Can-I-Loop Island
some furry drummer asked for some groovy basslines to improvise on, so I recorded this lil thing today, really like the way the upright sunds in the new studio...the wooden floor seems to give it some extra magic... and my new fanless (finally finally!) recording computer allows a lot more gain on the mics without having to worry what that hairdryer sound is coming from ;)
I'm getting there... hope someone out there has some fun with this now.

I just posted the furry guys approach as a first remix :)
If you like this type of simple patterned loops, I could try to post some more, seems that worked quite well without the usual "oh no upright sounds like @!$% :( - in here".
Looking forward to hear your take! +1

Loved the sound of your bass here so much Richard that I went and ordered the same strings for mine - I had Nylonwounds on mine which were like a kind of "plopp" in the lower register, and didn't bow at all. Now everything's fine, thanks to remembering your kind of strings (the red/violet gauge) :) Yours sounds wonderful, now I have to work on my recording setup again :)

upright strings are a tough buy, but my own experience with nylons wasn't so convincing either. Wishing you lots of fun with the new setup - I believe what really does the recording good in my case is the resonating wooden floor in the new studio, that seems to push the really low frequencies a little compared to the tiled concrete floor I used to record on.
