TheMaartian Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 One thing the IKM installer does NOT do is create a shortcut for the standalone version. You have to go to the Modo Bass 2 folder, right-click on the .EXE and select Create Shortcut. Windows will place it on the desktop (where I want it anyway). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitekrazy1 Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 So far the desktop version doesn't like ASIO hardware drivers. It wont work with my MOTU M2 or AP 2496. I shall see if that happens on the other 2 systems. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter - IK Multimedia Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 It likes my AXE I/O too, as well as my three Steinberg MR816s daisychained, but I haven't tried on anything else. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter, I'm about to leave on a road trip, for how long will Modo Bass 1 users be able to upgrade to MB2 for the discounted price? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esteban Villanova Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 Works fine with my Focusrite iTrack Solo. Sounds nice, and the Mute knob is brilliant! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacques Boileau Posted May 26, 2022 Share Posted May 26, 2022 I have MODO Bass 1 complete. Will installing MODO Bass 2 CS bring any of my basses from 1 into 2 in addition to the one provided with CS? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulo Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 I just tried it in my current project and it sounds pretty good to be fair, but it's not making exchanging 200 beer tokens for the full version seem like something that I need to do. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telecode 101 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Just tried it out here. All seems to be working well. Standalone using about 3% CPU and 4gb ram when loaded. Toontrack EZBass in comparison seems to be using slightly more. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
user 905133 Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 (edited) Since I have MODO BASS 1, I looked at the comparison table and didn't see any benefit to installing MODO BASS 2 CS. Is there any benefit, other than the option to buy ala carte basses? Update: Found it. MODO BASS 2 CS has features listed that MODO BASS 1 doesn't: Reduced number of patterns. No fretless capability. Might be worth installing if it adds the ability to record, save, and load user bass patterns. Quote 10.2 – Importing your own patterns If you would like to save patterns you create with MODO BASS 2 inside the application so that they appear in the patterns section, you should name them as follows: Genre_Section_Playstyle_Bars_Signature_BPM_Key_Song Name.mid Then, move them inside the following folder: /Documents/IK Multimedia/MODO BASS 2/Patterns/ These will appear in the Patterns section as well as in the pattern menu in the bottom bar once the application is relaunched. This feature seems to make having to scroll past the new locked basses worth the extra effort, but the CS version might not have this feature. (I couldn't get it to work.) I'd be interested in knowing if anyone can add user bass MIDI files. Edited May 27, 2022 by User 905133 (3) to say that the CS version might not support user patterns; (2) to add info from the manual about adding user bass patterns; (1) to answer my own question 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
