Struggling with bass guitar? DO THIS! | EQ, Compression, Distortion

In this video you will learn not only how to EQ bass guitar, but also how to compress bass guitar and add parallel distortion to help the bass cut in your mix! I demonstrate this process using a Digico SD12 with the Waves GTR plugin, but this method can be done with nearly any console. In fact, I first learned this process using an X32!

Examples:
DAW: ProTools, Logic, Studio One, Ableton, etc.
Consoles: Behringer X32/M32, Allen & Heath SQ5, Yamaha CL5/Rivage, AVID S6L, SSL, Digico, etc.
