Why is it so hard for me to hear the bass in songs?

[Manders]

anyone have any methods on how i can hear the bass better?

[About A Girl]

turn it up! or try a bass boost, some stereos have it and if youre in a car (while your parents drive *ahem*) adjust the bass...you know!

[Octakon]

Turn up the bass and volume, and go into the room next to the room where the music is playing. :D

ive turned my guitar amp into a subwoofer so the bass comes out rokin in my house!

isnt that dangerous? guitar amps arent usually built to withstand bass, thats why they have bass amps. My friend blew out his guitar amp that way.

[Manders]

aight will do ;)

[Manders]

Learn to play songs on the bass, then you'll be able to hear where its coming from better. Just simple songs, nothing fancy.

My stereo has GREAT bass. Nice big subwoofers. My bedroom is fairly small right now, so I only have to turn it up to like 15 and it's already too loud. (Max Volume is 30). Cost me $299 Canadian. (Approx. $210 U.S)

Here's a picture of it :D :D

Holy sheehot! So it washes clothes, AND dries them? Nice! :stunned:

[Manders]

thanks reilly for that suggestion..i can try...im surrounded by music day in...and i see bases on mondays and wednesdays :)

[Ghaladan]

Yeah, it's sweet... My windows would surely shatter if I turned it up all the way (as well as shatter anyone's eardrums!) :lol:

[busybeeburns]

get a stereo like this and you have all the bass you need

bin not included :P

[Manders]

HEY WHERE IS HTTT MISTER!! :angry: haha i kid i kid

[itay]

just... listen :cool:

[Kettercat]

I wanna learn how to play the bass once I finish with a guitar :D oh and if you want a song that you can hear the bass very clearly try 'As You Are' by Travis... then you'll be able to hear the bass better in other songs too :P

[itay]

yeah and in "one i love" also

[Marvin]

Yeah having played some bass really helps.. (you can hear it pretty clearly on Clocks aswell)

[mburn]

and in my place, especiall yin da chorus

[Rain]

Ya, I'm a drummer and I can hear the bass in Clocks especially well, because its going constantly. Drumming to clocks is Very tiring unless u got double bass pedals. Anyways I think it helps the bass if u turn up the volume and put pillows and/or blankets on/infront of the speakers.

Holy ****!!!!!!!! :o :o :o :o Those things aren't stereos, those are evil monsters from Planet Q coming to take over the world with technology! :o :o LOL j/k....those are some SWEET MACHINES! :lol:

[el_scorcho]

:lol: Yeah...John's stereo is pretty insane :stunned:

[el_scorcho]

My stereo :)

[CityandColour]

i have the same problem, and i soon must learn to work with a bass player too being a drummer and all seeing how it is the rythym section. i can hardly ever hear bass in a song, but i can hear must bass drum parts in a song.

[Shiver911]

:lol: Yeah...John's stereo is pretty insane :stunned:

You can say that again... :lol:

[el_scorcho]

And the funny thing is he thinks he needs a more advanced one :rolleyes: :lol:

[girlstar]

Initially, it was hard for me to hear it as well. It's that sound right at the back sorta, In the chorus of 'I ran away' you can hear it really well, so maybe if you listen to that you will be able to recognise the bass in other songs better....uh...hmmm... *Gives up* Oooh, i failed to explain!! :/
