This was a nice demo Tommy, but your audio was quite distorted. If you could re-record this and pull the mic or computer inout down a bit, it should come through without the high-end buzz. Otherwise, very clean technique and dynamically distinctive. Super!
@satchelpooch01 wow, this is the first time I've logged back in to review the clip, great sound level improvement. Sounds great Tommy! I'd keep the weird dude with the purple garb out, of your next clip. Scary.
that bass used to belong to Freddy "boom boom" Flewellen I hooked Tommy up with that bass in the mid 1990's that bass is killin I was going to buy it back then I had two T basses so I hooked Tommy up my name is Calvin Boyd the preamp was boosted by Bob Lee that is an original Michale Tobias Bass
Great posting. Tommy Brown? Never heared of him before seeing him on the Tube. Now I'm after getting his DVD. And the other fella? Man, that was the funniest thing I've seen on You Tube for ever.
oh my god dude if you had an actual Michael Tobias Design dude that will sound amazing that bass sounds nasty though sounds horrible sounds staticy as hell
If you sing or play an instrument you have to go to Top-musician com, upload a video of you singing or playing your instrument and you can win $1000 or more for having the most views.
@iplaybass77 I think it is the result of a very poor video-recording device. You can hear how much the auto-gain is working from how long it takes before the volume goes up, when he stops playing and starts talking. Auto-gain rarely does any good to the sound quality.
Whoever filmed this should've tweaked the EQ and brought the high end way down. But this man is a fucking BEAST of a bassist.
