Today we check out the new Toontrack EZ Bass. We'll also use EZ Drummer 2 and EZ Keys. In my opinion, those are the best sounding and easiest tools to create music!

Great video Dave. The production process is rarely shown with such clarity and the multiple ways makes it that much more valuable. Thanks.
Absolutely the best review Ive seen. Love to see more in depth tutorials from you!
Thanks very much for that 3-instrument tutorial - I'm totally new to EZ and your video really helped me understand the instruments and options better
Truly appreciate your time putting this together. I own EZKeys and Drummer and was on the fence about Bass but this video has nudged me closer to the edge of a purchase.
I was on the fence, too, until I watched this last week. Now I'm waiting for the sales!

Now I want to discover! Thanks for this great video.
Best review of it so far!
Great demo!
Great tutorial, thank you for that. Though I work since months with this tools, I learned a lot today!!
David, best review/overview of these 3 apps so far! I have all of them, and this is the first tut I've see (including from ToonTrack) where someone actually showed me the interoperability. Very nice. Greatly appreciated! Will help me Tons!!! Keep up the Good Work! --blessings to you, my friend.
Wow man, thank you!!
Well done ,great review and demo...
Thanks for reviewing this I was wondering. Just getting my little 9x10x7 studio treated . Its all new to me !
I'm a bass player and I use EZDrummer and EZKeys. I agree with your "discovery approach".
thanks for the video . this is awesome
LOVE IT!!!
Great video--learned a lot!
Fantastic video...I have EZKeys and EZDrummer....and am thinking about EZBass. I have learned so much about the two I have just by watching this video. Thank you.
great tutorial!
Excellent, thanks
thanks very helpful
Great video editing, lighting, shots, and audio.
Thank you bro!
David Wallimann Welcome!!!
Agreed! I have all 3 and they are amazing!! All I do is pick a random drum groove and its off to the races!
Yeah!!
It's awesome!
Nice way of showing these tools at work - good job. Man, I wish I could have used these kind of things when I was a kid, but we had to learn the hard way in the 70's with a record player, and amp and a guitar. Just bought Superior Drummer, and I play a bit of keys, bass and guitar is my main, but I want the keys and bass plugins - so cheers for the demo - twas great.
Awesome
Nice video!
Are you using Reaper as your DAW? And which EZ Drummer “sounds” are you creating with?
I’ve EZ Drummer II, and EZ Mix as well, and just added EZ Bass, and it’s a blast! They’re all stellar, actually.
I’ve so many EZ Drummer “sound packs” and with EZ Mix and EZ Bass they all work seamlessly together and has been the best “bang for the buck” purchases I’ve made in a long while.
Such great platforms for the Home Studio Musician too!
Thanks again for the video! ✌🏼
How Cool. I own both & love them. They have nailed the rapid song writing brick walls by creating attractive software that works well, preserves the necessary "feel" for songs that most of the tools out there lack. If I set up a track with a Superior Drummer 3 or EZD 2 with ezbass I can audition so many combinations without breaking stride. I don't have to hit stop or anything I can change stuff out, browsing through bass tracks on the fly. You can switch every 2 beats if you want or anytime you want & it figures out when to hand off and does so seamlessly. Same with EZ keys. But I got you with a search for "ezmix 2" because it's on sale & I'm trying to figure out if it's got midi packs with it or just an effects unit with multitrack?
I have to buy these…. Thanks
Hi Dave... how do u get all three instrument windows on same page?
🙏 It would be nice to take part of a process of instrumentation that starts with an original part on guitar or piano. To se how you ”play” the bass and drums as to a song that you made on your main instrument. I never use a premade drumbeat to write a song. But I find it quite difficult to have the ezdrummer play the way I whant on my songs. But then Im not a drummer 🤓 and Im not much of a base player either now considering the ezbass.
The ONLY product I Don't have from Toontrack is the EZBass! That'll change right now lmao! I love their stuff, it's so good and intuitive!
I took my guitar audio-and generated a bass line-spent the next few hours taking away ungodly subharmonic tones and slaps. I then came back to your video-ok-seems a little bit clearer, but a bass line generated from a guitar audio file was a major headache-unless I am doing something wrong. Still, your video is the best comprehensive take on using both EZ Bass and EZ Drummer.
Nice
Let me first say that I truly like the EZ software, but I do think that the EzKeys is basically just advanced Dance-Ejay, where you really don't have any creative control to the level where I'd like it, so I use the instruments mainly as normal instruments - not using the builder/self-writing parts of the EZ libraries (Don't have keys, but I have superior drummer and Ez Bass)
Hello, how to setup pitchbend wheel. Default is 2 tones over midi keyboard.
Cool 😎
geeenial
Jeeeeez dave, for a video thats meant to show how good ez bass is, you sure did a good video on showing the capabilities of ez keys........ lmao
I remember a song called Dream Weaver back in the late 70's but I forgot who wrote it.
Gary Wright
Is there anywhere I can get a discount on ezbass
When you dropped the left hand only keyboard midi in to inform the bass line, I laughed my @$$ off. Toontrack is definitely a witch.
I have all three. I have worked with them since ezbass came out. I havent even scratched the surface. They are awesome together!
it's not good or not
or you are a bassist or not
that's all
i play bass guitar
next :)
can we use ez bass triggered by midi keyboard without using ezkeyz
Yep!
David Wallimann thnx for quick respond 🤘👍
The problem with all the stuff besides drums, is your trying to write a song using IT, but what if you have a song written already, what good is any of this stuff? I found that i can never find a pattern that fits my feel, so either i force it to fit toontracks stuff, or I dont record it. I think the benfit of this stuff is way overblown
Don't use patterns. Simple as that.
@@nichttuntun3364 Are you able to play your own patterns, while still using the autchord function? A rhythm of one noted, the whole point of a virtual guitar is for it to play itself.
@@waltergibbons422 can't answer that, as I'm not using it, as a keyboardist I never use pattern or auto function. I'm spending a lot of time learning left hand rhythms and 2 hand grooves. It is so much fun and you learn a lot about composition also.
In general I'm completely annoyed by Toontrack. You are never able to play like a real bass with EZ Bass as they simply didn't sample the higher register notes on all strings. What a letdown for such an expensive instrument. Bringing out a new library all 3 months for another 75 euro is also a joke for me. Seems to be more important than getting things right from beginning.
I'm only using Electric Bass from Steinberg now, it's a great value and everything and more was sampled here. The playability is awesome.
EZ bass only is good for me to track badly recorded basses to get the midi notes to exchange them within a mixing session. As you can do that with other tools too, I wouldn't buy it again.
@@nichttuntun3364 actualy im replying in wrong thread, i thought i was replying in thread on native instruments... lol. EZ bass is not very good, sorry to say. I was a big fan after the ez drummer stuff came out, but then ez piano and ez bass do not offer the same editing ability, in order to get something decent out of either, you would need eery single add one pack they offer, they really know how to charge. Im a fan but drums and superior drummer is what they do best.
@@waltergibbons422 thanks, no problem :)
Yeah feel the same but so annoyed by them that I won't use any of their stuff in the future. It was a one shot try with EZ Bass and I missed :)
We need ez808
Where are you?
Right now on my couch, going through comments. :)
Those ear rings didn´t sound good at all.
Thank you.
