Accord transfer in to Bass track question (WIN10 Fender Studio Pro 8.0.0

[AndreasB]

Hello swarm intelligence,

I have issue of ONLY transferring the bass notes from the cord track to an Instrument (Presence with a Bass instrument),
even if I set the target track to "follow accord = bass" in the inspector.
It always places the all notes (triad) from the cord track in to this instrument track.,
instead of only the lowest note. So I have to delete manually.
I disabled the general "follow accords", but this does not help.
I mark single or multiple accords in the cord track with the mouse and do a drag&drop to the target.

I don't know if it helps here but in my experience it's good idea to update to 8.0.1

Thanks. Just updated now, but did not try again the issue up. We'll see...

I tried it with the newest Version, but the behaviour did not change.
So how to extract only the bass notes only from the cord-track to an instrument track?

D&D the chords to the desired track; use the <Select Lowest Notes> macro from the [Music Editing>Filter & Delete>Select] macro bar menu and then invoke the <Invert Selection> keystroke from the Edit Menu and delete the unwanted notes above the root, OR combine them all into a new macro to do it all in one click or keystroke.

Thanks.
But I now found a much faster way to do it:
Select all notes (e.g. with the Mouse), then open enable macro [Music Creation]. There You can click from the Select Notes the "Low", then "Rev Sel" and simply delete.
I've just created me a new macro. So I only have to do the D&D, mark the notes of the instrument part and click the macro.

You ended up exactly where I was prompting you... by combining the mentioned shortcuts into one macro.

I was curious about this. It creates the worst possible bass line for the song. I guess it might work for simple music. But not for 3 chord pop music.
