Recording Notes

• The song's bass tone features a blend of direct input and miked amplifier signals, emphasizing clarity and definition.
• The Roland Dimension D chorus adds subtle width and depth without sounding too processed.
• Likely recorded in a well-treated studio environment to minimize unwanted room reflections.

Recreation Tips

• Start with a Fender Jazz Bass with roundwound strings for a bright, clear fundamental tone.
• Use an Ampeg SVT amplifier or simulator to capture the low-end punch and warmth.
• Apply a touch of chorus using the Roland Dimension D to add subtle width and shimmer. Set the chorus rate and depth low for a natural sound.
• Blend a direct input signal with the miked amplifier signal to achieve the desired balance of clarity and warmth.
• Use a light touch of compression to even out the dynamics without squashing the tone.
