I will be using this product for all sorts of tracks but the first one I wanted to try was a cover of Walk on the Wildside.
Dead easy right? Root and tenth starting on C. On the 4 beat, slide the C down to F (low part) and slide the E up to A (high part),… just as Herbie did on his two different basses. So far so good,… place the F and A in the next bar and then, at the 4 beat, slide down from a high C to E and up from F to C (low part) to repeat from the start. Great sound,… apart from the fact that halfway through the second slide “somebody steps on a canary”,… yes, there is a loud squawk (or two) shortly after the slide starts (digital artefacts or intermodulation products or maybe the midi just gets confused with too much going on at once).
I take it this is a Ghostbuster’s thing and I should not “cross the streams” i.e. can’t have two slides (one up and one down) happening at once?
I guess it will be easy enough to make two projects and mix them (in a different app) to get the twin bass effect but it was all going so well to start with that I thought I’d be able to make just the single project.
The single project also had the advantage that I could set the relative amplitudes of the the root and tenth in EZBass as it makes a huge difference to the resultant sound.
