AMERICANA EBX
美国EBX

THE ALL-ROUND SOUND.
全方位的声音。

The bass, the presets and the MIDI for anything from subtle to rocking Americana.
低音，预设和迷笛，从微妙的美国摇滚。

Although it’s had its foothold deeply rooted in the folk, gospel, blues, soul, country, jazz and rock songwriting tradition, Americana music has kept evolving and become a huge umbrella under which anything that doesn’t quite fit the commercial country music mold can thrive.
尽管美国音乐的立足点深深植根于民谣、福音、布鲁斯、灵魂乐、乡村乐、爵士和摇滚乐的创作传统，但它一直在不断发展，并成为一把巨大的保护伞，任何不太符合商业乡村音乐模式的东西都可以在它的保护伞下茁壮成长。

This EBX was tailored to bring you a workhorse-type expansion that functions in all these scenarios – for anything from small and acoustic setups to full-on electric rock instrumentations.
这EBX是量身定制的，为您带来一个工作马类型的扩展，功能在所有这些场景-从小型和声学设置到全电动摇滚仪器。

The Americana EBX comes with a classic American brand bass sampled in two fundamentally different ways: one by using a traditional finger playing style and the other by muting the strings with rubber foam and striking with the thumb.
Americana EBX采用了两种完全不同的方式来采样经典的美国品牌贝斯:一种是使用传统的手指演奏风格，另一种是使用橡胶泡沫来静音琴弦，用拇指敲击。

In addition to the sounds, a broad collection of presets as well as a custom MIDI library of basslines are included.
除了声音，广泛的预设集合以及一个自定义MIDI库的低音包括在内。

If you’re looking to boost your EZbass with a jeans-and-t-shirt-type expansion that works in any scenario, this is it.
如果你想用牛仔裤和t恤类型的扩展来提升你的EZbass，在任何情况下都可以，这就是它。

No frills or extras, just good old rock and roll, folk, gospel, blues and, well, the entire mosaic of styles that can be traced back to Americana.
没有装饰或额外的东西，只有好的老摇滚，民谣，福音，蓝调，嗯，所有可以追溯到美国的风格。

THE INSTRUMENT.
仪器。

An true classic.
真正的经典。

When scouring the world of basses for an instrument that could rightfully be dubbed Americana, the Toontrack Sound Design team had their ears set on one that could muster the vast range of styles that huddle up under the genre’s umbrella.
当在贝斯的世界里寻找一种可以被称为美国音乐的乐器时，Toontrack声音设计团队把他们的耳朵放在了一种可以聚集在这种流派的保护伞下的广泛风格的乐器上。

“Seeing as this Americana encompasses anything from small and acoustic to loud, full-on electric rock band instrumentations, we needed a bass that had a leg in each world, so to speak,” comments Ulf Edlund, EZbass lead sound designer.
EZbass首席声音设计师Ulf Edlund评论道:“鉴于这种美国音乐涵盖了从小型和原声到响亮的全电摇滚乐队乐器的任何东西，可以说，我们需要一种在每个世界都有一席之地的贝斯。”

The instrument in question is of course a Fender Telecaster Bass.
在讨论的乐器当然是一个Fender Telecaster低音。

* The specific model sampled for this EBX stems from the very first batch in this new line of basses that Fender brought to market in 1968.
*这款EBX的具体样品型号源于Fender于1968年推向市场的新低音系列的第一批产品。

Or maybe one should say reintroduced – the Telecaster was actually based on the very first and discarded rendition of the now-iconic Precision Bass from 1951.
或者也许有人应该说重新引入-电视aster实际上是基于1951年第一次和废弃的现在标志性的精确低音。

This makes the Telecaster Bass the first-ever Fender* reissue.
这使得Telecaster Bass成为Fender首次重新发行的唱片。

This original version of the Telecaster, with its hefty slab-style body, single-coil pickup and large chrome bridge and pickup covers, lasted until the early ’70s.
这种原始版本的Telecaster，拥有沉重的平板式机身，单线圈拾音器和大型铬桥和拾音器盖，一直持续到70年代初。

After that, changes so substantial were made to it that it essentially was a new instrument.
在那之后，对它进行了巨大的改变，它基本上是一种新的乐器。

Welcome to add this chameleon of an instrument to your toolbox of tones – a bass that seamlessly can move between timid and loud without making any compromises and simply just adapts on its own terms, much like the Americana genre itself.
欢迎将这种变色龙般的乐器添加到您的音调工具箱中-低音无缝地可以在胆怯和大声之间移动，而不做任何妥协，只是简单地适应自己的条件，就像美国音乐流派本身一样。

THE SOUNDS & ARTICULATIONS.
声音和发音。

Since the Americana EBX sets out to capture the broadest possible definition of the genre, it includes both an option sampled using the traditional finger style (‘Finger’) close to the bridge as well as one that was recorded using the thumb near the neck together with rubber foam mounted between the strings (‘Thumb Muted’).
由于Americana EBX旨在捕捉最广泛的类型定义，它既包括使用传统手指风格(“finger”)靠近桥的采样选项，也包括使用靠近颈部的拇指以及安装在琴弦之间的橡胶泡沫录制的选项(“thumb静音”)。

This gives you two completely opposite sonic approaches to the same instrument – one open and round with an abundance of sustain and one that is dry, muffled and virtually void of any decay.
这给了你两种完全相反的声音方法来使用同一种乐器——一种是开放的，圆形的，有丰富的维持，另一种是干燥的，沉闷的，几乎没有任何衰减。

“When played a certain way, this bass has an almost acoustic quality to it and, vice versa, when played in another way, it sounds big and reverberant.
“当以某种方式演奏时，这种低音几乎具有原声品质，反之亦然，当以另一种方式演奏时，它听起来大而混响。

This is something I really think we managed to capture with these two fundamentally different techniques,” comments Ulf Edlund.
这是我认为我们通过这两种根本不同的技术成功捕捉到的东西，”Ulf Edlund评论道。

THE PRESETS.
预设。

The included presets primarily hone in on round, warm and mid-centric settings, giving you a perfect palette of tones that can be traced back to anything from the rocking sound of Tom Petty and Neil Young to the more bare bones-type approach heard in songs by the likes of Emmylou Harris and Gillian Welch.
所包含的预设主要集中在圆形、温暖和中间中心的设置上，为您提供一个完美的调色板，可以追溯到任何东西，从汤姆·佩蒂和尼尔·杨的摇滚声到艾米露·哈里斯和吉莉安·韦尔奇等人在歌曲中听到的更赤裸裸的方式。

To further give you the option of easy external processing, clean direct input (DI) presets for both the ‘Finger’ and ‘Thumb Muted’ options are of course included.
为了进一步为您提供简单的外部处理选项，当然包括“手指”和“拇指静音”选项的干净直接输入(DI)预置。

THE MIDI.
MIDI。

The included MIDI library presents a repertoire of basic basslines inspired by Americana music of then and now.
包括MIDI库提出了一个基本低音曲目的灵感来自美国音乐的当时和现在。

Expect a fundamental collection that you can use the onboard MIDI features in EZbass to customize, slice and dice to fit your already written songs or use as a creative springboard for your yet-to-be-written pieces.
期望一个基本的集合，你可以使用板载MIDI功能在EZbass自定义，切片和骰子适合你已经写的歌曲或用作你尚未写的作品的创意跳板。
