OK, so, let me clear something up about Dimmu Borgir. Vortex uses a 5 string bass, and
uses it for certain chords that the guitarists may do. For example, say if the guitars
going
 
[-----]
[-----]
[-----]
[4-444]
[2-222]
[2-222]
 
Then the bass would be going
 
[-----]
[-----]
[-----]
[-----]
[0-000]
 
He often uses standard tuning, but I can hear that he goes lower than B, so he must be
drop D. Feel free to PM me with any questions or comments.

it DOES go to a low Bb... possibly the B is dropped to an A?

I'm making a couple corrections myself here. During the part that goes [--------------------] [--3-----------------] [-3-3--3----2--2--2h3] [1----1--1-1-11-11---] [--------------------] The 1's on the E string should be 3's. (I forgot it's in drop D.) Also, the part that goes [-------------------------------------------------------------] [-------------------------------------------------------------] [5555555555555555-9999999999999999999999-111111111111111111111] [-------------------------------------------------------------] [-------------------------------------------------------------] the 9's should be 10's, and the 11's should be 12's. I was in a bit of a rush at the time. Sorry folks. ;)
