I can't get over how big the bass sounds on this record. There's so much low end it's not even funny. I've read stuff about how you do the sine wave trick on your bass tracks. Was it the same case for this album? What was used to record the bass, and would you mind sharing some insight on the processing of the bass? Thanks.

Pretty sure the sine wave thing was only used on the new Emmure record, but don't quote me on that. It's just the right bass, good playing, tight editing with a strong kick and bass relationship. Probably the most difficult thing to get right haha.

Shouldn't have to worry about generating a sine wave until your lowest fundamental starts getting muddy. I'm sure the Emmure album was tuned down to no end.

How do Amber Lamps?
If the sine trick was used or not the bass is fine tuned in melodyne if not programmed.
And in talking general here not for this specific album

Its the sim he uses or at least used to use (although it still sounds like he does)
I use the same sim he does. The sim + C4 is the perfect combo for my bass stuff

Care to share what bass sim you using?
And do you use the sim + sine wave trick or just the sim and C4?
Thx man

I was talking to Ryan Neff (bassist of Miss May I) and he said they used Nigel for the bass tone on Monument. Just FYI

What's up with the cleans in this album? It sounds like the verb was automated so whenever the singer held a longer note, the amount of verb increased and decreased when the note ended so it wouldn't have a long tail. And in between syllables and stuff too, because it sounds like that, though the pronunciation is really clear.
