DI Is The Bass Shortcut
A good DI turns bass into an easy recording source and gives live engineers a stable signal.

A compressor can even out fingerstyle dynamics, but it should not flatten the player’s feel.
Interfaces Need Headroom
Bass can produce strong low-frequency peaks, so input gain and monitoring matter.
