Heavy grooves, a long time work in progress, nearly finished!

[Mattayus]

Unfortunately it's pitch-shifted guitar at the moment as I had to sell my bass but it's not massively dissimilar to my normal bass tone anyway, just a different voicing

pitch shifted guitar sweet, sounds good. Would you say the reason why this groove is so heavy is because of the bass
guitar'? bass boost around 60hz-100hz? or would you say the sub kicks are the reason why its so bassy?

I don't own a Bass-guitar and it would be really helpful if you could explain how you processed your "bass".
Because I think it sounds very nice, although it's only a pitch shifted guitar!

I'm not really a fan of the modern kick sound with lots of subs. I take a huge chunk (nearly all) subs out of my kicks but leave the "punch" frequencies in, but then take those frequencies out of the bass. So a little dip around 80-150 in the bass usually does the trick, which also means you can have the bass driven hard without getting out of control. Multiband on that frequency works a treat too!

Yeah sure thing man. Basically shift it down 12 semitones (obviously), then just treat it like a bass! i.e. run it through whatever amp sim + impulses you usually use, coupled with a c/p onto a distorted track for more bite, bit of EQ and compression + limit and hey presto. The only thing I find you have to do to a pitch-shifted guitar that you wouldn't generally do with bass is slam it harder because it's flubbier and less consistent.

Yeah sure thing. I thought that thread had died and everyone seemed to just ignore all my help so I just deleted it
