assuming you record a bass thru a DI box directly in
Ardour,
what effect, simulator... do you use to have it sounding like
a tube amplified bass recorded with a good mic (ie D12) ??
You could try the CAPS plugins:

You could try these in jack-rack
Yeah, the tube pre-amp of caps is really good for bass.
Specifically Compress and AmpV or AmpVTS. I
don't think the cabinet
simulators sound good with bass, though.
The cabinet-simulators on the other hand truly are guitar cabinets and thus
rather bad for bass...
Thanks to Paul, Rosea and Arnold for the answers,
Just to be sure, are you talking about the LADSPA plugin called "C*
preampIV" in Ardour ??
