Bass strings comparison - RotoSound Vs. DR скачать видео бесплатно

PhuckHue2

nothing comes close to Rotosound. I've been playing for 35 years

IMO every stainless bass string is "in terms" of Rotosound. When people talk about feel, they're compared to Rotosound. When people talk about brightness, they're talking about how bright they are compared to Rotosound.In this video, Rotosound has a clearer tone by a mile. It would have been cool to hear the comparison with Hi-Beams instead.

I use the rotosound strings brighter just a touch more they kick the shit outta the stock strings my bass came with. But in this demo either string would be a good choice really close in tone. And props to the bass player sounds bloody awesome man thanks for your video.

The Drs are better but not by much. Lo Riders sound the best out of all of the drs.Rotos sound good and I always liked them but they chew your frets up bad ! DRs even though they are stainless don't eat frets because they use micro wrap wire. I love all DRs but lo riders are my favorite!!

OMG that bass sound is so sweet. I'm buying a P bass next thing tommorow.

Nice demo. They are very close in tone. The Roto's seem just a tad brighter. But I think either string would work well.

Personally, having tried Ernie balls, D'addario's, and both the Marcus Millers and the lo riders from DR, but not Rotosounds (local shops don't carry them), out of every thing I've tried, DR's 'feel' the best to my fingers, but their sound is best early in their life. The way strings feel is rather important to me, so the DR's, as a brand, win out. The sound of the lo riders had a nice round low end, and a snappy pop at the top which begs to be slapped. The Millers where a little more poppy, but felt a bit too loose, and the sound is definitely conducive to a particular style, and worked great within the funky jazz realm, but not much else. The worst sounding are the D'addario's, they had almost no fundamental note, and they where extremely tinny sounding in the top end and buzzy. They sound cheap (but do like their Chrome flatwounds, but don't really have anything to compare them to). Ernie Ball's where pretty good, but also somewhat lacked on the fundamental note, but got better after about a week of playing. Probably sounded better for longer than the lo riders.

Great playing man...rotosound are more old school and have more mids, while the DR's are smoother and more scooped...I like both for different reasons.

Thanks. Very nicely recorded.I've used Rotosound off and on my whole life, although I've tried DRs several times. I think we non-endorsed players who pay good money for strings have to keep in mind that when an artist endorses a string, he is probably getting them for free. This means he can change his strings as often as he feels like it. And one important aspect of choosing a string is not just how they sound right out of the package, but how do they sound after several weeks, or even months.Many of our favorite players have fantastic tones. They also have techs and crates of strings and can have their favorite bass set up with a new set every night if they choose. I think almost any strings sounds fantastic out of the box. They are bright, true, in tune, even, clear, etc. But as strings die, they change and from the minute you put them on and stretch them out, they are dying. So a true test is not how they sound when they are new, but how do they sound when they are really broken in, beat up, sweated on, and 3/4 of their way through their lifespan? My personal view is that Rotosound gives the best overall "tone", and by tone I mean just a basic great sounding note that works really well with a band live and on recordings in a variety of styles. In addition, the top end click and noise is very appealing. String noise is what a bass player has instead of distortion, so it's an important factor not just something to be avoided. In this demo, when a pick was used, the Rotos won out in my opinion. The top end of the DRs to my ears was an undesirable noise. That said, I love DRs. They are bright, big sounding, have a nice grind, and just demand to be slapped. They have a great popping sound, but every time I've tried them, they didn't last very long, and as they aged, they had undesirable overtones, and the top end sounded a little "cheap" for lack of a better term. Sure if are endorsed by them, or can afford to change them every week, they might be the better choice depending on your style. And I might actually try DRs again on a particular bass I'm shopping strings for, I'm not against them. Just my .02.

Great demo. Me personally, I'm a DR guy, I like the feel of their strings better than the others. Their flat wounds on my Precision actually sound and feel very nice as well

Kevin Bosquez

Rotosounds all the way. I've played them for years and they never let me down!!! 

Tony James

I like them both...I like the Roto's sound a little better ...but the DR's seem to last longer and feel a little better to the fingers.

Nice demo.. what are you playing at the beginning, those arpeggio sounding licks? Any tabs? Anyway, I got Roto 66 as well on my Jazz bass.. thinking of replacing it with flatwounds out of curiosity on how flatwounds would sound on Jazz bass.
