Toontrack; you've just brought back that feeling of being a kid again and excited about Christmas day approaching.
Thanks, we're happy to hear that! :)
Exactly
🥳🎄🎁🎸
I'm a bass player and I approve of this video
As a bass player myself I can see this an an excellent tool for finding new grooves and playing styles to enhance what we in the band are already composing. This is a fantastic product.
Exactly.
Aidan, I agree this is an excellent tool! I don't feel threatened by it as a bass player. I am still waiting for an offering though like Vocaloid by YAMAHA.
Man, I'm a Bass player, and I already bought EZDrummer3, and I am sitting here in awe over EZBass, even tho I would rather play it, this as a tool for creating bass lines is just awesome in itself.
I'm using it now and it´s amazing. I already saw something else I think would level up the worjflow (if it's not that it is already there and don't know how to use it) It would be the ability to take over the chord track and the arrange track of the daw, so I don't have to do it all over again as I always put the chords and the arrangement in my cubase session for each song, so it would save me tons of time
Unreal. Toontrack does it once again. This could easily be called Superior Bassist with the feature set.
TheReverendAssclown, yeah, and this comment might help convince them to increase the price! That would be awesome.
@@Dr.Jekyll lol true, but it's so early to go for superior bassist, it took them what 10, 11 years for SD ? with today's technology maybe 3 years and we might get SB :D
Wombat, everything you said is true. My comment is still true, as well. Although highly unlikely, Toontrack might say, “Gee, people are very impressed and think this should be priced higher. We haven’t released the price yet. Let’s add $100. Anything is possible.
Prominy is pretty good, but this has the finger style option, and seems very intuitive, as far as workflow.
As a guitarist with very small hands that also have mild arthritis, I really struggle to record great bass tracks for my songs. To be able to drop-in a sloppy bass track audio file and have it converted to a perfectly played EZBass file is going to be a game-changer for my music.
Dead.Skin.Mask, no one said anything about “perfectly.”
@@Dr.Jekyll Well... when its MIDI you can edit it ;)
Toontrack, I reckon so, pardner. I reckon so.🤠
@@Dr.Jekyll I meant 'perfectly' after editing.
Dead.Skin.Mask well if it’s played sloppy it’ll have a sloppy feel but yea you could sync with drums OR if arthritis is your issue, you could keep your finger on one note, play that one note for every note in the song with rhythm and feel. Then manually change the notes once it’s midi.
The bass players reign of terror is finally over!
lol
I rarely like comments. But this one really cracked me up for some reason
Haha
Lolz
I'm excited about all these new features but the most important thing is that it sounds really authentic and as alive as it is possible at the moment. There are a lot of great bass VSTs and libraries out there (my favourite so far were Scarbee Rickenbacker for Kontakt and Spectrasonics Trillian), but this one is really amazing in terms of details and nuances the bass has while playing live. Great job, Toontrack! My life as a composer basically started with your EZkeys software and you have never disappointed.
I've been looking for something like EZBass for YEARS - in terms of audio quality, features and easy to use interface - and now I'm so excited it's just around the corner! Nowadays I can't see myself writing songs without EZD and EZMix, and it seems EZB will be my new addiction :)
yeah same
This looks & sounds amazing. I'm really looking forward this. This is another example of why you guys are the best in the business.
Finally!!! A great bass library with an intuitive own interface to create slides and hammer with no need of annoying CC, keyswitches, etc. Excellent! Toontrack has been creating an independent midi editor for his products, maybe in a couple of years they will surprise us with a DAW :-D hahahaha. Greetings and excellent piece of art! Saludos desde CUBA
Man you guys have really out done yourselves on this one. Can't wait for the release!
Toontrack you guys are amazing! The tech behind this software and attention to detail is superb. As a bass player myself I am seriously loving this software and I can't wait to buy on day 1 for sure. I can't wait to see what else you guys come up with. With every new installment you guys just get better and better. Keep it up!
Thanks! Happy to hear!
The interface is a killer and the huge amount of controls you can have over every note is what is lacking in other bass plugins. I hope they can add the ability to sample or load in live bass in the future. I can't wait to buy this one. Pretty awesome.
Brilliant work, guys. This will change a lot. Can't wait.
This is a game changer! Thanks Toontrack for making our job so EZ!
Merci beaucoup pour cet ami bassiste tant attendu... magnifique job !!!
My impressions of Ezbass after a few days of having purchased it: The sounds that come out of it are absolutely gorgeous. This is not emulated sound, it works with real audio samples and the bass articulations are just on point. As far as the interface, this is where things get a little not so good. After a bit you get the idea of what the tabs are about but when it comes to have the plugin talk to and interact with a host application ( DAW ), it gets messy. The first thing they have to fix is the playback function when using a host. If you for example press the play button within Ezbass, it will play whatever you are working on within it's interface, then out of mere habit ( because those habits makes us more productive ) you press the space bar to stop it, what happens is the DAW ( I use us Logic btw ) starts playing and Ezbass continues to play as well ( doesn't stop ) completely out of sync. Now you have two completely different playheads and sounds operating out of sync. That is very annoying, I have worked with other plugins like this one and the space bar simply synchronises both, the host and the plugin so that the experience is seamless and your workflow just flows. With Ezbass, you have to stop and figure out wth is going on and then fix it. That is a waste of productive time. There are commands within Ezbass, but if you try to assign the space bar to its playback function the plugin tells you that the command is in use, no surprise, Logic is using it, so you must have two different playback commands in your head and think about it before you hit any key. What I use a lot is the Tracker tab, because I want to create my own bass lines recording my guitar. This his took me a while to figure it out, now I kind of got the idea of how this feature works. It does a pretty decent job. One thing I would suggest is that they incorporate a punch in function so that if for some reason I want to repeat a bar or whatever without having to do it form scratch I could punch in-out. That option is not available, and if you try to record on top of your previous performance, it just gets deleted, like destructive behaviour. The only way to achieve what I mentioned is by assigning the part to the nimdi song area and then creating a new tracking session. Or at least that's what worked for me. So as you can see is not that straight forward and these are things you have to figure out messing around with the plugin. I don't really use this plugin for using automatically created bass lines, but I did try once to use this feature just to see it's capabilities. The window where you explore the groove is kind of messy, but I guess you can get used to it. What I found weird is that you can't write extended chords in the plugin. The only chords allowed to be presented in the song area are natural major or minor chords. I'm not that advance with music theory but to my understanding if I use extended chords, that could potentially change the complexity of the bass line used. The other thing about the plugin is it eats a ton of CPU. power. I've gotten my whole Logic session completely frozen when using Ezbass to the point that I had to force the DAW to quit and lost all my pre-recorded bass lines. Right now I'm on a session where every single time I click on the Options tab ( using tracker ) my computer get frozen. Even when I open Ezbass as a standalone unit. Literally, I touch the Option tab with my mouse and my computer crashes. It is very frustrating, I spend so much time watching that Apple little circle showing me how all is frozen. The other big turnoff is the customer support. I sent them a message about three days ago and the do not respond. And that is really not good. So, go figure. Do I recommend this plugin?, yes if you are patient and are willing to put up with inconsistencies like the ones I mentioned before. Now, if you can make it work you will not be disappointed by the quality sound of your bass. The plugin has potential and I really hope the put the work on improving the end user experience. Oh, and I hope they answer my emails too.
Hi, Thanks for your feedback and suggestions! We'll forward it to our development team.
If "Follow Host" is activated in EZbass pressing the Space bar starts/stops both your DAW and the Song Track in EZbass all synced up. To control *only* the Song Track in the EZbass plugin window you either press Play in EZbass or opt+Space both for playing and stopping.
Regarding the support it sounds odd you haven't heard back and we apologize for that. Our support usually responds within 24 business hours. Please check your spam folder or try again to contact them via the "Contact Support" button at the bottom of any FAQ at toontrack.com/faq
That is waaaaay more sick than I expected
Looks incredible, I can’t wait!!!
Congrats guys with absolutely amazing product!!! ❤
This is going to be a "serious add" to my Toontrack toolbox....can't wait to get my hands on this!!!
Great work! Sounds amazing! Can't wait to try it out!
Wow, this looks amazing. I REALLY wish they could create & implement these type features and deep articulation controls on a Horns product for Pop/R&B/Rock productions. But I doubt there'd be enough money/interest for the work it would take to create that. As someone who can play bass and records it myself, I'll prob never buy this product, but man do I applaud Toontrack for their constant evolution.
Samples sounds awesome (TT Superior-like), as a keyboard/e-drummer/songwriter - I'm SO glad to see this new product from Toontrack.. Bass' tracks always took me longest to edit. Every PT-owner knows midi-editing is *bleeeeeeb-up*! Thanks again TT.
I want EZ Acoustic Guitar, EZ Electric Guitar.
Ahwan Mishra I second that!!! ❤️🎶
Eagerly awaiting! Damn you Toontrack for making awesome products :D this will help my songwriting/recording so so much
This was worth the wait. Totally brilliant stuff!
wow. nice work from toontrack.
can't wait to here more audio demos.
Wow, just wow!! Can't wait for this!!!
I cannot wait to dive into this. This could could elevate so many projects.
Good grief. You can’t show this and expect us to wait until 19 May. Come on it looks perfectly ready and by 19 May the world will hopefully be back to normal (fingers crossed) and we won’t have as much time with this beautiful beast. Please fast forward the date and give all of us some happiness in this awful awful time 🙏
^^
I agree... I´m pacing nervously around the house
@@viktornordstrom1685 LOL!!!
back to normal next month??? forget it^^
but u r right...they should release it earlier "hard times blabla here it is"...its still a product we pay for and not a gift so...xdd mayby it happens...but i dont think so
Yep I agree!
Amazing ! Congratulation to TOONTRACK ! Can't wait to get it !!!
wow, super cool video introduction to this new product :D
I know it's been out 3 years but I just gave this a shot and I'm quite impressed. I see a use for this, just from a production standpoint. I can still play my bass parts but now I can nail that sound quickly. Next sale... I'm there...
I would like to congratulate the creators of toontrack !!!! You combine technology with intelligence. I am a musician and sound engineer, I have been using your products for some time. I work with EZ Drummer and EZkeys and I am impressed with the variety and quality of their products. Certainly, Ezbass is coming to make this company so professional and make the musical universe even more complete. Congratulations one more time!!!! We look forward to this new project with guaranteed success.
Thanks! Happy to be a part of your music making!
Game changer right here. Well done @Toontrack!!!
Wow, this does SO much more than I thought it was going to do. I wasn't planning on getting it and just continue with my average bass playing for recording, but I may have just changed my mind.
Thanks! Happy to hear 😊
This is seriously the best bass VSTi I've ever seen before. Toontrack you are definitely the best company this year. Great job. I'm waiting for May 19. Thanks, guys!
Thanks Stefano!
@@toontrack Will there the possibility to export midi file (such as EzKeys and other) to our Daw? In that case, the midi file will conserve the midi CC data?
Just because I would like to double my bass note, with the same grooves and expressions.Thanks.
There are a tonne of great virtual bass instruments out there but this looks next level. Well done guys.
Holy shit....when i saw the promo a while ago, i said to myself,..."oh, another bas sim". But you just took things to a different level.
I am ready to preorder. I love Superior 3, and this bass seems like the perfect match.
Je suis impatient de le voir fonctionner !! Bravo à toute l'équipe Toontrack !!!
i love yoiu guys so much. this is what has been preventign me for finishing my songs. i cannot wait to get my hands on it.
Should have called it superior bass! What a product, I think I will be buying, thanks guys
I'm super stoked for this. For me, this will be my bass player, but, when I do work with bassists I'll be able to give them a guide and let them alter it to their taste.
in the background deep in my head, i was waiting for this accurate composition/presentation - tool - hurry up ladies & gentlemen lets rock ! - we can awaiting a introduction price ? - sooo goood work, thx a lot stay safe & see you back again May 19.
I'm blown away ! You guys did it once again !
Can we hope for some of these wonderful options in an hypothetic EZkeys 2 with a song editor like EZBass / EZ/Superior Drummer and different possibilities of chord progressions like scaler/captain chords type of softwares? Please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please, please... I promise I'll be a good boy !
stunning demo, cant wait for 19 may now!!
Love EZ Drummer and EZ Keys, definitely getting this as well.
This is unbelievable. So cool!
Great Video... congrats!
Thank you very much for this Production. Impressive!!! 💫🎯☘️
Guys! What an amazing tool! I’m a songwriter also, guitarist. It’s hard to find a good bass sound or someone can reproduce what is in our minds. This is become a must have tool for people like me. Thanks for this!! Such an amazing job!
Thanks!
Toontrack is at it again! Im a lifelong fan and customer!

´Tis is freaking AWESOME! I so so want this!!!
There was a rumor that Toontrack released an EZSinger plug-in but discontinued it because of a bug where it kept trying to sleep with your girlfriend.
But aren't all band singers EZ ? 😏
I feel attacked
A big game changer lots of fun and good learning tool simply the best for composing
seems very well thought out!
I find the Audio tracker in EZ bass is a real game changer..awesome product
Game Changer!!! Can't wait.
Crazy…Amazing …just Toontrack …A must have 🎸🎸🧨🏋️🧨🎸🎸

Michael Sanfilipp!!!! I come again to you to give the congratulations to engineers and professionals who work hard always looking to the future. I use the software elaborated by you guys and I'm amazed by so much intelligence. I would ask you to ask for a favor so that you can create an EZ guitar!!!!! For it is only what is left to further brighten the genius of its products. I know that this will also exceed expectations, because they are excellent professionals. Thank you for so much dedication, as they help us in our walk through the composition!!!!!
Do I need to be ashamed at the age of 57 and literally counting the days down until this is released??? I'll take it and every bloody expansion pack please.....
Nothing to be ashamed of at all! :)
no sir i’m 60 and waiting
Hehe, I'm 63 two days before release :)
I'm not ashamed of that being 62, brother.
I just wanted to jump in on this thread so I could be the "young" guy for once, at 47.
Toontrack is amazing...is my 99 time seeing this video aaarrggg....I want a time machine for may 19!!! hahahha I will make a review as soon as possible I can afford it! hahahaha Viva Cuba!
Thanks for creating this software :)

Sounds pretty good to me. Great for sending mock-ups to my Bass player so he/ she knows what I'm looking for. I'll include this on my beat making tutorials on udemy.
the Audio Tracker is gonna save me a ton of time. That alone is worth the price of this
Thanks toontrack😁😁
Frothing over this! Can’t wait!
Woah! amazing, I want this
Brilliant!
Amazing tool! I would love to see EZ Bass playing variation on playing just the notes from the chords instead of the scale.
Amazing! Can’t wait to try it. PS: The last demo is from Custom Shop Ezx
LOVE YOUR PRODUCTS! WE NEED EZ SINGER!
Looking forward to hearing it for a Country rock tune
Wooow I Need this !
Wow amazing product! This kind of work flow makes me so easy to write basslines. Hope there will be better conjunction among products of EZ lines to make patterns become more musical and more fascinating. Hope Toontrack will release EZGuitar soon and EZComposer maybe :v
