You have some of the best bass lesson vids on RU-vid. Being self taught can be really hard, so I’m so grateful.

@@OnlineBassCourses I would really love to get deeper into scales. Can you maybe do video about them? How they work? Why do they work? What is the theory behind them?

I have been following you for a little more than a year now. That is when I started my journey learning the electric bass. I am a “sub” and a patron of your lessons. I have learned quite a bit and continue to, but I really do appreciate your approach. You come across as calm and friendly in these vids, and it makes it so nice to watch whilst learning. I know I have pointed out the obvious and that these things have been mentioned before but I cannot thank you enough. Regards, Adam

I can't wait for the loop pedal lesson. I'm looking at Ditto pedals now and was wondering what one to get. They have a Ditto + or a Ditto 4x?

@OnlineBassCourses 11 месяцев назад

Coming on Saturday! In that lesson I mention that I don’t have a clue about the different pedals (sorry…). Check their website. I’d imagine it’s more control over the loops and more recording time etc. basically just better and more features. Mine is very simple but ok for now.

Hey Dan, hope you're having a great weekend. Just started the video - is that a bit of reverb you're using? If so, how are you generating it? Sounds great.

@OnlineBassCourses 19 дней назад

Thanks! I use Valhalla Room, Soundtoys EchoBoy, or Waves CLA Guitar. All plugins.

@Matthew-ym2bb 11 месяцев назад

Complete novice in the effects dept. but I love what you are using. Reminiscent of Mark Egan in the early Metheny Group days. Are you using the CLA Waves bass or guitar plug in? These look dirt cheap. Is this only used for recording? Can I simply plug my bass into this?

@OnlineBassCourses 11 месяцев назад

Thanks very much and very good spot! Waves CLA guitar plugin used in Logic Pro X on one channel (blended with a second clean channel).

@JoseRivera-be3bo 11 месяцев назад

I'm considering joining your bass courses mr. Dan. I have a question to ask: What do you think about bass players using letter stickers on the fret board?

@OnlineBassCourses 11 месяцев назад

Thanks, Jose. I’m not a fan personally as it becomes too much of a crutch. Search ‘notes’ on my channel. I have a few lessons that will show you how to learn the fretboard the proper way. Once you see the patterns, it’s actually very logical and easy.

@h00dles33 11 месяцев назад

Do you have a lesson on how you pluck/strum your chords? I notice you using three fingers.

@@luismorales9568 Nothing that I've seen, heard or played. There's something about old basses. I must say, the pickups are new though. Plus there are effects on this video so you can get a similar sound with a PJ bass with old-ish stainless steel strings like mine (Elites Players 45-105).

Just dropping an appreciation comment here. I'm learning TONS from your youtube channel, thank you SO much, for such informative, inspiring, and CLEARLY explained content. All presented in a relaxing manner that makes it all so enjoyable.

@lorenzotosiart 9 месяцев назад

If I can add a suggestion for a lesson, I find it makes a world of difference when one successfully ends a phrase on a note that really feels right. Something about cadences maybe? Is that a concept that applies to phrasing on bass and/or on bass-line building? The idea of targeting a good note that propels to the next phrase' beginning note? Hopefully I gave a useful suggestion here. Thank you again for all the lessons!

@OnlineBassCourses 9 месяцев назад

Thank you so much. I really appreciate your words!

@OnlineBassCourses 9 месяцев назад

Good idea. Landing on chord tones often results in a pleasing sound. No surprise as your melody note fits directly with the chord. That’s a good rule of thumb - target chord tones.
