexibility is complemented by the \u003cstrong\u003e\"Clean DI\"\u003c\/strong\u003e preset, ideal for starting with a clean, coherent signal that's easy to process with your EQ, compression, and saturation chains.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePresets and Integrated MIDI Library: From Riff to Full Structure\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe included collection of \u003cstrong\u003epresets\u003c\/strong\u003e allows quick shifts from a clear and articulated sound to more biting and muscular textures, suitable for tight verses as well as massive choruses. The internal \u003cstrong\u003eMIDI library\u003c\/strong\u003e provides genre-typical patterns inspired by many styles within hard rock: perfect for starting an idea in seconds, testing different playing intentions, then customizing everything to follow your chord changes, breaks, and dynamic variations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e@media(max-width:632px){table[data-wb-spec]{display:grid;grid-template-columns:minmax(0,1fr) minmax(0,1fr)}table[data-wb-spec] colgroup{display:none}table[data-wb-spec] tbody,table[data-wb-spec] tr{display:contents}table[data-wb-spec] td{display:block;overflow-wrap:anywhere;grid-row:var(--wb-l);background-color:var(--wb-lb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[data-r]{grid-row:var(--wb-r);background-color:var(--wb-rb)}table[data-wb-spec] td[colspan=\"2\"]{grid-column:1\/-1}table[data-wb-spec] td:empty{display:none}}\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:1;--wb-r:2;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eFull software\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDownloadable\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable data-wb-spec style=\"width:100%;table-layout:fixed\"\u003e\n\u003ccolgroup\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003ccol style=\"width:25%\"\u003e\u003c\/colgroup\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:transparent;--wb-l:1;--wb-r:3;--wb-lb:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-rb:var(--wb-neutral-50)\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003eEBX extension for virtual bass\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIncluded preset\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003e\u0026quot;Clean DI\u0026quot; for optimal sound control, regardless of playing technique and position\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr style=\"background-color:var(--wb-neutral-50);--wb-l:2;--wb-r:4;--wb-lb:transparent;--wb-rb:transparent\"\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left;font-weight:var(--font-body-weight-bolder)\"\u003erequires Toontrack EZbass 2 to operate\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd data-r colspan=\"2\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e","brand":"Toontrack","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54357983854867,"sku":"365350","price":71.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/ac88b23ffa7a39bb626f7b50b038b74a013b38a4_1TOONTRACK_TT527.jpg?v=1792547210","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/toontrack-ebx-hard-rock-365350","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
