How does my bass sound ? Midscooped ? Thin ? Hollow ?

Salut all

I made that album Easy Way Down alone.
I am wondering what are you thoughts about the bass mix and tone.

Is it far from standard industry ?
Is it rather classic ?
Is it too midscooped ?
Or too mid heavy ?
Too boomy ?
Too thin ?
Lacking specific frequencies ?

Not the same bass on all tracks, but I think we could find some simiralities on tone.

- 7 tracks with a Modulus Funk Unlimited
- 2 tracks with a Jazz Bass with flat wounds, no amp, DI
- 2 tracks with a Geddy Lee Jazz bass ( through YYZ pedal )
- 1 track with a Rickenbacker (full bridge + 1/3 neck ) ( through YYZ pedal )
- 1 track with a Rickenbacker (neck only)
- 1 track with a Precision with flat + a Stingray

I am happy with my album tone, just curious to know what other people think of it

Listened to both the Spotify and YouTube tracks on some OK headphones. To my ear, the bass could use more lows and and a little more highs. The mids are certainly there.
