Another productive day in the studio, all the bass done! 

Adam plugged in his lovely new Jazz bass with the unis EBS amp. We rigged up a collection of mics and ended up, surprisingly, going with the D112 in the end (alongside a D.I signal too).

The RE20 lost some clarity and although the Audix was super smooth up high, there was too much sub. The D112 combined with the D.I gave a great sound!

After picking the mic we then routed it through the 1176 for some soft compression on the way in, this helps flatten out the signal and keep the bass smooth all the way through. Very very nice!
