The deal
$29 at Loot Audio (down from $119). No coupon needed. Deal ends August 16, 2026.
What it is
Virtual Bassist: Slap is an electric bass plugin from ujam built around a modeled Stingray-style bass with an active pickup, tuned specifically for slap and finger playing. Feed it chords and MIDI patterns and it generates full, groove-based bass performances, or switch to Instrument Mode to play every articulation yourself, including dead notes, slides, and full stops. It's the slap-focused companion to ujam's plectrum-based Virtual Bassist ROWDY.
Who it's for
Producers working in Pop, Funk, Jazz, and Rock who need convincing electric bass without hiring a session player or programming every note by hand. It suits anyone who wants a bassline that reacts naturally to chord changes and tempo, from beatmakers sketching ideas to composers finishing full arrangements.
