    Recording Stuido Bass tips

    I'm not sure on the pro tools stuff, its not my computer, and im not the engineer, I just play the stuff and tell him how I think it sounds, but the headphones are really nice, not cheapoes by any means. I couldn't tell you for sure, but I think they are bose headphones, and the big ones that...

    Recording Stuido Bass tips

    well, the next thing I'm getting for my setup is the GEB-7 eq switch, but at the moment it will take me a couple of months to get the $80 together for it. (I'm in the process of moving and don't have any cash to spare) I've tried the preamp/postamp switch on the DI both ways, and sounds like...

    Recording Stuido Bass tips

    My system I'm using in the studio is a GK BL 600 with an ashdown mag stack. The BL head's DI sounds really empty and lifeless alone, and my cabs have been put in favor of the eq because of their warmth. The room we're in isn't isolated from the recording area, so yes, its hard to discern between...

    Recording Stuido Bass tips

    My band and I have built a pretty good recording stuido with pro tools with the DI box, a 12 channel mackie mixing board, and a full set of 2 condenser mics, 4 misc drum mics (snare and tom), and a kick drum mic. I've spent the time to make my personal taste for bass sound to somewhat...

I think it might be a slight ground problem due to the cord mis-match. It is loud though. Our stuido has ceiling tiles, and you can hear them buzz, and...

    Power cords...

    I just got a new GK BL 600, and lost the power cord somewhere between home and my bands studio. The back of the amp says ~120v 60hz but the only power cord I have near by is from a computer that says 10A ~250v. This is only the cord, not a power converter box on a cord. Does the...

    Seeking that low-end piano sound.

    thanks for all the replies guys, I guess I should have added that I play more of a fingered, grunge/walking groove type way, I don't know how to explain it, but I use all strings and play across the whole board with more flowing walking grunge riffs. I'm looking for a more metallic than...

    Seeking that low-end piano sound.

    First post btw... I was reading all the string threads on here, and realized I had never put that much thought into strings. Normally I just use Ernie Ball med gauge strings. I've had my Dean Edge bass for about 3 years now, and I bought it because it has somewhat of a "low key on a grand...
