walking line

Spanish translation: bajo andante?

12:56 Dec 28, 2005
English to Spanish translations [PRO]
Music / music in general
English term or phrase: walking line
It's basically not holding
this string real hard
against the fret,
but just holding it down lighter,
so you get more of a punch.
So in some cases, you could use that
in a walking line,
where it would just sound punchier.

Explanation:
I'm a jazz fan, but not a music translator. Isn't the asker talking about a "walking bass line"?
