Michael MartonHey Michael,
I think maybe I understand since you mention SD3 and EZdrummer: The song track tempo and audio tracker tempo are not locked to each other. It’s the tempo in Audio Tracker which doesn’t follow your DAW, right?
The audio tracker is designed to track any audio source, not just those of the same tempo as what your DAW or song track is set to. This way you can track an entirely different bass line in its own tempo and then when you add it to your song track it’ll work properly with the song track tempo, with correct note values even though it was tracked in another tempo.
After finishing tracking or when adding audio, in the “Tracker Session Setup” dialog you’re asked to set the tempo. By default it is set to 120 BPM, but we should probably have a look at making EZbass select the “Current Tempo in [DAW]” by default when tracking through Audio Sender.
After closing the setup dialog, you can change the tempo of the track manually in the transport bar to match the source tempo better. This does not affect the tempo of the song track (the audio tracker transport bar is separate from the song track transport bar).
This makes sense. After setting the correct tempo in EZB it was better. Thanks for the explanation. It would be nice EZB would follow DAW when recording into audio sender. It would remove one step of possible confusion but I can understand the function of having a global default.

Michael MartonSo, you started out with 120 in Studio One, and had Follow Host enabled – so EZbass was also 120 BPM. Then you changed the BPM in Studio One to 103, but EZbass stayed at 120 BPM?
No I inserted EZB in a project that had a tempo of 103, EZB stayed at 120.

Michael MartonUnsure, I haven’t had a chance to test it with EZdrummer or SD3.

Michael MartonThanks for the reply, I’ll check it out later when I’m home.

Michael MartonSo where do I find the Toontracker audio sender plug in?
There is no manual so…
Operating system: Windows 10
It’s a separate VST that you put in an audio track then track into it.

Michael MartonI can’t drag an audio file from Studio One directly into EZBass either. Haven’t tried the export then re-drag to the interface yet. Would be awesome to be able to do this from within the DAW.

Michael MartonThanks! I don’t think I’m using much compression on the piano but I’ll check. Bass could be turned up a bit, hmm ok I’ll look at that. Great input!

Michael MartonPlease feel free to critique! Personally I think the vocals may be a bit too loud, too much verb in places? Dunno, I sat on it for a while (too long) and just wanted it done so it may need some “refining” shall we say…

Michael Marton So if I have a whole song laid out in EZKeys with all the key changes etc. done and I highlight and drag into the my favorites folder it will save it as is and if I close down the instrument and start it up again, I can drag the aforementioned saved midi back in complete? That would be great, I didn’t know it could already do this.
Thanks!
p.s. still want more patterns

Michael MartonOh, and please let it save patterns in the instrument!!!

Michael MartonExactly, that’s me, a guitar guy who loves EZKeys for piano and key parts. I’m just finishing a tune with it and it’s awesome, hence my original post. Want more patterns!!!! Love this instrument!!!!
