    What kind of tones can you get out of the Yamaha TRBX505?

    I'm looking for a budget 5 string bass that's versatile to cross genres for home recording. Can you get a jazz bass and p bass tone out of this one? Or possibly a pj?

    Amp recommendations for Ccm,Gospel,Jazz,Neo Soul

    I just ordered a TRBX505 5 string bass to play at church and do home recording. That being said, is there an amp that would sound good for the listed genres above? I bought this particular bass with versatility in mind, to possibly have an all-in-one bass, to compose and make music in many...

    I just got a new bass... and...

    Also, I just noticed when I plugged it into the audio interface again, that the sound of the signal is pretty quiet... Even with the interface gain at 12 o clock. If I crank up the gain any more, it clips. Is that normal? Also, could it be that since the bass has active pre amps built into it...

    I just got a new bass... and...

    I'm just wondering if I should return it or not because I really don't want my recordings to always be hissing. It was a used bass from guitarcenter.com and I'm not sure if it's defective or not 'cause I'm not that techy of a guy. The bass looks like it could've been a demo for a while because...

    Any Bass Guitar Scales and Arpeggio Books u recommend?

    I'm trying to learn how to play major and minor scales and modes and arpeggios properly on bass guitar. I'm noticing as I play on bass that there are several ways to play a single scale or arpeggio, (ex. in C major), in different fingerings and positions and strings on the bass. Is there a...

    How do I monitor midi keyboard through studio monitors and Alesis drums w/amp

    In Logic Pro I created a midi drum track and started fiddling around with the vst/drum channel's parameters but I'm not too familiar with sends, busses, and stuff. It sounds like the set up I have is possible but I can still hear the piano/keyboard vst coming out of the drum amp. If I could send...

    How do I monitor midi keyboard through studio monitors and Alesis drums w/amp

    Hey, thanks for the reply! I'm pretty new to audio. Is a send just an input or output plug on the back of my audio interface? if so, I have a Focusrite Scarlett 4i4 3rd gen audio interface. It has 4 line outputs and 2 line inputs on the back and 2 mic/instrument inputs on the front. My studio...

    How do I send my videos to my laptop after recording?

    If you have a micro-sd card inside your phone that you stored the video you recorded on, you could take the micro-sd card out of your phone and put it into an sd card adapter and plug it into your computer and find the folder you saved it on in the sd card.
