while making a bass guitar preset ala Doug Pinnick of King's X, i noticed something that i thought i should pass on; i was trying to capture his tone by using the opening few seconds of the song "moanjam" in which he plays all alone on one string for four bars. i then played the same thing while doing the tonematch. i tried this several times and i kept coming up with a slightly bright upper mids frequency preset. though it sounded pretty good, something about it sounded like it could be improved on.
today, i tried it again. this time i played the same part on a different string (bottom string instead of second string). the result is a warmer overall preset, which sounds better to me.
so if you are trying to get a better tonematch, the more strings you can use, the better. if you have to use just one string, try playing on a different string to change the tone.
