One of the better and cheaper bass choruses out in the market. It is a solid bass chorus pedal that doesn't add any distortion or overdrive to the bass tone but a subtle liquid modulation that beefs up the tone. I was unsure at first when presented this little pedal, but to my surprise it quickly became a staple of my personal tone. The lay out as follows...
- Low filter lets lowest frequencies through unaffected
- Controls for level, low filter, rate, and depth
- LEDs show status of controls
- One touch on/off switch
UTILIZATION
Only four knobs control the parameter and it is pretty self explanatory. The more you increase the low filter and depth the more that the pedal is going to be in your mix. Those two controls really determine how you are going to sound when using this device. I generally ran everything around noonish give or take to achieve my tone.
Pretty easy pedal to dial in. It all depends on how much or how less of a chorus effect you need or want in your signal. Not a true bypass pedal so it will be locking up your tone at all times. You can easily send it off to someone to get modified for true bypass if desired.
You can also run this pedal in stereo to create a sort of synth sound that sound very huge. The pedal in general is very warm and smooth sounding and when you are able to run it in stereo the range just opens completely up. I just kept it on at all times and used it in a gentle way as to not cramp my tone or dominate the signal.
SOUND QUALITY
The lush chorus modulation provides a depth that is very inspiring to play with. Keep the low filter down and listen how the pedal creates a old bass synth sound familiar to 70's style radio and television broadcasts. Another cool way to run this pedal is to have the depth to around 5:00, the rate around 12:00 , and the filter all the way up....you'll get a very usable high frequency bass chorus that sounds creamy but retains your original bass notes in tact.
The tone is remarkable in a distortion setting or for just added space. Couple this pedal with a little overdrive from your bass amp or another pedal and you have got one thick sounding tone. The sound is amazing! I find that the more this pedal is engaged the more I want to play the bass.
OVERALL OPINION
Great pedal for bass expansion. I have not tried it for guitar as I already own many chorus pedals for guitar. If chorus isn't your thing then I would try a Boss bass OD pedal to get little effect to your bass rig. A flat sounding bass rig is boring. The thing I like least about it was probably the true bypass thing. I wish Boss would step up the deal and make their items with this feature. You may not like it but at least give it a shot in a band mix too.
I would pay a little extra to have it standard true bypass then have somebody do it for me.
At new these go for right around $90 and which you can probably pick one up for half that on the used market. If it ever got lost or stolen I would probably pick up another unit. It gives a huge sound to a flat sounding bass rig. I would recommend any bass player at least try this pedal.
