Well I really didn't know where to put this post, in fact I wasn't sure I wanted to post this at all. I don't want to come off as sounding like a baby, but I have nowhere else to turn, and this is eating me up inside. Yesterday we had a practise scheduled, and I was ll pumped up for it. THings started off really good, but then they started in on my tone, and how 'bassy it was''. Some of you may recall that I had posted some tone clips, and how I already compromised my tone by cranking the mids. Well last night the bass player starts in on me, and by the time we were through, I had NO FUCKING BASS dialed in...I sounded like a grilled cheese sandwhich. In fact I couldn't hear myself for the rest of the evening, and things just went downhill from there. The keyboard player kept on soloing, and he was fucking loud, I mean really loud. Now here's the kicker, the bass player plays through a guitar amp. In fact he uses a Zoom effects unit for guitars. That coupled with the fact that these guys just don't understand the low B string is really fucking things up...or is it just me. I really need some input.
Also, not to whine, but I am the one who writes all the material, records ideas and gets things going at the practise. I record our sessions, post the links and even started a website. So last night, when I was obviously feeling down, there session went to shits, no guidance and it sounded like CRAP!
