Prog Basslines
View this Thread in Original format

I could use some help with the notation of Prog Basslines. Just some basic examples. I know how to sidechain but I'm confused on the typical notation. I just need some examples other than the 1/4 note bass side chained, which is a basic yet nice sounding one. I can't seem to get it right.

Thanks
Alex
Why do you want to imitate a side-chained prog bassline?

Go crazy man, you create it, let "them" label it :)

What is a "typical notation" on a bassline anyway?

good point, basslines that are quantized perfectly always sound dull, it's the part where you take the grid off and give it that human quality where it gets its rhythm

I just meant some examples of a prog type bass line.

K = Kick
B = Bass

K - - - K - - - K - - - K - - -
