Bass Compressor
Some players consider compression to just be a studio thing—unless you’re using a more “effect” style pedal but compression can also serve you well on stage. It helps even out your signal, ensuring that nothing gets too loud or too soft by limiting the dynamic range.
The MXR® bass Compressor are perfect for this application. Their Attack, Release, Ratio, Input, and Output controls make it easy to dial in the desired threshold, from subtle peak limiting to hard squashed compression. Use the ten gain-reduction status LEDs to check reaction speed in real time. Equipped with CHT™Constant Headroom Technology, these compressors also provide a ton of headroom for clear and transparent performance.
This totally transparent compressor allows your full dynamic range to shine through until your signal reaches the compression threshold, which is indicated by the ten, highly visible gain-reduction status LEDs. It’s all packed into a durable, lightweight aluminum-housing pedal that’s the size of a Phase 90.
The Bass Compressor provides recording-quality compression with Constant Headroom Technology™ and true bypass switching for keeping your low end tight and clean.
It helps even out your signal, ensuring that nothing gets too loud or too soft by limiting the dynamic range.
