A lot of metal bassists use picks in favor of fingerpicking because it's easier to play at the extreme speeds with a pick and often will produce a crisper, more defined tone that stands out more in the wall of sound
Actually, the audio is strait via a mackie 2408 mixer. I used my camera's XLR inputs to capture the mixed live audio, I disabled my camera's onboard mic. I didn't mix the audio though, I just used the board's outputs. I would have mixed it MUCH differently!
ripped and plays awesome bass

The bass sounds relaly out of tune which kinda kills the song. Great song though, played really tight.

Tip for the cameraman, if you're going to use live audio...and not overdub from the cd. Cover the camera mic, it reduces distortion significantly.
