Daniel Woodgate

"Bass, track eight, is hard. It was either too slappy, and you heard the strings and the pickups, or it would go so woofy that a system like the 350 couldn't take it at all. The levels would be bashing their heads against the other side and coming round again! For a while I'd put the bass to a patchbay, split out of that to a Fostex powered monitor one side and the A8's four-channel buss Return B. A mic picks up the Fostex speaker sound and goes to a Boss KM2 splitter for level if you've got a low impedance mic, and straight to channel eight. In the end I scrapped the KM2 and used the trim control on the mic input - simple. That way you get a good combined bass sound on to track eight."
