Mantaray's Sterling in Action (MP3)

[Mantaray]

Guys again thanks for the awesome comments. I will pay you back soon with better (sla)mp3s.

Very nice dude! Simply awe-inspiring

Edit: Oh yeah, btw, I got a few questions for you Mantaray.

1) Could you elaborate on your rig / recording method?
2) Is your Sterling a Maple board or Rosewood one?

Your answers:

1)I recorded my Sterling direct to ProTools. I didn't use any bass preamp, compressors etc. I wanted it to sound as natural as possible.
2)My Sterling is a Maple board. And yes, there's a GREAT deal of difference in sound between the two, provided you use roundwound strings. When slapping, maple really 'shines' !



As for the drum machine, as already stated, I import loops from Reason to ProTools. This beats any drum machine out there.
