well that really wasn't my bass in that mix. it was just a pitch shifted guitar with guitar rig 2 thrown on top of it lol...i have a custom schecter stiletto 5 string, but i need to replace a string so i didn't use it. the bass will be a lot more predominent once i get a new string and record it all over again

sounds a lot better!

really hard to explain this in English, but your kickdrum is very wide in frequency and covers most of the bassguitar territory. now if you were to separate those by making the kickdrum more thinner/"snappy" and the bassguitar (pitchshifted guitar) more "hmmpfh"-like, it would sound just as wide alltogether, but much better and distinct.

as for the riffage, nice positive, energetic sounding stuff

i appreciate the input man! the tone i normally use on my real bass is with my pod x3 live and is a lot better than my pitch shift guitar bass tone (which was guitar rig 2.0). The song you hear now is in drop C, but i'm deciding today if i want it in drop A or Ab...it sounds a lot beefier and fuller now...the song is actually faster too. i made the mistake of rendering a high-res sample (much too high for soundclick) and so soundclick compensated and it came out slower and detuned...it was a lot faster (check out the crappy low res version to get an idea of the speed it's really at). i'll mess around with the q settings on my EQ and see what i can do!
