Henrik, thank you for the reply. I’ve had this problem with scaling since EZBass was installed. Before responding to your comments I ran things again. There was a Windows update applied to my computer last night. I now can scale the EZBass window in plug-in mode. I did nothing to change any parameters!

Appears to be working at the moment. If that changes, I’ll post. If not, thanks for your help.

Thanks for the info. I could look into Windows settings as you suggest. However, I also have EZKeys and have no problem with scaling either standalone or plug-in. Appreciate the comments.

Scott, thank you for the response. I apologize for the tone of my previous post – my frustration level got the best of me. Enough said.

When I purchased EZBass the downloaded and installed version was 1.0.0 and the upgrade was downloaded and installed with version 1.0.5.

That says I should be current.

I’ve tried what you suggested in standalone mode and that did not work. I’ve tried DPI scaling, using the VIEW tab to set to default, minimize and tried to manipulate SIZE and SCALE on the tab. Nothing seems to work.

Have other users reported this issue or have I stumbled on an “undocumented feature”. My system is Windows 10. Any other suggestions would be helpful.

I wanted to tag onto my last post. I don’t expect immediate replies to problems, issues, how to do this or that in EZBass. In a previous life, I spent 20 + years in software development. I can tell you that in my environment, customer support did not leave an issue out there for 4 or more days without a response- pretty poor support. I  sent a direct post to ‘customer support’  supposedly generated a ticket  number but have not had any reply from the Vendor-Toontracks.

As a last note, I spent $149.00 for  EZBass to add to my EZKeys and Studio One 5 set-up as stated in the earlier post. The only reason I bought EZBass was so I could use it to generate bass lines from what I compose in EZKeys, I play keys, guitar and bass among other instruments, so I can write and play bass lines. I didn’t need to buy EZBass. EZBass was going to make my job easier and be a no brainer.

As of right now, I cannot use EZBass and no sign of  customer support.

Thanks Brad. I think the Nektar LX88+ is going to be great for me in this environment. I’m currently using the control surface – Have had some success but it’s all very trial and error.  Once I’ve got a handle on all the components in my set-up, hopefully I can be productive. Thanks again!!

Thanks for the follow-up. I am continuing to work with not only the Toontracks products(EZKeys and EZBass), but Studio One as well. Previously, I had been using hardware based solutions (synths,digital pianos and workstations). I decided to switch to software based production. Now, also, using a Nektar LX88+ Midi-Controller so I’m wrestling with learning curves with multiple products across vendor lines at the same time.I appreciate your quick turn-a-round on my questions and issues.

I Found the Enable DPI Scaling Button in EZKeys. That solves the scaling issue.

Thanks for the reply. I’ll continue to explore. I’m still Curious about the size of EZKeys when launched as plug-in in studio One 5. Is  there a ‘scaling’ option somewhere to increase the size. Thanks for your help.

Hello, this is a follow up to my previous post about EZKeys. Here’s where I’m at now. Purchased EZKeys and realized it would not work for me as a DAW.

1)So, I purchased Studio One 5. 2)Then, because of your integration between products, 3) I purchased EZBass. The main reason was so I could record piano in EZKeys, drop it into EZBass to generate bass parts.

So, after watching various videos about EZKeys and EZbass I start trying to use them together. They don’t seem to play the piano and bass at the same time unless I’m not using the app correctly. The videos I watched did not talk about the set-up. But in order to get EZKeys and EZBass to work with your DAW they talk about the’ SYNC TO HOST’ button which I don’t have. because these are standalone apps if I understand things correctly(even though they show up as plug-ins in Studio one). Therefore, you don’t get syncing with a host DAW or Midi In /Midi out functions.

Can they not be used together without a DAW to accomplsish what I want?

Also, If I launch EZKeys inside Studio One it renders the app so small, it’s almost useless. Please advise if possible.

[Stevet88keys]

Yes,  purchased EZKeys first. Then purchased studio one 5. I can reinstall ezkeys to see if that does it. Thanks for your timely response.

Thank you Scott for you’re reply. That confirms my fears. I was hoping that EZKEYs would be my “DAW”.
