I thought I was the only one who was tracking bass with headphones. When I'm recording bass(mostly metal) I use a di and a tech 21 psa 2. The di is ony for reamping(almost never),editing and side chain gate. The psa 2 is my main sound (using preset 47 with less gain due to active bass) The bass I use is a peavy cirus(indonesia) with ermie ball round cobalts

I thought reamping meant using a "real" amp out of the DAW send and then go back to the DAW return after the sound has been processed in the real amp. But it seems you consider uing an amp simul is reamping too.
@IvanBassist21 сағат бұрын
In theory, yes. You take the DI signal and put it through a different amp. I’m doing the same process, but “in-the-box”. It’s easier and gives you some more flexibility. Sometimes I do record my mic’d up cabinet, though.

Hi Ivan, great video as always! I’d have a question. Would you recommend playing the full track from the beginning till the end when recording? Or how do you handle complex songs with lots of parts? Do you record section for section in this case? Thank you and cheers from Munich. Damir
@IvanBassist21 сағат бұрын
I usually try to record full takes of songs and only punch in when necessary. This gives the track some more live and consistent performance dynamics. It can sound a bit “choppy” if you punch in too much. Grüße aus Hamburg!
Lovely cover! This is one of my favourite songs to sing along to! Well done!

Yes, but if you want to patch into the stage box for FOH, you need an XLR plug. Yes, you could get an adapter, but those get lost quickly on tour or festival changeovers

I also enjoyed the first Noble video. Between listening and seeing what it does on the scope, how it's built, and simplicity... Well if I had any money I would have bought one. If they were available I might have bought one. So I was thrilled to see it offered for the Pod Go update, "for free". As you point out, it's not going to be for everybody but it's pretty tight. Keep up the great work!

While I agree with most of the benefits of multiscale, I have to disagree completely on the ergonomic slant matching the hand angle thing. That is one of the greatest misconceptions about multiscale and whenever it's brought up I just shake my head. The reason that's wrong is because your hand angle has nothing to do with the anatomy of your fingers. You fingers are structures for parallel perpendicular motion to the fretboard when articulating, and the relative lengths of the fingers also match parallel motions perpendicular to the fretboard better. In order for human fingers to benefit ergonomically from multiscale frets, we'd need to have the base of our fretting fingers also slanted an an angle, and it'll only work for one side of the neck and not the other side, because the other side slants in the opposite direction. The only reasons to play multiscale is better pitch clarity and intonation and more balanced tension across the strings--that's it. Another thing that was incorrect about multiscale is that the G string does not really sound any different from standard 34" scale basses, because the 34"-37" fanned frets have the G string at 34", which is identical to a normal 34" scale bass. There's no reason why multiscale will suddenly have more bass on the G string.

fantastic video! but i have to say, with my headphes it was easier to hear the trick when you did it on the low frequencies. on the high ones i really had to concentrate. For me the effect was almost reminescent of a compressor in the way that more notes projected an even fullness, not only on the Estring (for example) and the notes on the a, or d string get thinner. with your eq trick activated i thought that the a and d string were bringing more bass foundation to the table while the estring did not overpower in contrast and it did not sound boomy. One question remains for me: is it important in which order the high-pass and the bass boost (or low pass and high boost) sit? in my teaching room i run a simple alway on HPF in the Master effects loop of my amp to keep things less boomy for my colleagues and that works quite well, but i am yet to gain experience with this stuff live or while recording...
@IvanBassist15 күн бұрын
Do you mean at which frequency or where in the signal chain?

I am not sure where in the circuitry most of the units have the HPF, but I think it is: HPF -> Bass Boost. With that being said, the best way to test this is to try both option and listen to what sounds the best in your context :)

Pultec is also a technique used with a HPF & a little bass boost...i've used a Broughton HPF/LPF pedal in my bass amps effects loop for 6 months now, very happy with the results...i had never heard of it till i watched "Wetter Bass" video where he uses a HPF & a little bass boost to get a tighter bottom end...talking bass obviously...lol...neat when used mixing bass into the rest of the track....

Ivan-- from the title, I thought you were going to talk about the Lowrider bass pedal from Zerofiveaudio. They make a stompbox version of the pultec bass trick, it add thickness to your low-end at specific frequencies. Jean from the Wetterbass turned me onto it.
