[wateroftyne]

Mmm... growly...

[beerdragon]

A Ric? something tells me no.

[wateroftyne]

Nah - Jazz...

[Protium]

My Pedulla can sound like that with the treble boosted a bit, nice

Rush without Geddy Lee's voice, the best way to listen to it

[ednaplate]

Brilliant. How on earth did you do it or where did you get it from?

Geddy is God Waldo!

[acidbass]

Sounds almost chorused, with a 5th above added in parts - any idea how he achieved this?

Fame and/or wealth.

Sounds bloody awful, like the strings are several years old & there's a crack in the speaker!

[ARGH]

Thats a really good tone,light flange,compressed a little,a real space filler.

Of course you aint ment to hear it isolated,great Bass often sounds utter sh*t as an isolated track,I think this was a good era in Ged's tone,one that he returned to on Counterparts I believe.

[Mr Fudge]

Geddy Lee is God! What a true great bass rock tone. The chickens are responsible for the tone as well as The main input "noisy bastard" aka his forefinger. I am a massive Rush fan if you have not already guessed.

[ednaplate]

Me too!!!

[wizbat]

ARGH Got It in one!!

[Adrenochrome]

That was good listening as a post-gig chill out.

[Bassassin]

Really good to hear it in isolation, interesting that tonally it doesn't sound the way you would expect when you hear it in the mix. Also a good illustration of how straightforward a lot of his parts actually are - but also how it's all in the detail.

Another enthusiast, in case you hadn't guessed.

Jon.

[wateroftyne]

Great, innit?

the track was isolated from Pop Band, or Rock Star or one of them new-fangled computer games. There's also isolated vocal & drum tracks up there, too.

This, for me, is the pinnacle of Geddy's tone. And he's had a few great ones.

His tone on the new S&A Live DVD is back in this area, after the fizzy messes of the last few DVDs and CDs.

And I was just about to give up. lol. But thats the bassists job laid bare and as for the dug in tone, I must admit I love it, thanks for that, any entwhistle with band removed out there ?

How dare you say that about Gary Lees tone.

There's some similar tracks on Youtube with Chris Wolsentholme's bass lines isolated.
Maybe a good Idea for a new thread?
