Bass sound samples (Garage Band content)

[Pernax]

Hi guys,

 

Here's a Garage Band "Bass Taster" file with me playing a simple riff with all my basses using all the different pickup configurations. Why? Because it was fun to do . I used Garage Band and a MBox 2 Mini interface to record the samples. Note that there's some variety with volume levels, which can effect the perceived sound.

 

The basses used in the session are:

Finlandia Instruments Custom 5, Seymour Duncan J+MM (alnico), Aguilar OBP-3 (flat)

Finlandia Instruments Custom PJ, Active EMG

Ibanez BTB406

G&L L-2500

 

The Custom 5 had really fresh strings, the other basses had used strings.

Here's a clip (mp3) of all the basses playing the riff 2 times, using both pickups fully on.

 

Here's a clip (mp3) of all the basses, using the bridge pickup (in parallel mode where applicable)

 

Here's a clip (mp3) of all the basses, using the neck pickup (in parallel mode where applicable)
