Metal Bass Tone – Recording Heavy Metal Bass Guitar
In this video, I show the whole process of recording Modern Metal Bass Guitar. I talk about Bass Sound, importance of Bass in Metal. Setting up the DI, finding the best sound of your instrument. Using Compression on the way in. Doing multiple takes to provide the best performance, and editing it then. Finally, Modern Metal Bass Sound Production – Bass DI, Bass Amp, Bass Distortion, and blending these layers.
Hope that you find it useful!

i didnt understand the phase relationship thingy can you make a short video explaining just that or anything?
Click on a video about metal bass tone, immediately shows me he has a tremendous tone, and gives me some drums to show how the bass is glued to the kick. Surprisingly there are tons of videos about this topic that don't even offer a solid mix as an example. Thankyou, sounds great.
And btw your technique is solid, yet you claim to not be a bass player, there are thousands of 'bass players" that can't even play fingers, let alone dig in like you do
Excellent vid. Keep them coming. Cheers
Awesome video!
Mike! you're the best!
Perfect explanation, thanks.
