i cant hear any bass sound from my laptop

im the one who playing the bass guitar in the video ,

actually when im playing the bass i can hear the bass sound
( maybe the Mps so close to me , )

but after we recorded , i cant hear the bass sound ,

is it because the camera which i use for recording was so far from the bass Amps ?

well , we still a rookie , we just play for fun only , not all the time

Try some headphones.

IME, laptop speakers are pretty much useless for bass.

Edit: I couldn't hear much bass either. From what I heard, I suggest you turn up the bass/cut the treble on your amp. Seems like to much treble. Maybe a bit more volume. You could also put a bit more effort into plucking the strings a bit harder. See what works and go with that. Try out different things.

I use Sony MDR-XD300 headphones to listen to my computer or practice amp. They are very open and clean sounding headphones at a reasonable price. I don't hear much bass in your mix, but wouldn't change the tone controls if that is the sound you like, just add volume and/or pluck harder.
