i got a chance to buy a radial jdi for a good price and did some searches but they mostly relate to guitars and not bass. i would use it just for bass and I'm using a $50 rapco passive di for bass now.it does the job but I'm thinking i would notice a difference with the jensen transformer in the jdi. think i would?

I'm looking for cheap (50-100 dollar range for each mic) overhead and bass drum mics to record my drum set. I already know what I'm going to be using for the snare (sm57 of course).
Thanks

Hi all

Had a session the other night. Plugged the bass into my Avalon 737 with the Avalon set to "Instrument".
Was getting signal thru the Avalon into my board, where I set the trim to appropriate level. Recording went fine over the two hour session.
I only found out later that the bass was an "active" bass with it's own preamp circuitry. Don't know what brand.

Let me just say, I'm not new to recording but I'm very new to Logic, and still slowly learning my way around the interface. I'm in the process of recording a song, it's got 2 guitar tracks and one bass track as of right now. I'm trying to use one of Logic's Built-In Instruments for the Bass Guitar track.

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!

How would I go about achieving the following bass tone:

old school
motown
james brown
kind of beatlish
funky/but not slap
some fuzz
some growl
deep reggaeish
big fat dirty

hi,

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

Ok so I connect my bass to a direct box and next to a preamp that goes to an interface.
I notice a kinda click sound every now and then so I think well maibe a bad cable. I change the bass cable dosnt seem to solve the problem.
