I did not hear any additional notes, like F# or G#, which means - to me! - it's not a slide therefore, I assumed the following: Now, I need to figure out how Chuck did it. ![]() I can hear two short (I've marked them as grace) A and G notes between the the clearly pronounced F and G. Here is what I here at a VERY slow tempo. I decide to slow that "slow version" even more. No2: It looks also easy, and again, I just need to figure out if it's a slide or hammer-on. I just need to figure out if it's a legato slide or a hammer-on. It's Bar 10 from the original/studio Steely Dan Peg recording. Even good PRO bass players playing/touring with Steely Dan don't get (or don't want to get) those nuances. Here is a (simplified) sound clip from Guitar Pro of those very few bars at a slower - 90BPM tempo, not the original 117BPM.Ĭlick to expand.NO, NO, and NO. " Absolutely amazing! Very accurate at scoring an audio bass line." Sorry for such a long and verbose comment, but I' was just trying to show MY understanding about Pro, I intentionally placed one more A on the transcription. I did not need to add an additional - second - A note, but in order to get some kind of similar sound from Guitar I can clearly hear that " almost" Bb/A# - A - B - triplet. No5: Here is how I hear that last Beat, and here is how I interpret what I hear.Ĭhuck bends and releases A on the E string and hammers-on B before jumping to D on the A string. Is it ghosted but accented F or E? I've notated as E. Plus, the last two 16th notes ( light swing/shuffle) - E and hammer-on G. It sounds somewhere in between E and F/Open and 1st fret. The first note is kind of ghosted, not perfectly clear. No3: I hear almost like a "harmonic" slide from E to G note, and I assumed, it's on the E string. No2: I can hear that wide vibrato/bending, starting on the second part of Beat 3. Only later in the song, the second time Chuck is playing double stops with Eb and D. Also, there is only ONE double stop at the beginning of the song. No1: I think Chuck slides from the 4th fret on the A string to the 13th fret -Bb/A#. I'm trying to notate it as close as possible with Guitar Pro6 to what I've heard on the original studio record - not the later instrumental version. Here is my lame attempt to transcribe Chuck Rainey's bass-line from Peg (just a few bars.) Here is that spot from the studio version. When Chuck recorded the "Instrumental" version of that song - a few years later, Chuck plays that note. That on the original studio recording, at 0:56, Chuck Rainey does not play first C on Beat 1.Īnd it's happening only ONCE on that record. To my regret, your advertised "absolutely amazing" software could not even get close to the "generic" somebody else's bass-line, possible from Steely Dan's Peg. I want to transcribe and play, more or less, Chuck Rainey's bass-line with, more or less, all the nuances (that MY ears can hear) and my technical background could afford to interpret it. I don't want to just play some "GENERIC" somebody else's bass-line. I've checked quite a few available transcriptions of it but found NOTHING suitable to my taste. I really need it because I'm trying to DILIGENTLY transcribe Chuck Rainey's bass-line from Peg. When I've read your, " Absolutely amazing!" statement, I thought, "WOW.
