Fairly comprehensibe but overly repetitive and notable omissions
This is a fairly comprehensive review but suffers from excessive repetition. It would benefit from some serious editing. Disappointingly there is almost no exploration of the possibilities for integrating with EZKeys and EZDrummer 2 / Superior Drummer. This is a surprising omission and should be rectified. Overall, one has the impression that this has been knocked up quickly; the presenter almost seems to be learning the software as he goes along. It is not up to the standard of some of the other G3 videos I've watched.

My Best Bandmate Ever!
EZbass is the greatest bass player I've ever played with! Versatility and skill level is amazing, not to mention the great sounds he can riff. One of the greatest features is that he never argues with me!

These videos got me up to speed quickly. The first night, I poked around on my own and got not much. My second time "going in" to the program, after watching, I got a solid, interesting track that was a keeper!
