  • Watch Daniel Bergstrand mix the bass tone from Meshuggah 's "Future Breed Machine" off their 1995 album "Destroy Erase Improve."
    He uses the original multi-tracks including a DI and amped tone in Pro Tools going into a SSL console for EQ and compression.

      Yep, I'm pretty sure their current bassist's using a darkglass vintage microtubes preamp now. He used the darkglass tone for koloss and violent sleep of reason. It makes the bi-amped metal tone so much easier to achieve. We used to have to record a dirty amp and clean amp signal and blend the two together, now you can get that sound from one little box and not even need to do any editing in post

    The sound that he shows at first didn't really convince me but the mix you hear at 5:18 with the drums and bass only was absolutely perfect, and they should do another video talking about the drum sound.

    Wow, compared to the original master, this fills out the lows / low mids so much huger. I wonder if that was a mastering thing with the original or if it's due to this being mixed with our 2017 technology. Love you guys URM

    • @JUNKO____
      @JUNKO____ 6 років тому +33

      It was probably just a lack of knowledge of how to mix a guitar tuned that low. So it'd be "safe" to take a lot of low end out of the guitars because the bass will carry those frequencies and it'll avoid mud. But I agree, most Meshuggah mixes are way too thin.

    • @howler9171
      @howler9171 3 роки тому +7

      I'm not sure if it's just about the low tuning, because other bands at the time who also used 7-strings and/or de-tuned the shit out of their guitars like Morbid Angel, Cannibal Corpse, suffocation, cryptopsy, etc sounded heavy as shit. I think DEI and Chaosphere just have no bass whatsoever and that's their biggest issue. It's like they applied a high pass filter at the 100 hz mark. When I listen to those two albums in my car, my subwoofer barely moves any air at all unless I crank it. The kick drum is practically inaudible. When they mixed the album they were probably using a cheap speaker system and couldn't tell the difference.

    I think Peter Nordin was playing a Spector bass on this. After leaving the band (due to inner ear issue) he sold the bass, if I remember correctly. That had a lot to do with the tone as well.

      Looking at the video's out there ( ua-cam.com/video/k61FOVH_Aac/v-deo.html and ua-cam.com/video/MaR0bJYWwaA/v-deo.html ) he plays a a Spector NS-2a. Not sure if the bass is modded preamp and pickup-wise, but those Kramer-era NS-2a's can sound really gnarly with the high's boosted.
