Im new to recording. I am looking to record bass, guitar, and drums in a few days, but i have never recorded bass. How would I get the best quality. I have my hands on a borrowed line 6 bass effects processor. Should I just direct input to the board, then bus to the effects processor, or would it make sense to use a large diaphragm condenser mic on the amp also?

are you guys using bass modeler plugins, or does anyone have a sweet studio cab and amp head combo they like?

I have been trying to introduce some bass sounds to my recordings (mainly acoustic).

I am having little success with Synth Bass's that comesupplied with logic. I suppose what i am after is a good bass guitar plugin - anybody know of one which sounds good?

Hello,
I am very new at recording music. I own a Zoom MRS 802B recorder. When I record the bass I plug straight into the machine. The sound is very muddy and far from pure. I was wondering if it is better to mic the amp and record that way. If anyone has suggestions please let me know.

Take it easy on me, remember I am new at this. Thanks

I just got finished tracking a rock band. I recorded the bass guitar straight into a direct inject pre on my Firepod, into my computer. compared to other bassists i have recorded, his sound was really dull. i know his guitar wasn't top of the line, and his playing lacked some technique. I dont play any string instruments, so i couldnt really suggest anything to help him.

Greetings all,

Firstly, I am a bass player only. I come here seeking advice, which most likely only those with your experience can provide.

What I need:

A high quality effects processor to use when playing my bass guitar live. It would include EQ/delay/chorus/compression etc.

Hello, all. Long time, no post. Long time, no need.

However, I finally have 'cracked' into the industry and am co-producing a band. However, I'm having trouble with one significant thing.

Hey,

Our bass player is looking for a 2nd hand Musicman Stingray 5. There are a few for sale just above € 1.000,00.

Besides the usual check on electronics, frets, neck, sound, paint etc. is there anything in particular about this bass when it is used? I mean, does it have a reputation for certain bad things?

All help is wellcome.

Hey,

Any recommended model of Yamaha 5 String Bass Guitar?

Besides, any other reasonable price + 5 string = recording purpose?
