What about a compressor? To sound like a synth - especially an older synth - squash the dynamics with compression.
@M2Mil7er
@M2Mil7er 2 года назад
fuzz or distortion essentially compresses the signal by clipping the wave form. Same as you can drive a compressor to distort the signal.
@manobap
@manobap 2 года назад
@@M2Mil7er exactly what I was going to say. One of my favorites is the SFT from Catalinbread, because it’s a drive that cleans a little when the dinamics is low, but compresses a lot with a little more expressive volume. You can control just by your fingers emulating this old synths. Other tip is use a expression pedal in some models like moogerfooger filter to expand the controls. Behaves like a knob on a minimoog for instance.
@TayTayMakesBeats
@TayTayMakesBeats 2 года назад
That's interesting, I've got the opposite issue. I'm an analog synth boi and the main reason I want to get a bass is because of the dynamics. You can do a lot of crazy shit on synth but one of the hardest things to do is get anywhere close to the kind of physical interactivity of a bass or guitar.
@johncrafton8319
@johncrafton8319 2 года назад
@@TayTayMakesBeats Slides, bends, muting, use of different parts of the pick (or different parts of your fingers or thumb), being more passive or more aggressive - all of these things (and more) can create some great dynamics when playing bass. I also use a volume pedal for swells and for killing the attack, and I use an expression pedal for EQ sweeps.
@buckemptier
@buckemptier 2 года назад
@@TayTayMakesBeats That's exactly why you should play the bass. The idea isn't to literally sound like a synth, you just wanna add syth to your bass, not become a machine, that defeats the purpose, as you are saying. You've got it right, I don't personally think compression has anything to do with it

Octave is essential. So is the envelope filter. If you use a mod pedal keep the rate slow. Fuzz is always cool when used minimally.

Yea that’s what this brotha said too. Octave then fuzz. No right or wrong but without a doubt there’s a good amount of low-end loss if/when placing fuzz before an octave in the chain.

Cool tip for this I learned from the Snarky Puppy bassist You can play the fundamental of a bass note while cutting out most of the high overtones and getting a really smooth yet powerful synth-y tone by plucking every note 12 frets up. Combine this with a bit of distortion and you can get a similar sound without needing pedals So if I wanted to play the 3rd fret C note on my A string: my plucking finger has to be plucking the string on the 15th fret of the C string. It works on a similar principal to artificial harmonics

if you don't want to play so far up the neck (because the boss and other octave pedals add the synth sound but shift down), you can add an octave up at the start of that chain. at this point you might just want to buy a bass synth pedal, seeing as that's what the bass octave pedals are anyways.

It's design feature on older-style basses to protect the pickups. There is also a bridge guard which you typically see with these as well as a thumb rest sometimes. It does restrict where you pluck the string and people remove based on personal preference. That's Ian in the video btw.
