I am trying to get to a low C on the electric basses and I hit the string noises (whatever you call the noises that your fingers make moving across the strings). Why were these put in the low registers for a bass, which you would use, when the high registers are never used anyway? Is it that a real bass doesn't go that low?

Exactly
The Low E is the lowest note...
We did let it go to the lowest D though.. So you can do some Lower D Tunings.
We put the string noise to the left of that.
That is the way it has been traditionally done by a few others also.
You can though ...open up the soundsets and remap but then you are stretching the Samples to notes that the original did not have.
Also we sampled the Bass right up to the Highest note on the Bass ...so we do use the high registers.
Also when you are playing it live ... via a controller keyboard, most of the time you are in the lower octaves ... so it puts the string noise close to where you can use it quickly.
The low C on a Bass is up from the lowest E really.
Make sense?
In the future i will map some of the newer sets to go lower for a bit of variation though.

Hi Pete
Oh Yes
Working on an Ovation Acoustic Electric addon set right now. It will be cool ..Sampled with Mics and also with the Built in 9volt powered pickup.
Also a few more Bass sets are planned for the very near future. And of course many other new instruments too!
Take Care.
