How To Get This Bass Sound?

[ggalen]

Here's an MP3 snippet of Bill Cosby's theme (written with Quicy Jones), "Hicky Burr", that has the sort of smooth, round bass that I dream about getting. I just read that's Carol Kaye on the bass.You know that kind of bass that you "feel all around you" as well as hearing the downbeat thump?I'd love to have a bass sample that would sound like this...or is this primarily done with EQ and proper compression?How would I go about achieving this with a bass sample?Thanks for any thoughts or advice.http://www.GlennGalen.com/HickyBurr.mp3Here's the bass alone (from Carol Kaye.s website)http://www.carolkaye.com/www/library/so ... y_Burr.mp3
