Getting extra low end in the mix

[Scarr]

Hi,

I'm looking to add some extra thud to the low-end of my tracks, and I was hoping someone could give me some pointers/suggestions. I'm doing a "rocktronica" type thing, and have been hoping to get that ultra-low sub bass kind of impact that many of the electronic genres have. The idea is to make people's butts physically move, regardless of what the people are actually doing.

I've seen the dbx 120xp popping up in a few producers racks, and have wondered if anyone has had any experience with it. In addition to than that, I'd appreciate any other suggestions anybody has.

Thanks,
Scarr


BTW, I know I posted this in the "The Rack" room under a different name, but I thought this room might be a more appropriate forum/could give me a different kind of input.

....when I have a need to add extra bottom to my tracks or
if I have the need to provide subharmonics below 60hz,I incorporate my Behringer UltraBass which provides clean booming bottom and then compress it so it doesn't overwhelm
my mix. When using the UltraBass with my bass git or kick
drum,I also use the BassLimiter function so that there won't be any bottom distortion while also maintaining that "boominess". I use little or no eq and even employing
the 75hz cut-off switch on my boardwhich also gves me a somewhat "boom-punch" when I want a "clean" bottom.
I guess this technique,can also be accomplished by eq'ing the bass to 60hz and utilizing a lil reverb,but to accomplish that tonality takes experimentation and tweaking.
Prob'ly didn't help you any,but just wanted to share it n-e way!
Peace
