This is a cool video- a mashup of older ones with a central focus. Also very timely as I’ve been wanting to grow bass recording/ mixing skills! Thanks for all you do, Warren.

[@Joey-rp5vg]

Really great video. Bass is so important that if you get the recording right then your off to the races as opposed to being on the back foot. Much appreciated.

[@Producelikeapro]

Very well said Joey!

[@spitfiremusic3997]

Vocalist sounds like Kings of Leon. That's a good thing.

[@Producelikeapro]

Glad it's a good thing!

[@spitfiremusic3997]

Nothing wrong with some Kings Of Leon!

[@spitfiremusic3997]

It certainly is@@Producelikeapro

Using a pick always adds consistency. [insert bass player joke]

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha Bass player joke? What could you mean? Wait I was a bassplayer for a while!

[@TheLastMoomin]

@@Producelikeapro 😆
We all have to start somewhere..
Seriously though, I found a pick works best when recording bass for 3 reasons:
*Consistency
*Fidelity/Attack
*It sounds more like a guitar (the best instrument).

[@Producelikeapro]

Haha thanks for the breakdown!@@TheLastMoomin Especially the last point! Haha

[@splashesin8]

[@Producelikeapro]

Thanks ever so much!

[@WestOfBen]

What bass on the first track? Sounds Rickenbacker-ish. I would like to have heard more of that track and how it fitted in the mix.

[@Producelikeapro]

Hmm it might be!

[@serpentdove6964]

Would a dynamic mic be a good option to record the bass amp or stick with condensor? If so, what would be a decent dynamic mic to use?

[@Producelikeapro]

People love RE20’s for that

[@HowlinAndyDE]

What's the Song at 9:37... that's kind of the style i like. This Video helped me a lot since my bass sounds really weak when i record it.

[@oleksandrpozniak]

Believe it or not I actually use reverb on the bass

[@Producelikeapro]

Geoff Emerick used to put reverb on Paul McCartney's bass!

[@plapclips6799]

Reverb on bass can be amazing

[@plapclips6799]

Great for Motown, Stax and Atlantic bass recordings

[@Producelikeapro]

Agreed 100%@@plapclips6799

[@Producelikeapro]

Exactly@@plapclips6799

[@MrBikboi]

6:45 seriously on their phones with Cameron Webb the legend talking, yeesh. That's embarassing.

[@bassface2316]

IMHO dude needs to cut the ghost notes and play for the song........keep it simple!

[@Producelikeapro]

We all hear things differently!

[@alekp6822]

Meanwhile is take 352 in
their session :)

[@MarkMikelVideos]

These videos are pretty useless to me. Unless I have the tons of equipment that you find in the video, I have to find my own way.

[@Producelikeapro]

There's lot's of inexpensive gear here too!

[@Producelikeapro]

One of the guys has a Yamaha Console he bought for $500!

[@Producelikeapro]

There are great amp similators and Cabinet IRs you can use pretty inexpensively and create similar tones. It's more about the techniques and the mindset than about the gear!

[@Producelikeapro]

I've also done a lot of videos recording bass using a $300 or less interface

[@NewHopeAudio]

The principles in these clips are pretty universal. You don’t need hardware. With stock plugins and these techniques and signal chains, you can get great sounds. 😊

[@plapclips6799]
