Last Saturday 02 July 2005 15:19, Christoph Eckert was like:
I just ordereed an electric bass (passive). I'd
like to
directly plug it in into my soundcard and to use Linux as an
amplifier (and record it to ardour, of course).
As I'm not yet familiar to basses and guitars yet, I wonder
what I should use for the bass. There's creox, but it's a bit
dated.
OTOH, I thought jack-rack could be my friend. If so, which
LADSPAS can I use in conjunction with a bass? I guess (but I
do not know) that a compressor can do a great job. There are
several LADSPAS for it, so if anyone has a working setup I'd
be glad for some hints.
Frankly, if you're recording to ardour, then DI-ing it may be fine. Some kind
of pre-amp will help. The SC series of compressors can be useful, best bass
sounds are usually the least mucked around with in my experience.
cheers,
