SoulFingers Thanks Mario :W Logic Pro now comes with some fantastic bass sounds and good drumming. A great support to create guitar tracks with, but it would be nothing without the vocals ;) +1
GlezBass
GlezBass Great!! how to make the bass line? by midi chord editing or playing on bass? sounds great ;) +1
SoulFingers
SoulFingers In your Logic project you create a global track with the chord chart and another one with the song structure (intro, verse, bridge etc.) and then use a kind of wizard that creates a midi sequence, very similar to the sequencers that existed on the very old home organs to create arpeggios. You select a VST instrument and do a lot of fine tuning. It works similar to the drum sequencer. +1

SoulFingers Definitely not the same fun and feel like playing a real string instrument, but good to create background tracks to practice with your original instrument ;) +1
GlezBass
GlezBass Yes it´s a great idea!! ;) +1

GlezBass I play the lines on a real, physically short-scale Squier bass (I first tried it with a cigar box...), this, due to the frequency of the strings, triggers the VST sound of an upright bass via midi conversion and it works really quite well (98% of the notes), it's the real sensation of playing a vibrating string; that's why I asked you

Something like that if you haven't seen it ;)

GlezBass You are certainly right!! This system deceives the ear, let alone the vibrating heart... Ha!! +1

I love that you fleshed out the rhythm section and put this totally in a jazz style… sounds fab :D Logic used to be my sole DAW, so versatile and intuitive and you utilize it so well here <3 +1
SoulFingers
SoulFingers Glad you like it! It was too tempting to create an all-jazz version and these tracks were created anyway for the initial guitar ;):) +1
