bass frequences

I am not a bass player,but i try.I have done this song and the bass aways sounds out of tune,even though it is tuned. I have tryed changing the strings thinking they might be flat,but this did not help.I did resreach and read that it might be the frequences are getting mixed from the bass with others instruments ,making the bass sound out of tune.Is this possiable? I also want to know whats the best plugin to find out what frequences my instrument is on.thanks all

might be the drums not tuned correctly, or not in tune with the bass

i am using jamstix drums.Aren,t they in tune all ready.I didn,t know i had to tune drums.

For checking out what frequencies are going on, grab Voxengo SPAN. It's useful for a whole ton of things.

can you post the song? that might help too :D

Do you have instruments other than bass and drums? Could be the other instruments are in tune with each other, but out of tune to whatever you're tuning the bass to.

Does it still sound out of tune when soloed? I have sometimes found that a kick drum, if not tuned right, can make a bass sound out of tune.

intonation could be out on the bass, or even the guitars. might not be a eq problem.

Thank you for all the responses,It was the frequnices were set wrong.I had left an EQ on the track and it was on and set.This had cause the out of tune sound. I never thought that this could cause this kind of problem.I think thats why i didn,t think to shut off the EQ.Oh well you learn something new everday.

glad you got it figured out :_)
