Sorry if this has been covered before, but heres my scenario:
I cant get a custom mix from the desk. Theres a foldback in front of me giving a less than ideal mix but enough to know where the song is going. I have a cabinet on the floor too close to me to hear particularly well, but good...
Sorry if this has been discussed somewhere before, but how common a malady is it to have regret from flipping an instrument even if it was a lousy bass, just for sentimental reasons even? I regret every little bit of gear I've ever sold.
Hi
I have a difference of 5/8 between the two fingers on my right hand that I use to play. If I play something where Im driving the same note in 1/8ths or 1/16th notes then I'm starting to have a problem with evenness because the longer finger (middle i think) digs in deeper because its longer...
So heres an oddball question - how fast should a competent bass player be able to play sixteenth notes. The context is rock, pop, funk and jazz and not any extreme forms of metal.
Is 100bpm a good measure, or can an accomplished bassists hit 120bpm or higher?
I have some bass books full of example grooves using the minor third over a dominant seventh chord which obviously has the major third and no minor third in its chord tones!
Why does this work?
As a beginner it is baffling.
