I have always recorded bass guitar direct. I don't recall ever micing a cabinet. I've got the 5017 mic pre which has the ability to blend a DI signal with a mic signal. So I thought I'd give this a try.
Any suggestions on the type of microphone for the bass cabinet? When I have spare time I quite enjoy experimenting but I kinda wanted to cut to the chase in order to get a part down.
I'll be using a Fender P cabled into a 4x10 Bassman Reissue. I've got some decent LDC's to choose from as well as 57 and 421 dynamics.
Just like when I record guitars I will be putting blankets over the microphone and the front of the cab for isolation.
Suggestions welcome.
