Play page controls
Most of the controls you need to play and alter the performance of
Virtual Bassist can be found on the Play page.
Four or five string
Use this switch to choose between a standard four string or five string
bass (which has an additional low B string). In 5 string mode Virtual
Bassist will play licks including notes on the low B string, whenever
possible.
• You can switch between 4-string or 5-string mode using the MIDI
remote key C#2.
MIDI In
The MIDI In LED lights up red to indicate that Virtual Bassist receives
MIDI data from your host application or MIDI keyboard. When you play
notes on your keyboard but the LED does not light up, this means
Virtual Bassist is not receiving any MIDI data.
Chords/Note
You can switch between Chords or Note mode during a performance
by playing MIDI note D#2 on your MIDI keyboard or host application.
The Chords/Note mode selector determines whether a Part will play
melodic bass lines or the rhythmic pattern of the Part using only the
root keys and octaves of the note or chord chosen in the Pitch Range.
Changing this setting will not affect every Part of a Style.
