Bass guitar parts are usually written on the bass clef, just like the left hand part of a piano score, and should be in the same key as the guitar part (no transposing needed). Bass guitar, like guitar, sounds an octave lower than written. The 4th string on the bass (low E) is two octaves below the low E (6th string) on a guitar. -- Brett ------------------------------------------------------------ "In the rhythm of music a secret is hidden; If I were to divulge it, it would overturn the world." -- Jelaleddin Rumi _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo/linux-audio-user
