civictiger Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) So where do I go? To the best place on Earth. BassChat!! This is one of my favourite new bands.. they are a newly formed Supergroup. Probably not well known yet as they are a pretty underground style, but I really would love to know what Bass Effect anybody would say the bass uses in parts of this song.. Im thinking some sort of OD but im not too sure. Wondering if I can get a really similar sound through my Sansamp Driver..

Grand Wazoo Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I also can't hear bugger all bass, however in a small fraction of that song when the rest of the band is observing a very short STFU pause I could hear some kind of P bass with a bit of flanger, but for the rest, the youtube quality of it is bad and doesn't come through clearly.

Doddy Posted April 11, 2010 Share Posted April 11, 2010 I'm more interested in what constitutes a 'supergroup' these days. I've not heard of any of the guys or their other bands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
civictiger Posted April 11, 2010 Author Share Posted April 11, 2010 ah damn :\ yeahh it may be due to the youtube quality, I have the actual song on my iPod so I can hear it very well. the bass on that is mixed above the rest of the song, so i thought youtube might be able to hack it but i guess not . well, if it helps, im looking at parts 1:03-1:30 in that part you can hear the bass a bit more clear, even on Youtube due to other instruments and overdubs dropping out. and Doddy, they are all from massive bands within the post-hardcore style, probably some of the biggest bands in that style, to be honest.

civictiger Posted April 11, 2010 Author Share Posted April 11, 2010 okay man, thanks a lot it helps I know he uses an ampeg-cl, with an 8x10 so no doubt he has quite a bit of gain on it to drive it a bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
