Hi, the IR is a fantastic bass on it´s own without the Midi-function. It sounds great and is super smooth playble.
I would buy and play it, even without the Midi-Part.
The best thing of this technic is, that you can play all kinds of hammer pull on pull off and slides, even tapping. All is being track with the same latncy of 3 ms.
