Description : EZbass is a virtual bass instrument with great sound and fundamental features that make it easy to add a bass guitar to your tracks. The instrument promises the same level of convenience and flexibility, as well as sound quality and realism, found throughout the EZline line. The Virtual Bassist combines MIDI work with advanced bass writing skills in various styles of music.
The sample libraries support a variety of articulations, including legato, vibrato, slides, hammers and pools, harmonics, and more. EZbass has an integrated effects section, consisting of emulations of bass amps and cabinets, as well as stompboxes and rack effects.
There is also an extensive library of grooves. All MIDI parts are recorded with the highest attention to the nuances of performance. The grooves are divided by style, while the library engine adapts the grooves to the tone of the project.
Update: Added version for MacOSX
General
Added support for percussive articulations that may exist in new EBX libraries.
sound engine
An additional pluck would sometimes be heard during non-legato slides.
Song Track
If a tempo track had been imported from a MIDI file and two tempo nodes were located very close to each other, it could cause the playhead to jump away very far.
CC events from a MIDI file were not parsed correctly if they were placed in the middle of a slide sequence.
Song tracks can no longer be renamed to an empty string or only spaces.
Grid Editor
The lines connecting notes in slides would in some cases become invisible.
audio tracker
The time signature and the tempo in the tracker could have random values, which could cause crashes, if the host had not yet asked the EZbass to render any audio.

I was unable to update the Core Library so I manually copy and pasted/merged the content files from the EZbass_Core_Library_Update_MAC_111.dmg. It now works like a dream
