- Don't add long reverb to bass sounds unless you
have an artistic reason to do so,for example in bass solos,as
this tends to blur the low end of the mix. If you need to add
space to a kick drum, try a short ambience program or a gated
reverb as an alternative. If you are in a position where you need
to apply reverb to an entire drum mix, roll off the low end of
the reverb for a cleaner sound.
- Have you ever used a stereo chorus on a bass
sound and ended up with a muddy bottom end swimming all over the
place? To solve that problem you need to use chorus effect specially
designed to be used with bass,than you can avoid that problem
by separating the bass and treble frequencies, where you set the
cutoff frequency. The effect is only applied to the treble portion,
which is then mixed back with the bass for output.Excelent VST
