[LAU] Piano and bass

[Miguel M]

I think that's about as realistic to a real sounding bass as you can
get.  
A midi controlled bass instrument will not give you the same sound as a
real guitar.  (Hammer Ons, Pull Offs, Mutes, etc)  Of course this
wouldn't be done for professional audio, but it could be used to have a
nice practice session.
