I think my bass sounds uke: direct, I've tried every combo of the gear I've got today and I'm still not that happy. So I'm sharing the clips to get some opinions.
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/1053122/Bass tone tests.rar
16 clips, Pro Tools session or 24 bit wavs. No processing, all are roughly the same level, compress or normalize if you want, feel free to share a processed version.
Bass is Ibanez SR500, interface is Profire 2626
Shooting out:
Profire Hi-Z input
Behringer V-tone Bass (XLR out)
Sansamp Programmable bass driver DI (XLR out)
Rodam DI (XLR out) (this is like a whirlwind active)
Boss pedal bypassed (buffered circuit) into Hi-Z
Roland Space Echo direct out into Hi-Z, Just for fun.
Various settings and EQ flat or Full on the bass. Most of these don't have enough headroom to handle the EQ on full
Trying to figure out if it's the bass or other gear that's giving me the blahs.
Going for a good clean tone here, I'll move onto processing later.
What do you think?
