When working with guitar-heavy bands like Jimi Hendrix, The Rolling Stones and Led Zeppelin, it took Eddie Kramer’s legendary engineering skills to make sure the bass fit like a glove. Eddie Kramer Bass Channel captures his bass production expertise.
Eddie’s goal was crystal-clear: fat bass tones with presence that pop on radio mixes, without being overbearing—and with a choice of a more aggressive, or more dynamic, character. His bass plugin deliver those tones in your mixes.
Eddie Kramer on the Bass Channel: “The idea behind the Eddie Kramer Bass Channel was to create a fat bass sound with a lot of presence, that cuts through without being overbearing. In general, the low-mid frequencies are accentuated, so it really pops on radio mixes. That way, you can always hear it clearly, even at low volumes on small speakers. The Bass Channel comes in two flavors: Bass1, which is less compressed, for a more dynamic sound that has room to breathe, and Bass2, a more aggressive sound with increased compression.”
