Very high quality compression and sustain as you would expect at this price, what I enjoy most is that it really brings any ghosted notes in your lines to life. Don't make the schoolboy error that I made however and leave it plugged in between sound check and dinner as it eats 9v batteries very quickly! Get an adapter if you are going to buy this fantastic piece of kit."},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"C***K"},"datePublished":"4 January 2025","name":"Excellent","reviewBody":"I’ve used this for many years now!

One of the best pedal ever.Doesn't change my bass tone at all. Just the dynamic of it.It is the only effect on my pedal-board ever on.The compression dynamic display is great too.Only issue: the \"on\" led is too bright, but this can be easily managed :-)"},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"4.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"H***K"},"datePublished":"30 October 2019","name":"Useful playing live","reviewBody":"This works well at making volume more consistent, or can be turned right up to add distortion. I used it at the end of the signal chain mostly to level out occasionally excessive volume from the envelope filter or from slap/pop and to make volumes of normal playing more consistent.However, I mostly just used it at home for practice and didn't particularly like not hearing where I had played something too softly/hard - not ideal for practicing and building a good technique. And I found that it took the life out of slap/pop, and killed the sub bass when I EQ ahead of it for a dubby tone, and it raised unwanted fret noise, and worst of all for practicing - it made me feel a bit disconnected from the sound.....all things that I'm sure many other players could deal with, or of course the compressor settings can be dialed down but by doing that I found it probably wasn't the best way to spend £171 and take up pedal board space.I returned it as it's not needed for the majority of what I do - practicing at home and recording to Laptop (via Logic that has a compressor), but it is well built and does what it is supposed to do well. I can see that it would be especially useful for playing live so I might well end up buying this again in a couple of years if I start doing that.I saved about £70 by replacing this with a Boss RC3 looper. Not something most 'must have' bass pedal lists include (whereas most would include a compressor) but I would recommend this more for someone more focused on practice rather than playing live."},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"6***R"},"datePublished":"23 January 2018","name":"Great Bit Of Kit","reviewBody":"Great bit of kit. I already own a Boss LMB-3 which is quite good but after reading the good reviews on this compressor I have wanted one for some months now so was really looking forward to trying it out with my rig. I ordered it on Friday and it arrived Saturday. Brilliant service, well packaged and MXR box was in perfect condition as was the pedal within. Fitted it to my pedal board and hooked it up to my gigging rig effects loop and quickly dialed it in for a real treat. It tightened the tone and lifted the sound very nicely. Reduced the more woolly unrefined sounds to leave a more even rounded tone. Plenty of adjustment for other sound tastes too. A very versatile pedal. Really happy with my purchase."},{"@type":"Review","reviewRating":{"@type":"Rating","ratingValue":"5.0"},"author":{"@type":"Person","name":"D*** "},"datePublished":"26 May 2022","name":"Subtle but powerful","reviewBody":"Barely noticeable until you turn it off, at least thats the setting I like but it can also heavily compress.

I'm a newbie bassist, thank you :)","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"Personally, I cut the signal from my active basses to match my passives. The most important part of my board is the Electroharmonix Hum de-bugger. I work round that. If I chopped off the top instead, it wouldn't be an issue. I also use the new Electroharmonix bass preacher. The soul preacher is probably OK for your Fender.\nAs I play mainly 35\" 5 string with dropshots, it is always a battle to control overloads from the B and E. I split my signal and lightly compress this bottom end.\nI keep it clean until I need otherwise. It works for how I use it.\nI also Tick Tack with a Baritone through the same rig. The full Duane Eddy. He used the baritone version of the Danelectro (hardboard) Longhorn bass (the lipstick pickups are unique for the twang) and the flash Gretch on stage. Regrettably, sustain and compression pedals, although similar in principle don't quite work out like that.\nLook to Northwood Hills for your specialist / boutique pedals and power supplies. Next to the Met line station.\nEnjoy trouser flapping goodness from your rig. You are at war. Your lead guitar needs to fear your power.\nRemember, the bass player needs to be a bands proper musician. A reader, fully understanding chords and harmony as well as rhythms.\nCan you sight read Hymn book bass lines and identify all the chords and their inversions.\nThe lead wails, the front man struts and drummers are only partly human. Find a good keyboard player and pair up.\nFinger pads with the left hand and learn how to damp your strings with your right hand as you play. This is difficult.\nAs with harpists, your tone will become cleaner and brighter as the RH fingers harden up.\nDon't be afraid to use round or compressed wound strings for brighter slap bottoms with grounds or even flats for the top. Popping is very toppy.\nTaper Bs and Es are easier to intonate. Have you a note / frequency chart? You will need it. Dropped Bs are in the realms of lowest organ notes.\nHope this helps. Try not to go too deaf.\n\n\n\nLook to Barefaced Bass for your cabs. The alternative needs tame bodybuilders."}}]}]}
