    nice job. Duff was such an under rated bass player. Everyone talks about Slash, but this band would have sounded so different without Duff. His tone and playing was very funky, bouncy, and crunchy all at the same time. Perfect bass player for gnr.

      Duff and GNR were the reason I started playing bass. One of the first bands I can remember where the bass was as front and center as the lead guitar.

    @bruzzo2002 : Bonjour ! pour avoir ce type de son, le mieux est d'acheter une basse avoir une configuration micros P/J. Vous pouvez ajouter une léger chorus dessus pour avoir un son plus claquant. La basse est directement branchée dans garageband, et j'ajoute simplement le preset "sprakle bass" par dessus, rien de plus.

  • @bassmatt8602
    @bassmatt8602  14 лет назад

    @mattoc61 I use an audio card (terratec dmx 6 fire USB), you can find cheap audio cards, that's the better way to have a good sound. But, you can also plug your bass directly on the mac by using an adaptator (jack to mini-jack). I never tried this, but anyway it's better with an audio device. oh and sorry for my english !

  • @bassmatt8602
    @bassmatt8602  14 лет назад

    @kappta yes, i prefer to play in standard because my bass is setup good in standard, and when i drop strings, neck's got a little different straightness. But now on my new covers I use my aerodyne which is good for other tunings so i can play like originals

  • @bassmatt8602
    @bassmatt8602  14 лет назад

    @bassmatt8602 sinon tu as quoi comme gallien krueger ? pour ton chorus, la bonne méthode c'est mettre son volume général au 3/4, ensuite tu pousse petit à petit la "profondeur (depth)" et l'intensité (rate) jusqu'à ce que ça fasse légèrement ressortir le son, mais pas trop, car quand ça devient trop spacieux c'est pas très beau et ça bouffe beaucoup de graves ! sur le boss j'ai un filtre basses, et ça m'aide énormément pour compenser. Voila voila, hésite pas surtout si tu as des questions

J'ai une 400RB des années 80 (même que la 800RB des années apetite for destruction mais en 200W) j'ai juste mettre le boost et un peu de hi-mid et avec le chorus boss CEB-3 ça sonne terrible ! pour le chorus ça va vraiment dépendre du model car les réglages sont différents, ça se règle à l'oreille...
