Re: [Logic_Cafe] Strumming acoustic guitars and driving basses

2010-01-29 by Steve Currington

Hi 

Can't really help re Rhythm/Strumming guitar but..

For a driving bass have you looked at Spectrasonics Trillian.
Pretty good plug-in..  Not exacly cheap but a worthwhile investment if you wil be needing to do bass likes often.
It can be previewed at http://www.spectrasonics.net/instruments/trilian.php
and at this location there are some video's.

If you have Logic v9.x you can also use some of the stomp box effects and amp effects to add some additional grind etc.

OK never exactly like a real playing human but probably as close as you will bet without and way way better than the Logic inbuilt ones.
