Every now and then, I love playing around with tremolo, flange, envelope filter, fuzz, creating really cool synthy and ambient tones.

And then I get to a sound I think is so cool, but then it just feels like… if I could have a second clean bass playing underneath those tones, it would sound awesome.

Like realistically, 99% of the time, it just sounds better when all the fun synthy sound effects are coming from a keyboard or an electric guitar, and then you have a mostly clean bass playing underneath it all.

And then I enter a loop of going back to clean bass, then I add just a smidge of effects, then I think those effects sound cool and increase them… you get the point.

Does anyone else fall into this madness?
