Love toontrack, love riffs beards and gear, and love darkglass gear but the Dingwall/darkglass tone is getting played out imo. Not crapping on anyone - if you dig it go for it!!! Just my 2 cents. Cheers
@@Kaloan91 is that even with the audio tracker? It said on the website the lowest it goes is A0 so how do you get it to the lower tuning, pitch shifter? i got djinnbass in the meantime but i really have no idea how to program midi bass lines so the audio tracker on EZbass seems ideal!
you need the Metal expansion to go below A0. The Tracker will make 80% of the bassline (it's not perfect unless the bassline is rather simple) and then you click on a yellow botton called something like "insert MIDI song" (bottom right corner of the tracker tab) so that you can then make the lasts tweaks on the Grid tab which is very easy to use (adding notes, hammer-on, etc)
@@Kaloan91 aww man that’s so frustrating, i got djinnbass cause. thought A0 was the lowest. I’ll probably look into getting it now if that’s the case. I doubt my bass lines will be anything to complex, i haven’t been going too technical on my songs. Out of interest do you know the lowest tuning? The lowest i go to is drop F
Ezbass is a MIDI editor. If you’re confused, Look into ezbass reviews. not reviews of ezbass packs. It’s a great tool with lots of capabilities. Just like ez/superior drummer
@@DJakeSt Yeah, looked into more looks good especially seeing as I don't play bass. However there is no trial of the product, so, I'm hesitant to part with the money as I downloaded the trial for EZdrummer2 and it never showed up in Protools :(
@@vaughanmacegan4012 understandable. It's still fairly new. So maybe wait for it to go on sale or for them to come out with more expansion packs to justify the purchase. I'd still rather just plug a real bass into my interface & record that way. But I can understand the appeal behind the "EZ" aspect
I still like playing and recording my bass tracks, but I got EZ Bass thinking it would be easier to create a much better-sounding DI track than my crappy Squier bass, but the EZ Bass live tracking feature is atrocious. It fumbles even very basic bass lines for me, and then I have to spend way too much time fixing in MIDI, even after constantly tweaking the threshold settings. I'm not distorting my DI going into EZ bass in any way. I have a Focusrite i2i that records my guitars just fine. Anybody else encounter this?
I thought I was the only one experiencing that! I've tried playing simple "basslines" on my guitar and having EZBass track it and it still messes it up. Trey from Gear Gods did a demo of it and he had it working perfectly. It is so frustrating.
@@XiyuYang nonono. I meant in all the demos it just seems like the midi is all at 127. I have the core EZBass library and it sounds incredible running it through metal bass processing. much better than this i think.
@@BrendanHengle i bought it and man I couldn't agree more. Even the demos on Toontracks channel sound robotic. It sounds amazing when you write your own bass lines though.
Toontrack really needs to do another songwriting stream like the Devin Townsend one a few years back.
The Ezbas is awesome ! Already save me more than once ! For a quick recording like a demo is perfect !
beautiful sound!!! especially from a guitarist
Damn sounds sick
I play in drop f and drop E, will this go an octave lower that F0 and E0?
A0 is the lowest unfortunately -.- no proper midi vsti below A
@@Balesz36 djinnbass and impact studios bass go to double drop C. Also euro bass and the two bass libraries from solemn tones
Is it me or does that guitar sound slightly out of tune (flat) at some points when played against the midi bass parts?
How to tunning in drop A? or costum strings tunning?
Fluff thank you wow
As an owner of a Dingwall, the samples sound too compressed.
Ryan, you should demo a NG5
I would love to see a few more bass guitar reviews on this channel.
Can that support drop G because the regular one when i hit those heavy notes wont hit
I might have missed it but which kit/preset did you use for this track?
Love toontrack, love riffs beards and gear, and love darkglass gear but the Dingwall/darkglass tone is getting played out imo.
Not crapping on anyone - if you dig it go for it!!! Just my 2 cents.

This vs ample sound metal ray 5?
can you tune down to drop g#?
yes, it does. I've used it in songs with that specific tuning and sounds very good

@@w0rmholes it goes all the way down to Eb0
What was your tuning for this track?
So, this isn't a tool add add bass lines to your track? Is it just a Bass Amp tool that gives you tones to add to a DI track?

It works perfectly if done right...you might have to make a few tweaks, but the editor on ezbass is amazing once you learn it.
EZ bass isn’t ez at all... it’s easier to just play the bass and edit the DI..
🤔🤔🤔
I thought about getting a program like that. Until i heard what it sounds like LOL
Or just buy a bass and track it as you would a guitar.
As much as I want to love it, it just sounds like garbage lmao. The clanky characteristics of it are nice but the samples sound so robotic.
Step up your programming chop bruh, you just described user error
@@XiyuYang nonono. I meant in all the demos it just seems like the midi is all at 127. I have the core EZBass library and it sounds incredible running it through metal bass processing. much better than this i think.
Yeah with proper programming it sounds insanely real. These are bad representations of how it can sound.
