Музыка

Today we look at a cool bass tracking technique where you retain your direct signal and mess with an amp. it's cool, trust me.

    All the pros use a mic plus a DI to record bass. Just remember to flip the phase on one of them or you'll lose some low end (unless of course your phase is already lined up, which rarely happens)

    Are the D'Addario xlr to 1/4 inch adapters also the impedence converters or are not all of those adapters created equal?

    @Made on Tape Dude, thank YOU! I was going to order the $8 D'Addario one and something told me the tip being trs wasn't right because the PortaTwo is unbalanced, correct? So I'm taking your tip and getting the Whirlwind little Imp and while I'm at it maybe get the Hosa brand one too and see which one is better quality. The Hosa MIT-435 says it's designed to match 200R output impedance to 50K input impedance. Is that what the little Imp does too? I can't find the specs on that one.

    Жыл бұрын

    yes you should mostly ignore them. just don’t crank the volume or send high levels of sub bass to the speaker. if you’re looking for low end (70 Hz or below), you won’t get it with most guitar amps

    Recording bass through a guitar amp? I'm way ahead of you. I converted the Electro-Harmonix MIG-50's Marshall-like circuit to the bass spec so I can use it as a practice and recording bass amp with the right cabinet. I won't be needing a Darkglass pedal when I'm using this as a send effect.

    Why is a reamp necessary?

  • @MadeOnTape

    @MadeOnTape

    Жыл бұрын

    it’s not necessary if you have a splitter for your instrument and one goes into DI and the other goes to amp. but, once something is recorded, the signal is line level, so i used the reamp to show how you can dial in tones after you recorded the DI. the reamp converts line level to instrument level

Moi qui suis en train de finaliser ma dernière petite composition, (without TR505 lol), vous motivez ma détermination à améliorer mes sons! Je souhaite que 2023 nous suggère les meilleures inspirations qui soient, au nom de la MUSIQUE et du partage qu'elle prodigue. D'ici là, passez de très bonnes fêtes de fin d'année `Made on Tape` (P.S: j'arrête de me servir de `GoogleTranslet` parce que ça désaccorde les mots ce truc🤨Alors débrouille-toi pour ^translet^ lolll) Bien amicalement et très musicalement 🎵 : ))))
