What type of bass effects do you have/want? how well do they sound with your bass? or do you like effects at all?

I personally have no effects yet, but I really want a bass distortion and bass wah, although I might need a better amp to have it sound clear...

What about you?

I love a Multi-Chorus when I'm playing My Friend of Misery.

I have quite a few effects for my bass and guitar, but my two favorites are my Digitech BP200 Multi-effects processor and my BOSS Bass Overdrive ODB-3. They sound pretty wicked if executed correctly.. and personally I see no shame in using effects on a bass. Everyone has their own personal preference, so why be so conservative on something that is so expressional and artistic as music. cool

Myself, I just wanna wah. That's it. But none of the local shops carry one, so I might have to drive 50 miles to find a bass wah.

A compression pedal for bass is always necissary

Guitarists have distortion, we have our compression

what is a compression effect?
PostPosted: Wed Nov 16, 2005 7:26 pm


compression is when you raise the low sounds of the bass, and lower the sounds of the high notes of the bass, so everything you hit will be of equal balance, like the sounds are compressed into one uniform sound

wouldnt that make it sound out of tune?, hmm I'm sorry I'm not completly understanding this.

sorry... after reading that, yeah it would be out of tune, I shouldve said tones instead of notes, like the low undertones and overtones would be the same, and when you play powerchords, no note will stand out more than the other

Just try it and see the difference, youll know what I mean, there will be more bass presence when you play
