City on a Hill - Mon Rovîa | Drum Cover
A GREAT SONG by one of my new favorite artists. Its one thing to learn an existing drum part for a cover, but covering a song with little to no percussion is such a fun creative exercise!

I got a lot of requests for this! So here's how I make an all purpose gospel to country to rock bass patch using the Line 6 Helix LT and my Music-man Stingray 5 HH. Everything was recorded from the Helix directly into my UAD Apollo 8 with no additional post-processing.

Finally got the new studio up and running, so I decided to take a break from unpacking boxes and demo one of my favorite pieces of gear. All sounds are direct from the Helix stereo line out.

      @stephenyokley 6 місяців тому

      Thanks! The drum sounds are synths triggered by an audio envelope in the ZOIA, the snare and hats are filtered white noise mixed with the bass audio, and the kick is an enveloped sine wave mixed with the bass audio

    I'm speculating that part of the difference I'm hearing is the high mass bridge on the Mayones. I have two fenders- one with a high mass bridge, and they are similar in the difference in sound. I could be wrong of course, but it's made me pay more attention to the type of bridge used on basses.

    Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences on these two excellent basses, however though it all comes down to preference, I love fender jazz bass, I recently bought a Bass Mods 534 jazz bass, with great features, in my opinion Bass Mods gives the consumer boutique quality and craftsmanship without the price tag.

    My goodness I’m in shock because this is genuinely one of the best performances I’ve seen in all they way too many bass videos I’ve ever watched. Do you think the helix poly sustain works for that infinite sustain thing you’ve got going on with I think the microcosm?

    • @stephenyokley
      @stephenyokley 2 роки тому

      Thank you! I’m still pretty new to this setup and it’s still evolving but definitely more like this will be coming. The poly sustain can totally make a pad like I’ve got going here, playing it along with octave effects and delay to get pretty close to the Microcosm would be dope!

    • @stephenyokley
      @stephenyokley 2 роки тому

      Oh man that’s tough, they’re both incredible pedals that are capable of making crazy noises. I find the hologram is more inspiring, like if I’m just going to play and twist knobs the hologram will do all sorts of cool and unexpected things. For the hologram I need to start with a sound in mind, like I’m going to create a modulated delay or additional noise generator, rather than just playing with it. Hope that helps!

    Depends on what bass being compared was made when. I have owned a 1960 jazz since the early 70s. They don’t make them like that anymore unfortunately. Great bass, like my 58 P. I also own many boutique basses that also can vary by luthier. That said, I also own 4 Mayones Jabbas. All of those are excellent quality instruments…imho, equal to or better than my 60J for many reasons. Mayones, and a few others like Zon, Sady, Fodera, Sandberg, etc, …you name it, are made with great attention to detail and craft. That’s why they cost so much. You can get a modern fender for less, but the total difference in build quality and sound is obvious. Regardless , the player and their hands is what makes the difference in any bass. It’s really personal preference for what you like to hear and play. 👍🏼
