  • Hey guys!
    First video on my new channel is a compilation of some of my favourite Muse basslines.
    All the bass in this video is solely recorded by me through various effects pedals, into a MarkBass SuperPro DI Box, and an M-Audio FastTrack Pro Interface.
    The drums were either taken from Multi-Track recordings or recreated by me. The guitar in Hysteria and SS is also from the Multi-tracks. There is no other bass in the video other than what I recorded myself.
    Pedals used:
    -EHX/Sovtek Black Russian Big Muff
    -Gromtech Effects Aminato (Human Gear Animato Clone)
    -Prunes and Custard clone
    -Boss OC2 Octaver
    -Boss LS2 (x2)
    I will be putting together some tutorials on how to get various sounds soon, so let me know which ones you would like to see first!
    Thanks for watching and please subscribe :)
    A few people have been asking me, you can buy the Gromtech Human Gear Animato Clone here:

    If you have any questions regarding any sounds feel free to email me at musebasssounds@gmail.com

      I was using 10 year old factory strings in those recordings, might be the reason for a bit of darkness - and it could've done with a bit of EQing
      3 channels on most, KOC and SS had 2 and I think that's all

    The Handler and Dead Inside, although I'm pretty sure it's an Akai Deep Impact he uses on Dead Inside, but I'm curious what you came up with.

    • @Corvid
      @Corvid 7 лет назад

      Dead inside is identical to Hysteria: Clean and a hint of Big Muff, that's it for the bass guitar! That tone is supported by a synthesiser part mirroring the bass exactly. You could immitate the sound with a Deep Impact, but Chris really doesn't use it much, it's a VERY distinctive sounding pedal, you can hear it a mile off. Synth parts are so variable that Muse use them quite frequently to add high end to the bass (as per Hysteria, TIRO, Dead Inside).
      There's a video of them live at the Mayan 2015 I think, you can REALLY clearly hear the synth part, it's turned up a little too loud in the mix. It's obviouisly mixed in far, FAR better on the studio version to the point where you can barely hear it, it becomes one with the bass (as they intended it to). Same goes for Hysteria! There's the odd show where they turn up the synth track too high, and you can hear it's absolutely identical to the album, backing up Chris playing the usual Muff/Animato/Clean rig. The modern tone is a bit weak and treble light, but on the odd ocassion they've absolutely NAILED it... Glastonbury 2004 was THE best Hysteria bass tone I've hear. Sounds to me like they actually ran the synth track through his amp, as if it were a bass guitar, which made it sit perfectly with the bass.
