Thanks guys. I'm pleased to hear the bass might be easier fretting - wise. Stretching could be an issue but I will be able to take it in small chunks I guess. Not like playing for 90 mins without a break. I doubt I will be summoned by Mr Beck to replace her anytime soon so will stick to...

Thanks Chili. Yeah I'm getting a bit lost in tech here. I will try the Proteus with the Roland when I get back. Will that plug - in work with Macs all right? I suspect there must be a mac version somewhere but I haven't found it yet. The link from your thread only says windows I am likely to...

Man, this is a complicated business when you don't know what you're doing :eek: Am I right in believing the software option from Midi Guitar from Jam Audio might do the trick for me? I won't be able to try it until next week as I'm away from home until Monday.

Hi. The Roland HP 504 is the piano I have. I thought about MIDI after buying the 2i2 but the software I'm talking about should work after the interface has done it's ermm interfacing should it not? If I was to plug eg a keyboard into the computer would I need it to go through the interface...

A quick update to all interested. I'm battling on with Logic Pro X and getting there slowly buy hopefully surely. I haven't solved my bass problem yet but I might get my friend to lend me one in a couple of weeks. Alternatively, I might write the midi parts out. Another option is to use...

Right chaps. I've bought Logic X. Bit of a learning curve so I've subscribed to Lynda.com and going through some tutorials there. First impressions are that I can write MIDI stuff from notation. Thank you all for your help :)

Thanks. The midi thing interests me. Prepare for another couple of really naive newbie questions. I can read and write music. If I buy Logic is there a way of me writing a midi bass part in notation and adding it to an effect in Logic which would get round this issue? Alternatively, i have a...

Righty ho! A bass it is. I know a few players so I'm going to scadge one for the time being and use the 2i2 with it. Thanks for all the excellent advice guys :)

Thank you. I'm likely to order Logic. Will it solve my bass issue though ?

Hi. Thanks Logic appeals for the reasons you suggest, Chili. It's in my price range too. Proteus I'm not sure about what it does. Hmm. Lots to learn. But it doesn't seem to be available for Mac as far as I can make out. I am using a mac with Focusrite 2i2 interface which came with a stripped...

Thanks guys. I'm just starting but if I bought something other than garageband would it allow me to add the bass? Any recommendations to look at? Maybe Logic?

Hi. A total newbie to home recording here. I'm using Garageband but I'm struggling to find a way of adding bass - I don't have one. I tried recording my guitar and transposing the track down 12 semitones but it sounded really weird and swirly. It also affected the timing in some strange way Is...
