So What - Miles Davis
This is about as close as you can get to having the bass play the bassline to so what by Miles Davis.

There's no syncopation of the bass line

It's not perfect but it can be amusing.

I enjoy trying to stretch the limits of iReal Pro, too. Yours, here, is very interesting!

Hi. Interesting chart.
Remember to set the correct key in the "info" section, so transpositions and key display will be consistent.
Happy playing.

"So What" (for bassists)
A chart for bassists to use to play Paul Chambers' opening solo in Miles' "So What" against an answering backing track. It's just the meat part of PC's solo played twice to a coda. I had to stretch it out over double the measures in order to get a dotted-quarter-&-eighth-note effect in the chord player's response on Playback, so the chart looks bigger than on paper. Functionally, I guess it would be in "4/8" time, although it reads in 4/4 on this chart. Each beat here would be an eighth note on a regular chart, and every two measures here would be one measure. If you're having trouble with the timing, try using the drummer to add a drumstick click track for a while. PC's opening DABCDECD starts on the 2nd beat in measure 7 of the Intro since the sheet music I have scores the first seven bass notes as pick-ups. So the final D lands on beat one of the first measure of the A section. Play it through, you'll hear it.

Try this version of "So What."
Try this with Long Notes Style, 360 bpm, Piano & Strings set halfway up, Acoustic Bass set full up, Drums set full down, and Reverb maybe a quarter .

This might be of some interest to you guys, too.
This is the opposite approach: It's for bassists to play bass against the chords. I already posted this chart last month,
