The only person that I personally know who's gotten signed to a decent
record deal sent in a professional quality demo.

The demo that got the record company interested was done using a Tascam 488 
(8track cassette) deck, with the initial tracks recorded in thier practice 
space, mixed in a small project studio.  Even though professional gear was 
not used (all was either consumer or semi-pro), the quality of the final mix
was exceptionally good.  I've heard a lot of band demos from friends, and 
this was one of the two best quality ones I've ever heard, head and shoulders 
above all the others.

BTW, the band's name is Contagious and they were signed to Relativity 
Records.  Watch for their EP and a video coming out early next year.  
Their musical style is hard alternative.

I would suggest that while a DI line is the correct start, the signal should be
processed by a compressor, by a bass-specific preamp, possibly a tube unit,
and by a bass-specific EQ unit.  The generalized processing on the main board
may not be able to achieve the sound that a bass player desires.

I've learned to carry pens everywhere I go ... and plenty of Dunkin
Donut of McDonald's napkins in the car!

I don't have a portable recorder yet (Santa are you listening?) but
hope this will be resolved soon.  So anything I do during my 30 minute
commute I have to remember then write it/sing it as soon as I get to
work.  Actually, I've become quite good at remembering 	the melodys.
I recently sang a melody into my boom box that I've kept in my head
for 8-9 years.  I must have put it in a diagnostic loop in a
transporter buffer and forgotten about it.   :-)

Okay, thanks Larry. I'll look for the number. As for the "one hand in your
pocket", this is such good advice I'd like to emphasize it to the net. Tube
amps carry high DC potentials which can be VERY LETHAL! If you must work
on one while it's live, keeping one hand in your pocket will prevent you
from getting a shock passed through your heart (assuming you're not standing
in water...). The power supply caps can bite you pretty good even with the
power off, so beware. It's a good idea to short them (with some resistance in series) AFTER UNPLUGGING before getting near them. I saw an electronics teacher
get  a very nasty shock because he forgot this step.
Also, be aware of jewelry (i.e. take it off!). I saw a guy lean over a
power supply, with a hand in his pocket, and his dog tags fell right into
the power supply. Very unpleasant results... he survived with minor burns
but the device exploded.

Well, I guess I was asking too much.  So now I'm offering my Tascam
488 8-track Portastudio for $800 firm.  I purchased this unit just under
2 years ago (right when they hit the stores) for $1374 with tax, which
was a pretty good deal.  It is still a state-of-the-art 8-track
cassette studio (integrated mixer/recorder).  I still have the original
box and manual.  The unit is in perfect shape.

My experince is that it is very much EQ. I have been recording bass guitars
on small portastudios, and at that level it seems like the EQ is most 
important.

>All I've been able to really get is a low muddy sound.

Some hints: 
If you have more than one mike, use only one.
Don`t play with your fingers, use a picker ( I think thats the english word?)
Clean your strings. You can remove them and boil them. Cleaner strings have
more treble.

These are the things that I have discovered to make the sound less muddy, but
it probably isn`t everything.

I've learned to carry music paper around! I don't acually write full, proper
notation, but if I have melodic ideas, or certain riffs in my head, I'll 
jot them down with some lyrics. This helps me remember my ideas, and even
see them in a new light when I look at them again.

Yes. My partner gives me lyrics, and I set them to music. It's tough, though.
He writes poetry which doesn't lend itself at all to popular music, so he 
has to make an effort to write song lyrics. When I get them, although they are
refined, they're usually pretty unusual rythmically. So it's a challenge for
me to craft a song around them.  It does make for some interesting songs, 
though, and thats where the benefit lies. We specialize in what we do best.
     When I write alone, I usually think of a lyric phrase and a phrase of 
music to go with it. Then I finish the music, and I really have to work to
fill in the lyrics. I think my collaboration is more successful. I guess
I could ask my partner to fill in lyrics to my songs, but he wouldn't do it
because a) we have very different lyrical styles, and b) my songs are 
obviously personal to me. I think the way we do it works best for us.
