I`ll start mixing a song this evening and it has 2 short bass solos in it. This is my first time mixing a bass solo, so what should I try first to make it sound good and fit in the mix ?
Bass is DI from the amp just over a set of open chords from the guitars. We have not recorded regular bass on that part.
I want a smooth sound,I think having too much bass in it will make it sound pumpy and unpleasant...but where do I get my low end from in that part ? Maybe a synth playing along to the guitars or should I try eq the guitars...
Also what effects ? I thought maybe a chorus/flanger thing...
