Recording Notes

• The bass was likely recorded with a direct input signal blended with a miked amplifier to capture both clarity and warmth.
• The Neumann U47 was positioned to capture the full low-end of the Ampeg B-15.
• The bass performance features a combination of fingerstyle and pick playing to achieve a dynamic and groovy sound.

Recreation Tips

• Use a Fender Precision Bass or similar bass with flatwound strings for a rounder tone.
• Combine a DI signal with a miked Ampeg B-15 or a similar tube amp to capture both direct clarity and amp warmth.
• Use a Neumann U47 or a similar large-diaphragm microphone to capture the full low-end frequency range.
• Experiment with fingerstyle and pick playing to match the original bass performance.
