ok, so here's a track we recorded for the new album, then sent it away for mix and master

[attachment=61657:NG26___Otherside.mp3]

thing is, distortion was added to it, so how do i get it live?
in the studio i used
punisher (emg goodness)
sansamp rpm (DI'd)
ampeg svt3 (just to power the cabs)
ampeg 115en (miked)
marshall 2 12 gu**ar cab (miked)

i believe the distortion was only added to the guitar cab channel?

was looking at the sansamp rbi or psa1 to try and re create it, obviously i will be splitting the channels to different amps and cabs but am i best to look at guitar distortion or one of these units? is a crossover needed?

low end is more than nicely dealt with with the rpm through the 15 btw!

thankyou my fellow bass chatters!!

So that's three channels of bass then (D.I from the Sansamp, two mics from the bass and guitar cabs)? Plugins or anything from Tools to get that distortion or was it purely from the Sansamp?

there was a touch of overdrive on the sansamp, but not that much - if you can hear it, the lows are quite deep and fairly clean - this was the sound we left it with, then the studio we sent it to has added the extra distortion on the top end.

thats just my opinion, let me know if you think its distorted across the full range.

may need a system with a sub to hear the lows, normal computer speakers don't really give you the depth!

thanks
