Multi-band compression pedals

Sign in to disble this ad
I want a multi-band compression pedal (not rack) and I'm just wondering what my options are. I know of the EBS Multicomp and the Trace Elliot SMX. Does anyone know of any other options?

I have the Ashdown Dual Band Compressor, and it does what it's supposed to do. I think they can be had at MF now for about $60.

There aren't many but nothing beats that Trace pedal. I just got one to use with my Markbass after being a Trace amp guy for 15 years, and it's definately the main thing I loved about my Trace rig all in a little box. It's punchy, clean, it can be squishy or transparent depending on how much you use, and as far as I know it's the only one that activates the high end compression with your foot. You can pick them up on TB if your timing is good, I got mine for $150 with the rare power supply which is a great deal.

Bongo, I just read your review of the Ashdown and I wanted to ask; do you remember how you were powering the pedal when you reviewed it? Thanks.
