i just can't seem to get a strong enough sound when recording bass guitar directly in to a track. anyone got any good tips for tweeking any of the patches to really bring the bass out without swamping the rest of the song.

note: i havn't got access to an amp a present.

It doesn't sound like you're in need of a bass amp if you are looking to record on the PS-02. If you are using the preset patches, I found that they were weak, and I don't use them. But if you fiddle with the amp and speaker cabinets, there are a couple there that work really well.

I am assuming that you have adjusted the volume of the effect patch by increasing the "total", and if that is not enough then increase the "EQ level".

The PS-02 DOES work good for Bass so keep tweeking and good luck.

I have been having the same problem trying to get a hot bass tone to track well. I'll have to try tweaking.

cheers guys!

its was simple in the end....

starting with the finger bass patch i boosted the level to 27 and turned the high EQ down a bit and it sounds fantastic! big rich sound....works just fine with a pick as well.

good work fellas!
 
 


Zoom Palmstudio with Bass Pod?October 22 2001, 8:28 PM 

Has anyone done any recording with a bass POD? I have done some with a bypass patch(everything turned off as talked about in earlier posts) and I am pleased with the results but I am still new to recording bass. Just curious for tips and how other people are running processors(guitar/bass/synths) through the palmstudios.
