As a self taught producer, I am happy to say that i discovered these tips by myself. It took me 5 years, you should listen to this man to save your time!
I’m on/off about 2 years in, and so far with how oversaturated the amount of tutorials there are, damn I have had to sift through a lot of Bs. I can say I appreciate this channel for staying objective, even if it’s not My DAW
this taught me more than my music teacher taught me in 4 years
sad
Should've taken art
In school at least in my case they teach you to play other people’s music when they should give you the tools and knowledge to make your own
only reason i chose music is cos i genuinely like music and wanted gear to start making it but my parents only let me buy school stuff now so i figured if I chose music I'd have an excuse to buy ableton live
lol
Short resume.
Tip 1. Add some rhythm to your bass notes.
Tip 2. Add Syncopation (means, set your some of your note offbeat)
Tip 3. Play notes other than the root.
Tip 4. Add octave jump to you bass line
Tip 5. Rhythm and Timing (Move your notes a little to add some movements)
Tip 6. Amp + Filter envelope. ( Change Amp and filter envelope knobs to get some interesting effects)
Tip 7. Play with note lengths. (combine short and long notes. Don't do them all same length)
Tip 8. Introduce melodic Fills (Like drum fills, but bass fills. Add some fill at the end of your melodic phrase)
Tip 9. Variation (instead of just repeat you 2 or 4 bar loop, add some variation on your second half part )
Thanks mate!
Thank you friend.
This was extremely helpful and well made. This literally explained years worth of bass knowlege in 16 minutes.
and this beat is so simple yet so fire swangg ayy

The most appropriate video.....Loved it Keep up the good work!!!!
what
These are all great tips. Next level is learning to write your drums & bass first and structure your track around them. Works for any genre that features those instruments. Before I started doing that, all of my tracks were extremely boring even with solid bass lines.
EXCELLENT TUTORIAL....Answered my long time questions on bassline writing.... Thanks a lot Connor!
this is reaaaallly helps for me as a bass player in my band... Some tips here are very useful to arrange my bassline for more expressive
Love the simplicity and the easy way the ideas are explained. Great job
Thank you - very helpful indeed!
a great and simple tutorial
as a complete noob it looks quite simple. i will have to see how things will develop with me...
I am sure this will help
Excellent tutorial. Showing the before and after is very effective!
totally by coincidence I was using this bass line yesterday (the original) and decided I needed to spice it up and came here on accident (sic) eg looking for sample manipulation and then just picking titles that interested me - so thanks - oh, and the instrument you have is a million times better than mine !
Thank you - superb!!!
Whoa, thanks a lot man, this helps not only with bass lines, but with everything
My bass techniques improved drastically. Thank you so much!
This REALLY helped me, man
Great video! Thanks for sharing this stuff with us
No problem :)
Very nice tips!!
After watching 5 useless / filler videos... I found this one! Thanks man.
Great video! Focusing an practical basics and very well presented. You made an immediate subscriber. One area where I struggle is working with effectively with glide/slide/pitch bending in basslines. If you'd included that, you'd probably have the best "basics" bass tutorial on the internet! Well done. ;-)
thank u for including the late note swag
This is wonderful, wonderful knowledge. Thanks for your efforts in sharing this
Will use these tips asap.
Great video. Can you do more videos similar to these on other topics? Perhaps on delays, reverb, etc? Great stuff.
Absolutely! Much more coming :)
Great systematic case distinction. I love it and it helps me a lot! Thank you very much!
This was a great video; real straight forward. There are a few vids on this topic but I preferred yours. You covered pretty much all the basses for that genre of music too.
The only thing I want to know is how can you use a "synth bass roll up/down" .
Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis used it in 99% of their slow songs back in the days.
an actual good beat tutorial video
A very helpful video.. .and thanks for posting. It's well on the way to being a go-to 'cheat sheet' on developing interesting basslines. Suggestions: The syncopation & variations in note duration might be consolidated into one tip about 'variations'... and it would be helpful to mention something about using velocity on individual notes, which would model an electric bassist's attack on the strings (opening the filter according to velocity, for example). Another useful idea would be how to use glide/portamento between notes, as the bassist' s fingers may not directly hit the note 'directly' on-pitch.
How do you feel about keeping the bass note 'fills' away from drum fills - is it too much happening all at the one time? Would the music be better served by playing a 'simpler' bass fill and let the drum fill be the focus?
Thanks again for the very helpful.. and inspirational video.
Awsome! Great tips! Thanks a lot.
This is the sauuuuucee thanks

@@EDMProd thanks
Fantastic vid, thanks!
Great video, i have learned a lot in this one.
The video and audio doesn't seem to be in sync though.
Glad you like it! Unfortunately recording the screen, mic and audio from Ableton is heavy on the CPU, so the buffer size has to be turned up high which introduces a little latency :(
So good. This is great.
Your tutorial was very helpful thanks a lot !
Thank you for this video! Super helpful and just what I needed. Keep it up! :)
Excellent, useful information thank you!
This must be the most easiest but useful tutorial... Thank you so much

AMAZING!!!
Thank you for sharing this Knowledge.
Keep Up the Good Work.
Cheers
Glad you liked it!
this is the tutorial I was looking for! well explained and it helped me A LOT
Awesome to hear Cecilia :)
Not an easy art to master especially nowadays with the one man band. Back in the days you got a guy on bass and all he does is think about only bass 24/7 and he masters the bass. Thats why I think bands make much better music. You can make decent basslines programming the way you do but I think masterful basslines gotta be played live w no quantization perhaps on an actual bass instrument, but at least played live.
Nice thanks
you dropped this 👑 help so much🔥 ( specially for beginners like me )
Learned a ton - thanks!
Glad we could help!
This really helped out my bass playing!

is it necessary that our bass must follow lead rhythm 1 or 2 octave down?
Awesome Vid, What kind of bass is that?
Sounds like wobble
