Alfred in da place!

Alfred Kenny tuning his wonderful old Fender Bass.

Another great session last night!


WE did 6 runs and for some reason the first and last takes are the best! To the point that both are usable with no corrections needed. The first take sits in the song just right and the last take gives the song a nice mellow vibe that I really like. It will be a difficult decision between the two OR maybe I can blend them? Hmm...........

The tone of the bass was supreme!
Direct into the Ampeg B18 via the Heil PR-40 mic with no effects. I decided to use the Lucas Limiting Amplifier last night, it was a good decision. The bass was punchy and thick and seems to sit perfectly in the mix. No comping tonight, at least for this song.

Thanks again Alfred I know you had fun!.
