Last week, Ben took us on a journey of bass tone discovery. We looked at many of the components that go into a final bass tone and talked about the parameters we can play with to affect our tone. 

This week we dive deep into the various recording techniques and how they affect our tone. We also talk about a methodical approach for testing a mult-speaker and multi-mic setup to ensure you're capturing the best tone possible. 

In this episode you will learn:

• Ben's tone pyramid in detail
• The importance of capturing a DI and why it can have a totally different purpose than capturing a DI for guitars
• When having new strings is critical and when it may be optional
• Why it's important to test the sound of all of the speakers in your cabinet and how to do methodically
• What a good DI sounds like
• How to listen to tones off of different speakers and assess them
• Which mics work well on bass cabinets and why mic choice may be less important than you think
• How to blend different captured sounds to create a bass tone with the best of all worlds
• And more!
