Recording Notes

• The bass was recorded in a studio environment, likely with the amp miked to capture its full tonal character.
• Direct input signal may have been blended with the miked cabinet signal for added clarity and punch.
• Compression was probably used to even out the performance and enhance sustain.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Fender Precision Bass or similar instrument with a split-coil pickup.
• Use an Ampeg SVT amplifier or a plugin that emulates its sound.
• Experiment with microphone placement to capture the desired tone from the amp.
• Apply compression to the signal to achieve a consistent and punchy sound.
• Consider blending a direct input signal with the miked amp signal for added clarity.
