acidbass Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Sounds almost chorused, with a 5th above added in parts - any idea how he achieved this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutToPlayJazz Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Sounds bloody awful, like the strings are several years old & there's a crack in the speaker! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARGH Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Thats a really good tone,light flange,compressed a little,a real space filler. Of course you aint ment to hear it isolated,great Bass often sounds utter sh*t as an isolated track,I think this was a good era in Ged's tone,one that he returned to on Counterparts I believe.

Mr Fudge Posted December 12, 2008 Share Posted December 12, 2008 Geddy Lee is God! What a true great bass rock tone. The chickens are responsible for the tone as well as The main input "noisy bastard" aka his forefinger. I am a massive Rush fan if you have not already guessed.

Bassassin Posted December 13, 2008 Share Posted December 13, 2008 Really good to hear it in isolation, interesting that tonally it doesn't sound the way you would expect when you hear it in the mix. Also a good illustration of how straightforward a lot of his parts actually are - but also how it's all in the detail. Another enthusiast, in case you hadn't guessed. Jon.

wateroftyne Posted December 13, 2008 Author Share Posted December 13, 2008 Great, innit? the track was isolated from Pop Band, or Rock Star or one of them new-fangled computer games. There's also isolated vocal & drum tracks up there, too. This, for me, is the pinnacle of Geddy's tone. And he's had a few great ones. His tone on the new S&A Live DVD is back in this area, after the fizzy messes of the last few DVDs and CDs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matty Posted December 14, 2008 Share Posted December 14, 2008 There's some similar tracks on Youtube with Chris Wolsentholme's bass lines isolated. Maybe a good Idea for a new thread? Isolated Bass parts.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
