  • EZBass' Tracker function can turn your guitar parts into basslines in seconds - but what if I play it some tech death? Watch as I feed it increasingly difficult guitar riffs to turn into basslines.

I also have a UA-cam channel myself where I teach music theory for guitar, but I occasionally make DAW recording videos, and Voicemeeter audio never lines up with the video. Plus, I can never figure out how to get a recording of my playing live guitar into the DAW without causing a nasty feedback loop. I was just wondering how you effortlessly get all of this stuff onto video? I've been going nuts trying to figure this stuff out!! Thanks man!

After you finish recording into Audio Tracker-Which do I chose? All the articulations gives me additional notes and other stuff. I just want the bass line.

    Been waiting a long time for EZ bass. Doesn't disappoint. What is the next challenge for Toontrack? EZ singer? That would be so cool. Making someone sing melodies and written lyrics that you can tweak. There've been attempts already (choirs singing syllables) It's not impossible. Imagine singing a guide example and replacing it with a top vocalist (Maybe compiled from various top session singers and a tweakable timbre.)

    Fresh banter fodder for Trey and Glenn 🥊
    Hmmm, I wonder if Trey can do a random number generated song with EZ Bass like he does with EZ Drummer? 🤔

    (in my opinion) the EZ line is NOT to, replace sounds or musicians. I just see it like a good songwriting tool. then record with real people :) In my experience drummers and bass players don't write so much songs ;) and now with corona I can send my ideas to my bass playing best friend in the world that I would never replace . great plugin !!!!
