I'm a total beginner at all this..i'm a poor guitar player .. no money for bass
I'm trying to get a good pitch shifting guitar--bass tone. Was wondering if you could take a listen and advice me on how i can improve on the tone. Also let me know what i can do to improve the guitar sound/drum sound/mix/playing etc.

The bass is a guitar into reapitch-->amplitube svx
drums is just ez drummer
and guitar is lepou lecto and your 2x12 orange mic
thanks

You will never get a pitched-down guitar to sound like a real bass. Ive tried many times.

Did you compress the hell out of it after you pitched/processed it?

Once I started working with real bass guitars I learned just how much easier it is to get a good tone.
 
Program a bass with a good sounding library, play the same part on the guitar pitch it down one octave with a good pitching plugin such as melodyne. Then you get some human feel too it. Works great!

This.
Ive tried that many times too. You could pitchshift guitar octave lower with your default DAW PS audio process, compress it with higher ratio, maybe add another layer for grit but the results never replace real bass.
crillemannen: with his budget I thing he hardly buy melodyne and some decent bass samples like Trillian. I rather buy real bass.
