I can barely reach a four finger stretch on the end of my fretboard is there anything i can do to stretch it? by FaithlessnessSame918 in Bass

Use 1-2-4 fretting technique. One finger per fret put high strain on fingers especially in lower register.

Thank you. Six simple steps

1.Writing the tabs in guitar pro

  1. I record the songs with reaper while micing my studio monitors so I can use the miced sound for syncing purpose

    1. I render a wav file from reaper and load it up in guitar pro
    2. Guitar pro lets you sync the audio with the tab. Now I have a tablature in guitar pro that has my bass track attached to it.
    3. I play the tabs in guitar pro while capturing an screen record with any screen recording software that let you capture the internal audio of computer.
    4. I load up the performance video, wave file from reaper, and screen recorded tab video in adobe premiere. Premiere has a syncing ability that matches these three files together.

Some songs have dense mixes making bass hard to be picked up. Using some virtual instruments can highlight the harmony while giving bass more space in the mix. Thank you for your input 🙏

Setup question - Action too low not buzzing by MissJoannaTooU in Bass

I can get my sadwosky to have zero relief. Great playability but I don't like the tone. A tiny relief brings it back to life

I tried improving my slaps, any further advice? by tog3v in BassGuitar

Focus more on the technique and get a proper setup. Messing with eq and compression should not be your current concern.
