  • EZ Bass is a powerful and very-user friendly addition to your VSTi collection, but there is a big issue with the EZX range that, previously, Toontrack have acknowledged, but not resolved. Has this limit on your creativity been fixed with EZ Bass and, if it has, will we see it in future releases of EZ Drummer and EZ Keys?

    Question: Would it be ridiculous (YES!) to run MULTIPLE COPIES of ESK and EZD and have the desired tempo for the parts of the arrangement as you see fit, until of course they FIX both products?

    Is it really hidden if it's in the manual? Am I the only person that reads manuals? Love EZBass, there is nothing that even comes close.

      Not at all hidden. It’s simply that most people don’t know about it.

    I'll definitely be getting it now.

    Really simple fix for this. Just open another instance of the plugin to play the bars in a different time signature.

    I'm looking to understand why I can't edit swing. Originally I was learning about swing in the new interface of EZ Drummer 3 - then I got into EZ Bass for the first time. Whereas with EZ Drummer 3 I seem to have the same controls (and they admonish one to set the swing resolution to the correct thing or no effect will happen [which is true if you just have 8th notes and try to add swung 16 resolution], despite knowing this, I still can't get the swing slider to even move. Its disabled. (Meanwhile I just noticed that I seem to have no presets...) Once I figured out that they call "follow" "scroll" and "auto-scroll" I was at least able to get to edit the bass notes during playback without being moved out of position.

    I love the EZ editors, but having to change Time Sigs in three places (your DAW as well as the EZ Drummer3 and EZ Bass editors) is a pain though.

    Hmm, I personally always use the DAW's MIDI Editor for EZDrummer. I tried the EZBass demo and I felt frustrated that different articulations were so complicated to use using the DAW's MIDI Editor, but I found it cumbersome to have to do everything in the plug-in.
    I really like Toontrack's plugins/sound libraries and on one hand I appreciate that they seek to make things as simple as possible but they have some really weird design quirks that end up pushing you into a particular workflow and making the plugins feel all-around inflexible. :/
    It is a good sign that they implemented time signature tracks and hopefully they add them into the other plugins.

      I have used Cubase's MIDI editor for years and am very comfortable with it. It depends if you want to use key switches or Toontracks rather... individual? .. approach and which one works better in your workflow.

    • @davidvierabarreras
      @davidvierabarreras Рік тому

      What??? The approach of Toontrack to write midi with his own editor IS AWESOME and very intuitive! Just you need to adapt of course... I hope in a future to see an EZ DAW with this integration

    • @theboofin
      @theboofin Рік тому +1

      The EZ Bass editor articulations are much more sophisticated than simple key switches. When you have a look at exported midi, the articulations are very complex.

      @@theboofin For sure! Imagine the entire EZ line integrated into a DAW, where you have a midi editor that reinterprets all the articulations, just like the EZbass internal editor does... Imagine that instead of writing on the EZdrummer, the EZpiano and the EZBass you could make it all unified. It would be great! I think they already have the technology to do it, in fact Superior Drummer 3 is practically a DAW by itself, which is only for drums, but you can use its internal plugins, mix channels, import audio, midi... I'm sure Toontrack, if they're not already working on this, they're at least thinking about it ;-)

    EZbass has great articulations, but they are a pig to operate in Studio One. Some require the articulation note before the play note and some require it after. Studio One has made this even harder by upgrading the way articulations are handled, giving users a lane specifically for articulations. But, it just makes things even worse for EZbass. The rule is, do your articulation editing in EZbass. And then export. The pain comes when you complete the editing inside EZbass, export the work, and then want to change something...OMG.
    Having said that EZbass rocks. The best bass vat by a country mile 😀😀😀😀

      Studio One was a good DAW until version 4. Version 5 made things much worse, they added a lot wanting to look like other DAWS, they burdened it a lot and unfortunately with a lot of failures and crashes. Pity !
