Not for the first time -I am baffled by how to install a NI plug in on my imac (Intel 2.00 dual Ghz) -using Logic 8.
I bought the Scarbee MM bass on Sunday as a download. I also had to download the Kontakt Player (I have Konktakt 2 which -as it keep reminding me -will not do the job of playing the Scarbee) The Kontakt player works ok (it comes with some free -literally -samples) As for the Scarbee -it's a complete mystery. It was initially installed as in the "Downloads" section. Any ideas as to what to do guys?? If you have installed another NI product of late -even if not the Scarbee -any suggestions as to where I should put things would be great -as there is nothing in the documentation that helps. I have contacted technical support -and am waiting for an email that I pray I will comprehend(!) So -as I say -any help will be a Godsend. Many thanks Phil |

Good advice Houston.
Tell me ...which of the NI Scarbee Basses do you have ? I asked NI to test Pre Bass , and it is only responsive to Pitch Bend Midi Data up to a tone. In Kontakt Player , you can manually set the Pitch Bend Wheel to respond to Pitch Bend Midi Data up to 12 semitones , if you have Midi Pitch Bend Data , but Scarbee won't bend past a tone. ( according to NI and Thomas Scarbee ) I am interested to know whether any of the NI Scarbee Basses can Pitch Bend up to 12 semitones , ( as all of the other VST Bass Instruments on the market can ) Good buddy Phil waiting for NI ....follow Houston's advice !!! ( he is spot on ) NI will probably tell you to read the documentation and install instructions. ( Get used to it ) I am asking the question on the forum because getting information out of NI and Scarbee is very difficult ( to say the least ) chiz tweed |

hey tweed,
i've got the Pre Bass. i use it to secretly replace bass tracks bands i produce have laid down. sometimes, ya know they're not really happening, and the drum track is smokin'. i haven't been troubled by the pitch bend limitation, but then, i'm not a big bass bender. i'm just going for a credible sound. cheers |
