Well : I am hoping for some sort of Bass accompaniment to go with EzKeys, maybe indeed based on already existing chordal schemes. It is possible to at least use the “Use browser midi” on a played midi bass line. I already imported a (badly played) midi bassline into EzKeys, then let one of the patterns loose on it, scrubbed the upper notes coming out of that and ended up with a bass line better than what i could have come up with. Problem is . It is geared towards keys so having bass patterns to “adjust” any played midi would already be a good start for EZ-Bass , maybe call it “Ez-Bass converter”.

Next would be to look into how Band In a box does it. A lot of midi-patterns (in a proprietary format) there in songs that have predefined bass lines to go with chords you can type in. Very complex program and nowhere near the usability of EzKeys, but very in depth musically speaking.
The truth lies somewhere in between and I hope the Toontrack guys can pull it of. I have also heard rumors (unconfirmed ) that Spectrasonics is looking into adding something to the next version of Trillian along these lines. For me that is the best sounding Bass VSTi out there, it would be unbeatable with something like Bass-Pattern Generator based on some Band In Box kind of algorithm, even without analyze capabilities. Maybe just reading in chords from a midi part of a different instrument or even from Melodyne?)

and please also a new logic pro and mac pro to go with that …yesterday
