7 Bass Lines to take YOU from ZERO to HERO (Beginner friendly)
I am making a very nice recording, this time in the K Desktop Environment, on one of my master tapes.
I'm recording Herbie Hancock I'll make another post separately about that. The manner in which the Bass player is handling the double bass is amazing!
This is a very well explained video about a complex yet interesting device to use on your guitar or base amplifier which enables you to drop the need to connect a speaker cabinet.
Added an alternate performance of "Food Noise" to my "Lunchbox" playlist. I had recorded it the same day but just got around to normalize and upload it.

I'm putting some remix, edits and alternate takes on my "Lunchbox" playlist.
Just put up "LFO Infusion Tisane (with Caffeine Beats)" adding drums to my original LFO Infusion Tisane track.
Drums are Univox SR-95 aka Korg Mini Pops 7 aka Jean-Michel Jarre signature drum machine (I think Michael Garrison used the Univox version)

The main purpose of this auxiliary row of #eurorack #modules is to sequence notes CVs and modulation CVs for my 2600. S&H & LFOs are great for some modulations, but sometimes you need specific voltages in a specific sequence. Enter the #behringer #arp2500 1027 Clocked Sequential Control Module. It can sequence 3 different groups of up to 8 steps (position gates allows resetting the sequence at any step, although on all 3 sequences at once).
More than 8 steps? see next

Kurze Frage an die Audionerds hier: kann der Behringer XENYX QX2442USB die Submix-Kanäle auch über USB zur Verfügung stellen, oder nur Main?
I hope I manage to get this piece of music more finished than anything I've ever done before (never even halfway finished a single track in the 26 years of faffing about with music), so that I can show off how awesome this Behringer 2600 can sound. I'm a bit in love with this particular patch.

Here is Part II of "Crawfish Bucket Brigade" - same sequence on the Korg SQ1 as for Part I, but you'll have to admit, the two tracks are fairly different. #synth #semimodular #behringer #neutron #livetronica #electronica #soundcloud #electronicmusic #live #patching

Some do ask really good questions too. #soundcloud #music #synth

"Crawfish Bucket Brigade Part I" was all done on the #Behringer #Neutron. It is monophonic, (well, technically paraphonic 2 voice), but the filter can be mixed separately and then there is the noise source and the bucket brigade delay itself brings another layer, and depending on the mix level, a variety.

"Crawfish Bucket Brigade".
Another track added to my Lunchbox playlist. And another food related title, with a link to #synthesis and #effects
This one is the first part of two tracks I recorded on the #behringer #neutron, using the same basic sequence from a #korg #sq1, but with a different feel between the two parts.
No drums, as I relied completely on the Neutron 2 oscillators for all sound generation. #music #soundcloud #livetronica #electronica #electronicmusic

Woo! All my custom string sets from #DRstrings finally came in. Along with the tapewounds from #LaBella. Maybe tonight I'll throw them on.
Also, bought a Greco GS940 #semihollow #shortscale #bass that I'm going to convert into a #fretless #cello. That'll arrive in a few weeks.
Another #electricBass will be on it's way soon. Details to follow.
Oh. I decided on a whim to buy a new used #Behringer graphicEQ and #DBX compressor+limiter+noise gate. I feel like I stole them they were so cheap but, I know they were sitting around for a long time.
Traded in a hard case that came w/ my #Ibanez bass.
It's certainly been a #NGD #newGearDay !
Bass Guitar Amplifier Adjustment
Adjusting a bass guitar amplifier involves setting the EQ (equalization) and other controls to get the best tone for your style, venue, and preferences. Here’s a step-by-step guide to dialing in your bass amp settings:
1. Set Initial Controls
Gain: Start with the gain at a low level. Increase it gradually until you hear distortion, then back off until the sound is clean. If you prefer a grittier tone, leave the gain slightly higher.
Volume: Set the volume to a comfortable level. Adjust it based on your playing environment, such as practicing alone or playing with a band.
2. Adjust EQ (Bass, Mid, Treble)
Bass: Controls the low-end frequencies. Increasing the bass can add warmth and depth. For a more defined sound, avoid cranking the bass too high, as it can make the sound muddy.
Mids: Mids are essential for a clear and punchy tone, especially in a mix. Higher mids add clarity and presence; reducing them can create a scooped sound often used in slap bass.
Treble: Controls the high-end frequencies. Increase it for more clarity and definition, or roll it back for a warmer sound.
3. Use Shape/Contour Controls (if available)
Many bass amps have a "shape" or "contour" control that adjusts the mids for different tones. Experiment to see how these affect your sound, especially if you want a quick, scooped tone.
4. Experiment with Extra Features
Compression: Some amps have a built-in compressor, which smooths out your dynamics and adds sustain. Start low, increasing only until it’s just noticeable.
Drive or Overdrive: If you like a more aggressive, gritty tone, use the drive/overdrive knob to add subtle distortion.
5. Room Acoustics
Adjusting your EQ based on the room’s acoustics is important, especially for live gigs. Rooms with a lot of bass resonance may require turning down the low-end or cutting certain frequencies.
6. Test and Fine-Tune
Play different styles and techniques, like slap, fingerstyle, and pick, to see how your tone holds up.
I am going to link a long article here which I need to post on another Fediverse account
This post does not come from my brains; I've copied it over after I've seen that everything checks out as factual.

"Hot Sauce Feedback"
Another experiment in #minimalist #ambient #music with the portable #Behringer #Neutron. The built in delay & distortion built into it helps a lot, I don't have to carry much to make complete tracks. Sequenced from the #Korg SQ1. Recorded in the great outdoors directly to a Tascam digital recorder. Great North Carolina weather recently, so these sessions are doubly enjoyable.

Well, as a follow-up to my 909 / 808 poll, here’s the result of much humming and hawing.
Love it so far, particularly its size and the nice interplay between closed and open hats. You can really make delicious grooves.
Niggles: I wish it had the 909’s tight snare and rim shot. Wish the tom tuning was a bit wider, and that toms had decay control. Also wish drum settings were saved with song or pattern saves, but that’s asking for something not in the original.
