mark_random Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 So, as well as running the bass department here at GAK, I also play in a punk band. We're called Corrigan and we have just been in to the studio with [url="http://www.petermiles.com"]Peter Miles[/url] (Sonic Boom Six, Howards Alias, The Steal) to record songs for some 7"s. Check them out at [url="http://www.myspace.com/corrigantheband"]our MySpace.[/url] As for bass, I used my trusty 2001 USA P-Bass straight in to a SansAmp. Simple but effective!

jim_bass Posted November 24, 2009 Share Posted November 24, 2009 (edited) Nice one - liking the music. Listened to both songs on your myspace. Loving the sound of the bass on the intro to 'Just don't know' - [s]What bass/amp did you play to recording it?[/s] - Maybe I should read you post before asking stupid questions. Thats sounds great for SANSAMP - How much of your tone do you put down to the bass and how much to the sansamp? - whats the P sound like straight in?

We just used a SansAmp on the day becuase it was already plugged in! I'm sure I could have found a very similar tone on another direct recording device, such as a Pod or some software. We did consider re-amping through a 70s SVT head but once we had rigged it all up, the sound was so similar to the SansAmp, we decided to leave it as it was. Simplicity, it seems, is the key!
