I suppose they are also quite 'programmable' but I've never been one to paint midi notes with a mouse. They are in my opinion the most playable of all the bass libraries that I've encountered, but of course that means you have to learn to play them. If you don't have a pedal I believe you can set a key switch to enact the slide mode. Soon many new bass sounds will appear - month after month. The default midi CC to enact slide mode is the release pedal. It's the first Scarbee bass to have been played with a pick rather than fingers, so it's tonally very different to their previous bass products.

You want to slide all the way down to G so you need to start out on the 7th fret of the E string and slide to G at the 3rd fret). Scarbee's Rickenbacker Bass (SRB) expands on their existing virtual basses with a posh new GUI, built-in effects, and some welcome improvements to the KSP scripting. The level of expression makes for a truly authentic and fun playing experience, and lends itself to a wide range of styles, from reggae, to pop, rock, hip-hop, R&B and much more.

If your starting note is a B and you want to slide down to a G then you don't want to start out on the A string (e.g. THE BASS Recorded with round-wound strings to get a fat and dirty sound, SCARBEE PRE-BASS also features a vast and incredibly intuitive set of playing techniques. Choice of string is not only about tone but also considering what note you're starting at and where you want to end up. You need to think more like a bass player that a keyboard player. In my experience the key to mastering Scarbee bass instruments is learning when to use the gliss (quickly playing an ascending half or whole step interval), when to use slide (holding down the sustain pedal and playing two overlapping notes) and using the key switches to select which virtual string a given note is played on.
