Hi,

All I can find that looks anything like that is:
Bass, Acoustic, Bossa EV 085 (A:Simple)
...

No, those aren't the ones. Try downloading and installing the patch again - there was a fix. For example, you should see "Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Swing Sw 140 [Simple]" (provided you already have the normal "Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Swing Sw 140" installed).




Aha! Downloading the patch again found the missing (Simple) styles. And very nice they are too!

In the future, I will allow BETA patches to settle a little before I download them. I think I took 313 before it was even mentioned on the forum.

Thanks Andrew!!!

It being Christmas Day in Australia already: Compliments of the season everyone.

We have a great gig lined up for Boxing day, provided it is not rained off. I have used the new 'Medley' feature to put together some seasonal tunes. The transitions to a new key are lovely!

Hmmm... Yes they look good to me.

At the moment, not sure exactly what's going on there, but will look into it further...



Hi Andrew,

I just double-checked on the above list of RealTracks this morning.

Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Sw 140
Bass, Acoustic, Bossa Ev 140
Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Ballad Sw 085
Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Waltz Sw 140
Bass, Acoustic, Bossa Ev 085
Bass, Acoustic, Samba Ev 190
Bass, Acoustic, Jazz BeBop Sw 190
Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Waltz Sw 085

Yesterday *each* and every of these RealTracks showed incorrect Bass RealCharts when creating these RealTracks on the soloist track, say. These RealCharts looked very much like strumming guitar patterns when checking on them.

Today most of them show correct RealCharts. This does sound very odd at first reading, doesn’t it. And I am absolutely not sure what’s going on here either. Maybe the daily reboot of the machine changed some issues … which would be odd all by itself.

Now, currently these RealTracks show correct RealCharts here:

Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Sw 140
Bass, Acoustic, Bossa Ev 140
Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Ballad Sw 085
Bass, Acoustic, Bossa Ev 085
Bass, Acoustic, Jazz BeBop Sw 190

Whereas these RealCharts are still incorrect:

Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Waltz Sw 140
Bass, Acoustic, Samba Ev 190
Bass, Acoustic, Jazz Waltz Sw 085

Example:
Bass, Acoustic, Samba Ev 190 via the Demo Song of _BNGS190.STY



The Bass line sounds good, yet its RealChart looks quite different from what’s being heard.
