    Double Bass The slap is louder than the note

    If a player is amped he has control over two volumes: The volume of the slap and the volume of belly. These two volumes are changed even during gigs, cause every song might need another slap/tone ratio. I wouldn't know if your tone gets lost a lot at the cost of your slap, but I do know that...
