That was great! Lot’s of beautiful basses, but that purple and gold Music Man… it’s like jewelry, very pretty bass!

@John_E

@Al1885

Any tips on how to make this easy will be really appreciated

Painstaking mixing, dual compressors on each track. - lol
Did you play each bass all the way through like I did?
I did the audio ‘splicing’ in the DAW, then just did cuts to the video over the master audio to make it sound smooth.

Great job, very fun!
I like your groupie!

Great tune too.
I tend to forget about HCJr but he is the man!

I need a hat.

Thanks @John_E

Yeah i was going to go down the DAW road but man that’s gonna kill the mood so quick and dirty it is. Lol. Actuality, if I’d set all of the level the same it would have been ok. I’ll redo this one with just music man.

I recorded this on a zoom Q8N 4k I actually have 3 tracks of separate audio attached to each video.
Line 1 Music
Line 2 bass through DI box
Line3 Room XY mic
But doing all audio separately is the luxury I don’t have, lol.

[Al1885]

Thank you.

You are speaking my languages with that picture. It’s a widely known secret of life, Butter.

Thanks @Paul_9207 I’ll redo this one with just music man basses, which gonna be very difficult each bass would only get a few seconds once on a 6 minute songs, lol.

[JerryP]

Great cover @Al1885 ! Nice choice of the song I agree with John; need more HCjr.

[Al1885]

Thanks @JerryP

I actually have a couple from the same album that im working on next month gig.

BTW, i posted a non bass cover of a favorite Beatles song check it out.

Post a cover... Not bass

It seems like there are several members of the forum that have played one or more instruments before picking up the bass. I’d like to see your non bass covers.

[Al1885]

Remember this one? We all love the Hooker song, lol.

@John_E

I did the audio ‘splicing’ in the DAW

i.e. you used a DAW the way it is meant to be used

[terb]

Nice cover

Can’t wait to write my annual report of the thread, and to remember to please write clearly the author and name of the song it saves me a lot of time … otherwise I have to use Shazam everytime to keep a list of each cover, and it does not work everytime.

[howard]

Yeah this has been a good year

[Al1885]

Got it @terb I’m just name the YouTube title differently because I don’t want it to show up in anyone’s search, lol. I’ll go back and fix the songs later.

[terb]

no problem, it’s OK for those ones. but yeah it would be cool for the future covers thanks

[stevesilver925]

Wow! Any lack of smoothness in the editing is overshadowed by fantastic playing and the bass beauty pageant Great stuff!!

[Al1885]

Thank you kindly @stevesilver925

[Lanny]

Mose excellent @Al1885 - So damn smooth and enjoyable! Nailed it!!

[Al1885]

Thanks @Lanny watching your video, and @John_E and @JerryP really got my butt on fire and make the time, lol. I gotta find the way to streamline the process the last video was easy enough.

[Al1885]

I’m not sure if this qualifies as a cover It’s a Jaco inspired ballad piece. I had to make a 2 track as I’m still working on playing a few notes simultaneously and still keep the vibrato, lol.

Here’s Feugo

Fuego

[terb]

That’s cool ! Not sure if the light saturation is here on purpose but I like it

I guess this song could fit to the thread : Post your original compositions

[John_E]

I can realistically work on one tune at a time, maybe mess around with a few, but not be able to record start to end so many.
you are da man @Al1885

[Al1885]

Thabks @terb

It’s not original either, I’ve ingeniously stole it, lol.

Sorry misspoke not ingeniously, shamelessly.
