Isn't Bass (She) Lovely

[exin]

Hello all you low-enders!

Happy Chinese New Year to all and happy gas-ing this year! Collect more angbao and spend more on gear!

On a sunny afternoon Titus (Z3r0_G) and Jason (exin) decided to get together and have a bass jam. Here's the track for your listening pleasure. I've put it here on the gear page to show off our Jazz basses. =D.

Mistakes are complimentary!

Titus uses a Fender Mexican Jazz Bass and Jason uses a Bacchus Jazz Bass.

Nothing much has been done to the track except for a little compression and reverb to the instruments; so you can hear the natural tone of the basses; minus the way youtube handle audio files too.

Enjoy all you low-enders!

nicely done guys..what amps were you playing through?

Hey bro!

We recorded straight through a Presonus Audiobox USB. Low budget jamming lah. Haha!

I really like the Audiobox USB's preamps; clean and full. If you're looking for a simple, no frills recording interface you can consider this. Don't try running this on Windows Vista though; hell lot of bugs. I spent quite a fair bit of time trying to get the drivers to work properly.

Cool..been the presonus has been on my list of audio interfaces. Looking to put together a simple recording setup this year.

There are a few more audio interfaces you can consider in the Audiobox USB range; Tascam's US-122mkII and US-144mkII gives the Audiobox USB a run for its money. The best part; it runs on USB 2.0. I kinda regretted buying the Audiobox USB; should have gone for the Tascams, i think i was brainwashed by the video on Presonus's website showing the Audiobox being abused by a monster truck and going into the studio afterward; still, it's a good interface, i like the preamps.

If you have a firewire option get it. Presonus FireStudio Mobile is da bomb for a small setup. (firewire ftw!).

Check it out bro.
