For anyone who doesn't know: under "settings" you can select multi-out which puts the DI, Distortion, and Sub bass on separate outs.

Great video! I can see this being great for mixing and reinforcement as well as replacement.I love the addition of the wet/dry mix. I can imagine you could get pretty creative with that for layering midi onto a pre-recorded bass line to add thickness and punch in a mix situation, what do you reckon? Keep up the good work sir!

Your mix is great . You made EzBass sound really good in it. What most beginners don't know is that you have to know how to mix down in order to get a quality sound. You wont get this out of the box. EZbass is just part of the whole. I would be more interested in a , "how to make your mixes sound like this" video . Everything from the drums to guitars. Peace.

I feel like this is going to turn into a new situation where people are building their own AI bands. One could use Jamstix as a drum brain to drive Superior Drummer, then toss in EZBass and EZKeys then if you're a guitarist, all you need then is a vocalist (or vice versa). That's what I'm doing now and lets just say I'm pretty stoked about how legit the new material is going to sound. EZBass and Jamstix together is like having a pretty kickass rhythm section at your disposal.

I could physically play whatever i wrote inside my daw using this plug in and then drop the midi into some notation software for later. good god that sounds like heaven

@jewishsing4524 3 жыл бұрын
That is pretty amazing for a midi instrument that is basicly a box of sound puzzle that you just squeeze in... but this is good for metal hard rock and pretty simple stuff... try using this for a Jazz ray Brown track or even a simple Mccartney basse line.... The melodic isnt quite there yet... but it sure is a nice thing to play with. If all you want is your base to teamp up with a drum and play that root and shit.... if you want a complex emotional basseline... it isnt there... well you can use it to compose a baseline with a midi keyboard i guess and it would do the trick
