The second instrument we recorded was the bass guitar. The bass was recorded in the dead room, with 2 mics recording the amp’s output; A D112 dynamic, and an M201 dynamic. We also used a D/I box to handle any impotence that would’ve come from the bass. The D/I was put through a Sony compressor with a 5:1 ratio to get it’s levels consistent. The phase of the D/I signal was inverted to give a fuller sound overall. When recording, we used pre roll which plays the track without recording for a selected time to give the player some idea of where they were coming in.
