In this Tuesday Tip Jody walks you thru recording Bass using a DI box and also going direct to your audio interface with a ¼” cable. Both methods of recording the bass get a similar sound and helps the mixing engineer when the levels are at a reasonable level for Re-Amping purposes.
Shoutout to: Radial Engineering for their Trim Two Stereo DI.
Chris and Jody tackle the concept of recording bass using Direct Input techniques. Generally reserved for electric bass, but can also be used for acoustic bass if it’s equipped with pickups. They talk about the different methods of DI that you can use. Plus the how’s and why’s of doing DI type recording. It’s also not unlikely that some nonsense will be discussed.
Vocals, vocals, vocals. We mixing engineers always want to make sure we’re getting the proper space for a vocal. In this Tuesday Tip, Jody explains the use of Pre Delay on a lead vocal for a alternative rock song. What to listen for and why he chose what he did for the mix in this tip.
Shoutout: Universal Audio Lexicon 224.
