After getting my new jazz bass I have been dying to get some good recordings done with it, but due to lack of equipment I have had nothing to use until tonight when I remembered I actually had a £200 mixer sat away gathering dust.

It took me a while to get my head around it and had to mither a friend of mine for some advice (check out his band The Portlands), but I am pretty happy with the quality that some of the recordings were coming out.

Click the play button on the small media player below to check out a sample of a recording I did. There has been no editing on the recording other than lowering the master track’s volume, a pretty impressive sound for just a raw recording in my opinion; let me know what you think though.
