Hi John,

You have Sonar X3d Producer so you have at least the Melodyne Essential. If the bass line is all monophonic just drop the bass wav in Sonar and use Melodyne to create the MIDI version of it.

I upgraded to Melodyne Editor and I have used it to create MIDI versions of bass lines and guitar chords. It is the best audio to MIDI conversion software that I have found and in fact I have had to do none to very little editing of the MIDI track.

On Jon’s Tune, the last song I uploaded here, I did exactly what you are asking. I took my bass line and converted it to MIDI.

Good luck.
