Right now it's SSL's 4K E. I almost wish the sound was a little LESS transparent but when you turn on the pre-amp and push the mic a little, it gives the most satisfying warm distortion, which I happen to think sounds absolutely beautiful on electric bass. I also just find the EQ section to be ... satisfying, if that makes sense.

Hi all! My musical partner Michelle Hotaling and I have released a new Christmas song this year -- a Christmas-themed re-imagining of "In My Life" by the Beatles. Michelle is singing and playing electric piano, and I'm playing everything else as well as producing, mixing, & mastering. It's the first song we've released that I've mastered myself thanks to the Mastering Intensive so I'm pretty excited about that. The below link has links for Spotify, Apple Music, Tidal etc. but I know it's in a few other places like Pandora. https://tidal.com/album/480172666/u

I recently used Logic Pro's "Session musicians" (drums and bass) as placeholders when beginning a new project this fall -- and I actually liked so much of the bass part that was generated that I learned to play it on my actual bass when recording the real track. So I guess I "sorta" used an AI-generated part? 🤔

I tend to use Logic Pro for recording and mastering, and Pro Tools for mixing ... but that said, I think I'm going to use Logic Pro for everything on my next project. Just have to get a mixing template set up!

Happy holidays!
