So our producer just sent us a sample from our new CD that is coming out!!! I'm SO excited I just can't contain it.
*Make sure you watch it in the highest quality!!!!* ‪Alabaster Overcome‬‏ - YouTube
This is the first time I have ever recorded bass (or played bass in a band) so it was defiantly an experience.
We used my Aguilar DB750 into an Ampeg 810e and just mid'ed it with a D112.
What do you guys think of the sound?
You also get to see some studio footage of my Ric getting some well deserved action.

I'm pleased to tell you I just D/Led the album from iTunes. Congrats! I think it sounds great! I like your singer's voice quite a lot and she does a great job.

Cheers
