RECORDING THE BASS GUITAR BY OVERDUBBING
Overdubbing is the playing back previously recorded
tracks while recording a new instrument on a different
track. With this technique, it’s possible for one musician
to play many different instrumental parts on a single
recording. If you’re multitalented, multitrack overdub-
bing can clone you into your own group.
Now, we’re going to record a bass guitar on track 2 to
synch with, or match, with the drum part already record-
ed on track 1. There are two ways to record the bass:
place a microphone in front of the bass amp, or run a
direct line from the bass into the recorder.
If you’re after a really clear recording, direct line record-
ing is the way to go. If you’re using an effect of some
sort, you’ll want to run a noise gate thru the final stage
of the effect. This is true with all electrified musical
instruments.
Another idea is to use the Yamaha GC2020 comp/limiter.
In addition to the compresser and limiter functions, the
noise gate function can prove to be very convenient.
