Hey i'm new here.. just needed to ask a question.. i am creating a lot of music myself... mostly alternative rockmetal.. but a friend of mine wants me to create some hip hop beats for him.. and i've made some that he likes alot.. but i have problems with getting the bassdrum sound tight and hard.. it always has to much bass or to little bass..

I have recently come across something. I have recently made my own "experimental" mics and one is very good at picking up high and mid frequencies and the other (being of large diaphragm make) picks up the lower frequencies. Individually these mics would be terrible at Micing the bass drums, however, I placed the both mics in the bass drums and it produces an excepional sound.

I tried using the search feature, but kept getting some "debug mode?" screen without any results.

I am wondering how exactly I should record the bass guitar for this hard rock project.

THe bassist is using some sort of Ampeg head with a 4x10 Ampeg cab with tweeter. He is also using a Line 6 PODxt bass effects unit.

hi guys i have to rec a solo jazz boublebass. anyone can talk me about this?

thanks

Hey, I was wondering if anyone can help me with something. (Besides tuning the drum [I already have, well] ) What is a good way to achieve that metalcore/hardcore sound on the bass drum? A good example of this is Jordan Mancino's drums on As I Lay Dying's last two albums. I love how they sound and work in the songs. What would I have to do to get a sound like that?

my bassist has an ampeg B2-R head and a 1X15 classic cab. he is wanting to get a good solid punk bass sound out of it. somewhat on the mid range side of things with clarity to make hot bass licks shine through.

the EQ bands are (+/- 12dB): 40, 80, 150, 300, 600, 900, 2k, 5k, 8k

and hes running a fender P bass 4 string through it (passive).

Here's a quickie:

I have a Seb vmp 4000e and a Focusrite ISA 238.

I'm using those for drums and guitars.

Will those pres work well on vocals, or do I need another unit, say a Grace or a Great River, for vocal duties?

At that rate, will those two pres do the job for fat bass? If not, what do you recommend for good vocals and bass?

Hey guys I'm looking for some cool effects to throw on my bass sound. Whats a good rack mount processor for that kinda stuff. I was looking at a Line 6 Bass POD but i heard PODs were trash. Any suggestions?

What combo of EQ / compression or other things are you guys using? Been trying to work up a bass sound for the first time in a while and going back to basics. The signal chain is a Carvin LB76 bass into a Brick feeding a RME Hammerfall 9632 and using Cubase as a platform.

I am in a position to buy this amp for a good price, and was just wondering if there is anyone here that has had any experience with it? I have had the oppurtunity to test it and give it a brief service, and whilst it needs a re-valve, I really like the sound of it.
