[jmp2203]

hi im new to the board! im actually a guitar player that need to record some rock/metal bass for my tunes

right now im using this ignite SHB-1 vst and imo sounds very good but i have to say that its very cpu heavy but also want to tried an analog pedal

i need your advice bass players, im playing a nice pasive peavey foundation 5 thru a fmr audio rnp as a DI and im using a pick

edit: i had to mention that i used a V-Tone Bass BDI21 sansamp clone and didnt like it at all

There are actually a ton of good options out there these days, enough to keep you busy and broke forever. Start with the Tronographic Rusty Box or the Darkglass B series. Many many threads about them in the FX forum.
