MusicRadar has released 392 free bass guitar samples, a collection of loops previously featured on Computer Music magazine's cover DVD.

There are all kinds of ways to create a bass sound, but there are times when only the distinctive tone of a proper bass guitar will do.

The bass samples are split into themed folders. Some of them conform to a set tempo, while others are more freeform.

All the samples are supplied as 24-bit WAV files so can be imported directly into your DAW or sampler of choice. Because they're royalty-free, you're welcome to use the samples in your music in any way you like - all we ask is that you don't re-distribute them.
