The high notes on bass are not as audible as the low notes and the low notes on guitar are not as audible as the high notes. What can I do to fix this? I am using reaper.

Hi all

I want to simulate a bass guitar with my acoustic guitar to add into recordings. What pedals etc will accomplish this? I am looking for simplicity and would rather not spend a whole lot, cause I ain't got much $
I haven't even tried using this multi track recorder yet. I'm 61 years old and tech stuff scares heck outa me!

Hi there. I've been recording bass guitar using a bass pod for ages and have grown sick of it! I record big, dirty sounding bass primarily. I'm looking into buying a mid-range amp for my bass, but am wondering - in your experience, is it best to D.I. bass or use an amp? I know this one tends to split people but I'd love some input please!

Cheers

What techniques can I use to keep the volume swells at controlled when a bass player pops and slaps his strings? The popping tends to be the worst but the input meter isn't peaking. The bass player is not using any external effects, but does have a built in limiter.

Hi. Next week I have a session booked next week where I (may) have to record an acoustic bass. I have plenty experience in acoustic guitar miking, but was wondering if anyone could offer me advice on placement, and mic selection, this being a very different beast. The guitar has a pickup, but would want to capture some of the guitar body sound as well as the direct sound.

I'll be brief. i'm just looking for a starting point, but the more specifics, the better.

You're recording basic pop-rock stuff. The bassist brings in...let's say a P-Bass, to keep it simple. He brings in his bass amp too, which is a decent one.(I'm not up on the sought after bass amps, sorry)

Do you:

i just got my hands on an ampeg svt1000 bass head.

i want to record from the line out on the back of it. it has a balanced (XLR female) and an unbalanced (1/4") plug on it. which should i use and why?

i see a lot of mics being used for kick drums and bass interchangably. i have an Audix d6 kick drum mic, can i use this to recrod bass guitar as well?

if not, what are some good bass mics?

I'm planning on recording a blend of DI and mic'd. thanks!

I have had an itch to buy a bass guitar for some time now. I don't play bass and have no specific need for a bass guitar...it's just something that I've been wanting for the last year or so.
