Misunderstanding - Genesis

I’m coming brother ;-)

Hi Jo-Anne and welcome. Love the vocals:-)))

Thank you all for your invitation to participate and for your kind words. Looking forward to seeing this collab progress...

@CyberBass: Hi Rob, no rush. Quick question for you. Do you think there would be a way to have 2 combined sounds coming from one bass recording -- i.e. one with the main bass tone and another one that picks up the higher harmonics to sound more like a guitar tone (mimicking 2 separate tracks)? I'm guessing that there may be a way to use EQ or some kind of effect pedal. Without an effect pedal, what I'd try is duplicate the recorded bass track, apply a high-pass filter and offset it by a few milliseconds (or use a bit of Chorus).

@cyberbass - I have zero experience with octaver pedals but if I were a guitarist or bassist, I'd probably have one of those (for live use): https://www.guitarworld.com/fe........atures/best-octa

We can do some DAW work once you've recorded. This should be fun... Or we ask a guitarist to play the guitar part but it's so simple that we may not easily find someone willing to do it (unless you decide to undust your own guitar :)...

@Eric (@pcderic) : Hey Eric, yeah I often have a "2-channel" output from my bass gear (like Geddy does!). I also have an octaver but I hoestly don't think it fits in too many songs. It sounds like you are talking about a delay though? I don't have one of those. I like to keep the bass simple. I would def be using compression and sustain to fill out the bottom end.

But we can try with an octaver on one channel for sure. It's pretty effed up sounding to my ear lol

@Eric (@pcderic) : Some octaver there https://bandhug.com/v/44fGNX

@Eric (@pcderic) : oh yeah…no way in hell I’d play this on guitar. I know my lane lol

@CyberBass: On Thriller, you're using the octaver to get a lower octave correct (sounds cool BTW)? Can your pedal octave up (assuming it was a pedal)? I assume that you don't have that much control on the tone? My guess is offline work may be better. Sounds like you've been following Geddy, with your "effed-up" wording LOL.

@Eric (@pcderic) : my effin life! The octaver is what it is. I think intensity is all I can adjust.

Sounds like you need to find a guitar player

@CyberBass: It's possible but let's just try with bass to see how it'll sound w/o guitar. I have a feeling it'll sound full enough.

This was just geeking out.

Thanks Rob. We're not moving, you come join us when you can.

Hi John, perfect track, perfect drumming, great sound! No change needed. Thanks so much for such a fast response! I kind-of figured it'd be your kind of song. Yes, she said she wants to do this one. Hey, who am I to argue? :-)
