Looking for a modern metal bass tone recipe, but haven’t succeed yet?
I’ve enjoyed mixing this powerful death-core song by David Valles:
And here’s his original mix (link to the raw tracks included). BTW, if you’d like to find some raw tracks or stems to practice mixing/reamping/mastering, make sure to check my multitracks post.
And made a short video overview of this bass tone for you:
Well, the general concept is pretty well-known among the engineers who deals with heavy music: two separate tracks. One for the lower bass frequencies and another for highs.
But there is something specific regarding their particular processing. Check the video overview for the details.
Hope this will help you to achieve a desired metal bass tone!
