Make a copy of the bass track. On one of your bass tracks, low pass filter it so all you hear is the low end. On the other, high pass filter it so you hear only the brightness, string noise, etc. Bring up the high pass filtered track just enough for presence but not enough so that it interferes with the vocals.
Oh-oh....Here we go again. We've been through this before. Ugh!
Making a copy of your bass track does nothing but make it louder. Eq'ing one one way and the other track another way does absolutely nothing that couldn't have been done by turning up ONE bass track and putting the same EQ and/or filter on it.
There should be a sticky informing people that doubling a track does absolutely nothing but make it louder.
Hang in there, Champ! (And take your blood pressure pills!)
I wanted to chop it off.
There have been soooo many times I've wanted to take the keyboardist's left hand and crush it with a brick! They either steal my lines or play the line that their theory training tells them I should be playing (normally in blissful ignorance of the bass's role as a RHYTHM instrument).ding ding ding ding ding! we have a winner! the correct answer to the original question is "chop the piano players left hand off!!"
*applause*
Thanks for playing! Chuck... what do we have for the winner? Lookee here...a brand new set of... kitchen knives!
i don't know...i just went with it...forgive me.
