I like that we now can input the root note CV into Bassline Generator to essentially play along but the only other player RE known to me that can output it is the Chord Sequencer. Anyone know of any other useful player REs or workarounds that could be used to let BG play along with MIDI coming from any other player RE or even from keyboard MIDI input directly?

A couple of possibilities...
1. ReTouch's ChordSQ is similar to ChordSequencer, and has a root note output.
2. Any Player that outputs note data can be used to sequence the root note of BLG by using CVPTap to intercept the Player's note data.

We had a lengthy discussion on this, regarding ScaleMatrix. You can read on from here:

A handy utility from Deadman Audio called One Note Stand converts track note data or incoming note data into CV and Gate that can be patched around to other devices. It's not an instrument but it's treated like one by Reason, so you can record notes into its track.

Thank you for the ideas! I'm gonna give these a try!
Do you know what CVPTap is called exactly on the store? I can't seem to find it.
