Similar to this. If you can write the parts out like a left and right hand piano line you will see visually where they meet rhythmically. Then you start to think of it as one part rather than two in parallel.

How was Your rehearsal last morning or night ?
kwmlondon replied to nilorius's topic in General Discussion
Had a good rehearsal last night. Pirate Studios are pretty good and the air con and back line all worked fine. The Rumble 500 was really sounding great- cheap feeling controls but really serves up the sonic goods! The guitarist and main songwriter tried out a couple of new numbers and one if them defo has potential. I’m not sure about the other, too similar to some of his other ones but good to work on. The Dingwall is just absolutely bloody epic. I’m growing to love it more and more each time I play it. For the first time I’m really starting to explore creative potential of tone shaping on a bass. This Neve unit is so musical- boosting the low end a couple of notches when using the Bridge pickup on its own makes the thing really usable and even whacking the Bass up full is still musical! Bonkers but the other guys LOVED 100% bass! It was hard telling them I’m stepping away when my evening classes start in late September but hopefully we’ll get a couple of gigs in by then. Getting home was a total nightmare. I was planning to get the overground back from Camden but signaling problem s meant I ended up walking all the way home from London Bridge which took an hour. Got in at 1am and had to do a 10k race this morning!!!! very tired now -
My go to DI pedal for a lot of years but I'm now using IEM and using an alternative dedicated pedal. No damage, no issues, just a bit of velcro attached to the base. Much more than just a direct box, the SansAmp Bass Driver DI is capable of dialing up big vintage tube tones, bright modern slap sounds, gnarly distortions, and all in between. Three different outputs to drive power amps, recording desks, PA mixers, or simply enhance your current rig. Controls include Presence for definition and upper harmonic content; Blend to combine the proportion of direct signal and SansAmp circuitry; and active EQ specifically tuned for bass with 12dB of cut or boost. THE CONTROLS The controls offer a broad range of traditional bass amp sounds, including such meaty styles as Bassman® and SVT®, as well as raunchy, crunchy overdriven sounds that would typically require a multitude of effects units. PRESENCE controls the amount of definition and upper harmonic content. DRIVE adjusts the overall gain structure and overdrive. LEVEL regulates the XLR and effected 1/4″ output levels. BLEND allows you to mix the direct bass signal with SansAmp Tube Amplifier Emulation circuitry (which is particularly useful for basses equipped with piezo pickups). BASS & TREBLE are active EQ controls, specifically tuned for bass guitar, that cut or boost +/- 12dB. For studio and live applications, SansAmp Bass Driver DI is engineered with three outputs: an effected XLR, and effected 1/4″, and a parallel, uneffected 1/4″. The footswitch activates the Tube Amplifier Emulation circuitry. Disengaging the circuitry enables you to use SansAmp Bass Driver DI as a standard active transparent direct box. Sample style settings include Bassman®, SVT®, King’s X, Slap, Reggae, Crimson. Settings are also included for Chapman Stick and Acoustic guitar.

FS / FT MarkBass TTE 801 PayDay Price Drop Now £425
Stealth posted a topic in Amps and Cabs For Sale
Bought this recently from Bass Direct whose write up I have shamelessly stolen (`Hope you don’t ming Mark!) it’s a great amp and stupidly loud but not quite the sound in my head right now. I have fitted a full set of brand new JJ valves 3 x ECC83 1x ECC81 The Price includes UK postage or Local delivery. Trades……..Cash either way 5 String Bass Unlined Fretless Genz Benz Streamliner EBS Reidmar 750 Orange Little Bass Thing MarkBass Rocker Try Me ??? Heres all the in-depth stuff The TTE 801 is the amp of choice for those who want a warm vintage tone with stadium-rocking power. As with the 500W version, the TTE 8001’s vintage vibe was carefully engineered with features such as an classic-style tube preamp, a tube compressor, a simple 3-band passive EQ section, a “Colour” filter (a tubeadaptation of the famous Markbass VLE control), but gets amplified by a potent 800W power amp that features our innovative Tube Technology Emulator, giving even more tubey warmth. Current technology is brought together with classic tone concepts in a head that looks and sounds vintage—but features some special adaptations of the Markbass innovations that put the brand on the map! The TUBE HEART of the TTE 801 makes this head an incomparable vintage sounding amp!!! But there's no better way to understand “Modern Vintage” than to plug in the amps and let the tone explains itself! This amp is presented in fantastic condition with a gig bag included. PREAMP PREAMP: Tube TUBES: 3x ECC83 + 1x ECC81 (compressor) POWER AMP POWER AMP: TTE (Tube Technology Emulator) POWER: 800W RMS @ 4 ohms / 500W RMS @ 8 ohms EQ (passive) BASS MIDDLE HIGH CONTROLS COMPRESSOR COLOUR (TUBE-DRIVEN VLE) OUTPUTS LINE OUT: balanced XLR, max. voltage 20 Vpp SPEAKER OUT: two speakon/1/4" combo OTHER WEIGHT: 14.11 lbs / 6.4 Kg WIDTH: 18.90 in. / 48 cm DEPTH: 10.24 in. / 26 cm HEIGHT: 7.87 in. / 20 cm POWER REQUIREMENT: 100/120V; 230V; 240V --

At the risk of just recommending what I have, the EBS Classic Session 60 is a great little amp. Looks like there's one for sale here (no conflict of interest to declare!), and one at Bass Direct.

Okay, so I've had the Aguilar AG 4M humbucker put back in, but not the single coil, and just as Dave Boonshoft at Aguilar says, it sounds just like a late 70's model now. Now that's a sound I really like! -

It's difficult, but it's a skill and can be learned. Like you strumming an acoustic and singing is fine but... I'm getting better at it and the bands I'm know my position - give me a microphone and I will do what I'm comfortable with. I started about 40 years ago doing the 'yeah's in Moni Moni. Ironically I'll be doing them again tonight! Some songs are easier than others and it's not always obvious what will work. The very regular pulse of Heroes but I struggle with the 'by the wall' etc. Yet the other day I was singing the chorus to Jean Genie while improvising fills... I think the problem is they often use similar parts of the brain, especially if, like me, you 'hear' the melody in your head to play it more than remembering a fingeting.

I've found this approach really helps for my basic attempts at singing. Once I have largely got both parts down in isolation I start identifying which note in the bassline is the cue to start singing a particular word or line.
