My fellow bass players, I hope you're having a great day!

I noticed in the latest poll "recording tips" was pretty high up. I've never given much recording advice so I figured it was about time!

In this video I break recording down to seven simple steps. If you do these things, you'll be surprised at the quality you can achieve without spending too much. Things have changed a lot since the days when only the biggest bands had access to high quality recording capabilities!

As always, let me know if you have any questions or feedback for me, have a great rest of your day and I'll see you in the next lesson!!

Could you please tell me if it is possible also to connect my bass with other physical pedals effects! And what would be the right order of them to connect them to the interface! Thanks in advance!

Hello all! Brand new here from the U.S. (PA) and have my first bass (Ibanez SR1350B 4-string active with Nordy Big Singles). I have a set of questions regarding setup of home recording so I can make the best out of my Plat membership. My Current Home Bass/Sound Setup: 1.) Fender Rumble 40 practice amp 2.) Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 USB-C to high-end Windows PC (Win 11) 3.) Adobe Audition DAW So, assuming I know how to basically navigate the DAW itself, how does this look wired up? What connects to what so I can a) hear myself play and b) record to Audition with a clear signal while playing the backing track at the same time? I don't expect 100% knowledge of my exact setup, of course, but this is all new to me and though I understand it doesn't need to sound like a professional recording for Charles, I want it to at least sound decent while not being a massive burden to run. Thanks in advance for any help. :)

Hey Marck, I'm new here and not sure if anyone replied to you, but the way I understand pedals is to connect to your tuner first, if you have one. A tuner should be first so it gets the cleanest signal possible from your bass for an accurate tune. Make sure the tuner has true bypass (most do) so when it's off it won't degrade the signal as it passes through. There are obviously far more complex ways to do all this, but in a simple setup (like mine), I like to do all the effects "pre-amp," or before the signal goes to the amp/PA. So, I have my Tuner -> volume pedal -> Boss BC-1X compressor -> Samson Direct Box which connects via XLR to our house PA and then a through line back to my amp (Fender Rumble 500) on stage. So, all the effects stack before they get to the house or my amp. That's how I do it, but there are many other ways to do it. I keep it simple for bass: all or at least most effects pre-amp. The direct box (Samson active DB) cleans up the signal very nicely before it goes to our sound board. :) Hope this helps!
