  • 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.

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.

    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.)
