If you try to draw in the slides on adjacent notes like that EZBass freaks out – you have to draw the slides on the D string first, then later in the MIDI track draw them onto your G string and then use the move tool to move those higher / lower notes back in line with the notes on the D string.

If you try to add a slide onto the MIDI grid where there are two options (two notes) EZBass isn’t clever enough yet to know which one you want it to slide to – even if you have it selected. It just throws it up or down an octave. But build it as a single note track and then move the power chord 5ths back in line with the roots and it works fine.

Thanks for the reply. I’m still having trouble accomplishing that, though.

Having trouble understanding what I wrote – or moving the notes?

I’d love an answer to this as well because I’m having the exact same problem.  I create a slide that works/sounds perfect.  Then I create the harmony to that slide and drag those notes in the MIDI editor/grid of EZ Bass to line up perfectly with the main notes that were already there, and it ends up playing just the top notes.
