Brille, appreciate your input.
Inspired by what you mentioned, I tried many different ways with varying levels of success. In my case, I 'think' the constant D in the bass was more of a coincidence than my designed outcome.
I tried the slash D in beats 1&2 and also 3&4. Each generation gave a different outcome, and this first screen capture was the closest after several tries.
The second screen capture was another generation from the same file. Bass line has the note D in different parts of the bar.
