In this video, Joseph Conyers and Geoff Chalmers discuss the 'scooping' technique on the double bass which Joseph often uses in his online courses on orchestral excerpts, Orchestra Chops Vol. 1 and Vol. 2.

Joseph demonstrates how a scooping technique on the string will create a better sound, and how you can achieve this. This includes how to use the natural weight of your body and use the right amount of pressure to get a rich, full sound from your bass.
