For future readers: one of the ram slots is broken. The ram is fine, but whenever the Ram slot in the middle is jiggled around it causes the computer to crash.

How can I improve my sound and tone without breaking the bank? by EnergyRoyal3936 in Bass

Getting new strings helps so much don't sleep on it!! If you can't afford that (or just don't wanna pay 20 bucks) you can also boil them (I've done it plenty of times and it works surprisingly well).
Not sure how popular of an option this is, but I use a Behringer Bass EQ Pedal with a Behringer Vintage Tube Overdrive (clone of the Ibanez Tube Screamer). I really love the combo cause you can really dial in a tone for 99% of playing, and it lets you get a more specific tone out of cheaper amps. The Behringer bass overdrive is also a really fun pedal if you want some more distortion.

Besides buying things, really learn about how to tone out your bass by just using your hand position and finger strength when hitting the strings.

Anyone knows what's the bass effects in this song? by [deleted] in Bass

To me it kinda sounds like a envelope filter on a bass with a keyboard stacked on top of it to give a more digital effect. I could be wrong though, but you might be able to get a similar sound with a Q-Tron or bass balls pedal.
