Eli kicks off the course with a broad overview of the instrument, including what it can do, how it works, and how the interface is laid out. Then it’s down to business, and you’ll learn how to create your own custom parts from scratch using keyswitches to change between various articulations and playing styles (sustain, mute, flageolet) in real time. Eli then covers the bowing articulation and demonstrates how to incorporate it into an arrangement as a solo sound, using the monophonic mode to produce smooth pitch transitions.
Next up, you’ll learn about several special keyswitches to access varied techniques, such as slides (ascending and descending), dead notes, and more, all of which help lend incredible authenticity to your lines. Pitch bend and vibrato are then covered, as is the “Fret Pos” parameter, which allows you to force Upright Bass to play notes in a specified position on the neck. There’s plenty more as well, including the use of patterns (pre-made bass lines in numerous styles), the song and pattern browsers, customizing the patterns (with different feels, swing, humanization, accents, playback speed, articulation, etc.), saving your work, amp/FX settings (for getting unique tones), bass settings (various instrument parameters like tuning, sympathetic responses, fret noise, etc.), MIDI drag and drop, and more!
