Solemn Tones Kraken Hybrid Bass vs Djinnbass

Comparing Solemn Tones' Kraken Hybrid Bass against SubMission Audio's Djinnbass. Processed both using the same Neural DSP Parallax preset, and gain matched the DIs because Djinnbass is much louder than Kraken Hybrid.
Swift mode was NOT used on Kraken Hybrid (I didn't take the screenshot), but I did turn on "human error" in the play menu.

Djinn just sounds fucking grating to my ears. Like there's a cocked wah on it.

I'm inclined to agree, tbh I was still figuring out how to get a good bass tone and the tones I was getting then were super bright and distorted. Might do an updated bass VSTi comparison at some point bc I've gotten much better at finding tones since 2020.

Do you prefer the djinnbass to the loki bass 2 ?

[@GoodCarpet]

I don't have Loki Bass 2 unfortunately.

[@GoodCarpet]

Sorry for the late reply, but I ended up buying Loki Bass 2, and I personally prefer Loki now. Djinnbass does have some advantages, like the built-in tones being much better on Djinnbass than on Loki and the articulations being sampled with more detail, but I like Loki because it's much more light on CPU/RAM and it loads significantly faster, while also having more articulations such as slap and finger picking. I don't think you can go wrong with either though. I might do a video doing an in-depth comparison of the features of a few Dingwall samplers soon.
