Toontrack has launched a new expansion for the EZbass virtual bass instrument. Disco Pop EBX features a collection of sounds, presets and MIDI tailored for retro and modern disco-inspired pop.

For this EBX, we went out of our way to find the ultimate instrument that could bridge that gap between classic and modern – one that had all the vintage traits but also enough girth to stand its ground in a modern pop production. We found it. At that, it’s not just any bass, it’s one of the 356 ever built Hagström* Super Swedes. Co-designed by the late Rutger Gunnarsson of ABBA fame, this is a bona fide disco bass icon just like the very man who once played it.

In addition to the instrument itself, this EBX also includes a broad selection of classic-to-modern-sounding presets as well as a basic collection of big, chunky and trademark disco-type basslines.

The EBX is available to purchase for 89 USD/EUR at Best Service and from the Toontrack store.
