You're simply not thinking like a bass player. You need to play a bit differently and then do some editing.

For example, fast runs of just say four notes. You would probably (or at least I would) play the first note and then hammer on each rise in pitch when you fret the note. This produces a run of four notes with no gap whatsoever between them, so that is very difficult to do on a keyboard, so you need to edit the gaps out, and of course change the velocities of each one - my third finger always plays slightly quieter than the second. You need to also edit your eq to make it sound more real - to dull some, and and energy to others.

You need to perhaps also in introduce some pitch bend and modulation, as your fingers often do. #Scarbee bass midi patterns how toĮxperiment to work out how to best introduce palm muting if your playing style uses it. Pick, fingernail, side of first finger, thumb - all have different sounds - how do you replicate these tonal differences. If you have very fast picking to mimic, then it's two fingers on one key, I use both hands, first fingers, or sometimes copy and paste and overlay the in between notes, whatever sounds best. Just do a lot of Hip Hop/EDM music.and you won't have to worry about the synth will actually sound right for those genres!īoy, back in the mid-90s I spent a lot of time jerking around with a mostly MIDI approach to generating tracks.and while there was/is something addictive about, because you get ALL THOSE SOUNDS that you can't with typical acoustic instruments.in the end, when I wanted an acoustic instrument, I ended up going back to them' Avoid quantising, and above all I assume your keyboard is decently velocity sensitive? Very important.

I mean, I have a hard time even with many digital piano sounds.they just sound digital.
