I have: Behringer MX9000 (pre Mackie dispute), Alesis Masterlink, Aphex aural exciter, Alesis ADAT unit. We run the bass directly from the Bass effects box into the aural exciter and then to the desk and into the adat unit. The sound of the bass thru the phones Sony mdr7506's is great and on ADAT playback it is great,but I cannot seem to get what I hear on to disk! What am I missing??? I'll admit I am a novice (I play drums full time) and I have looked into several books, but cannot get answers. The sound we are looking for is similar to that used by Chris Squire from YES. A full balance High end,mid, and low. But I can only seem to get the bottom end to translate!! HELP!
 
This may sound kind of simple, but have you tried playing with smaller strings? I've noticed that I, too, have had no problelm getting the low end to translate after mixing, but new, smaller strings helped a lot. I could still get the low end I needed, but now had presence and definition as well.
