Please be more specific. Which ones?

I've been bitten by that one before.

I'm betting you had input echo turned on your previously recorded track.

And I will take advantage of this particularly timely opportunity to point out that this is a perfect example of why it can be problematic to not stay reasonably updated.

RTFM

It is. You're exporting the entire mix.

Is there a used market there? Buying things used is often MUCH less expensive. I just know that as a guitarist, I found trying to play bass guitar parts with a keyboard very unsatisfying and playing bass on guitar and pitch shifting it never felt or sounded right. Even a low end budget instrument will get the job done.

While it can be done - people do it - CW is not really intended as a live performance tool. You're better off mixing down to a .wav or .mp3 and using that. Even Notes Norton, famous for creating and selling third-party Band-in-a-Box styles and who plays gigs constantly does it that way.

Ample Sound is an instrument, not an effect. What you are trying to do doesn't work; it has to be driven by MIDI. My honest to God advice is to just get a bass.

At the very least, there shouldn't be any harm in connecting once in awhile to get updates, etc....

What synth is your keyboard routed to? Start here:

You are simply ridiculous.

Be careful what you wish for, because you just might get it.

My aunt used to have a neighbor named Clint Torres.

Taste.

How did people ever manage to do this for tens of thousands of years before computers?

I'm thinking ear training and listening with your ears rather than your eyes.

Yes.

Yes.

Nice! Very evocative.

That's some really good guitar playing! Well, all of it is really good.

Great job on Harmony!

Wow. I would have thought I was listening to an old record. Lots of feeling in that.

I thought that "mastering" was the final step....
