It's why I want to start playing it at 27 years old

As a metalhead I'm very ashamed that I can't make the difference between the guitar and the bass, please don't tease me

listen to Ride the Lightning then Justice for All.

Just, you know, don't throw me under the bus for it.

Could've been worse, he could've lived and become like Dave Mustaine.

There are a few websites that can separate stems. I use lalal.ai to get the bass line and then convert it to tabs using another service.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

You can convert to tabs from an isolated baseline? Is it someone just transcribing it? Or like a program?

Edit: pocket sand

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago* (last edited 10 months ago) (1 children)

Yes, you can use lalal.ai to separate the bassline, then feed that to another service like Guitar2Tabs on klang.io. Also, my bad, was busy and couldn't remember the name of the tab converter.

No worries at all. This is all so foreign to me. Gives me some cool stuff to research though. Thanks for the info, appreciate it.

Sh-sh-sha.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 10 months ago

No shame in that. You could start accustoming your ears by searching YT for "bass and drums isolated" and listen to those versions and then the originals and see if you separate the bass better.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

Hmm, is there supposed to be much of a difference? I recon, if it was physically possible to make a trumpet sound like a tuba, that would be very popular. And as I understand, that is possible with e-guitar and e-bass, because electronics...

Les Claypool would like a word.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

And he can have one once he stops playing all the notes.

Bassists are based

Man, I just think about the opening for "Would?" by Alice in Chains. People who underappreciate the bass haven't heard that song.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 10 months ago

Other bass-first songs include "You've Seen The Butcher" and "Radiant City" by the Deftones.

The bassline is front and center in nutshell

I mean I don't feel underappreciated. I've never once had a problem finding a group to play with.
