New to Sonar - can I perform an SI Bass using my midi keyboard?

  Hi all, I've recently bought Sonar X1 Essential, and I'm finding it great fun. I have however, got a question. I have successfully performed a keyboard part using the library of bass and drums as a backing. I'm using an inexpensive M-audio 49 key keyboard. I'm now working on another piece, where I wanted to "perform" the Bass guitar using the SI Bass guitar sounds, and my M-Audio keyboard to play it on. But it won't make a sound with SI Bass sounds, although it works fine with SI Electric Pianos etc. Is it possible to do this - if not how would one perform an SI Bass part. I hope this is not too daft a question - thanks for any help.

I would imagine that there is some way of 'shifting' your keyboard's octaves up & down. Have a look at your keyboard manual.

That is assuming of course you have the routing to the Bass correctly set up, see this video for more info on that.

  Well, I've no idea why the Midi controller wasn't working with the SI Bass and Drums but was fine with the SI Piano, but I started the project again from scratch and all is working fine. Works for me. :)
