    NuX Komp Core Deluxe

    I'm rather curious about this pedal. I searched, and that turned up absolutely nothing on TB. In fact, it's hard to find much info at all on it. Surely someone's tried it. It has a very nice set of controls: volume, blend, attack, and sustain knobs, plus a 3-way toggle for "compression...

    Compressor comparison (with sound samples)

    I'm curious... I just added a couple of compressors to my stable. I recorded the same 2 brief bits using 3 different compressors (all with a pretty light compression setting). One is a short legato line, the other is a short groove with some ghost notes. I wasn't super scientific about it and...

    Effect of the Effects Forum: FX GAS EFFECT...

    I suspect that I am probably not alone in this, but the Effects Forum has had a substantial effect on my pocketbook in the past while. Reading about banana mastroshkas, deep impacts and such tilted me into the acquisition of a $700 synth box. It's a cool toy that I haven't actually used in about...

    Compressor for a fatter tone - option paralysis

    Hey all! I'm a gigging bassist and have never owned a compressor pedal before but do think I could benefit from having one. My sound is overall warm, round and vintage like (both with my j and p basses, pick and finger style no slaps). I will be using the pedal for live applications only, and...

    6 string SIT Silencers vs Ken Smith Compressors

    The Ken Smith strings are made by GHS(?), so I believe they are similar to their pressure wounds. I preferred the Smith website over GHS for the ease of buying a separate C and B. The Smith makes their C at .28, which I like. Both use a proprietary alloy? The SIT Silencers use nickle and are...

    Compressors Again: Running Two?

    I run a decent sized board with a bunch of dirt on it. I run an Empress Comp first in my chain, it's my only always on pedal - used for fattening and medium squash, though blended 60-70%. What I'd like to do is run the Empress at the END of my chain, and set it up more like a clean (tone wise)...

    Zoom B3n's compressors -- better than analog

    I picked up a Zoom B3n and have been playing around with it over the weekend... I though I would use it just for modulation effects, but the SanSamp emulation and tube compressor are so good, I'm wondering if I will need analog at all! Has anyone used the B3n to replace compressors and drive boxes?

    Can the Spectra Comp emulate other known compressors?

    So, I have a question for the users of the Spectra Comp. I've done some searches on TB and taken a look at a bunch of reviews and video and the pedal has caught my eye. I'm currently using an MXR Bass Compressor and while I do not have any complaints about it I recently heard an FEA Labs...

    MTD USA (or similar) players, what compressors are you using? Anything else in the signal chain?

Any other MTD USA players, or similar designed bass users, I would love to hear your recommendations. MTD 634 (roasted...

    Keeley Bassist vs. Duncan Studio Bass..or...top jack compressors?

    I love my Keeley Bassist. I really really do. It's the best compressor I've used for...I guess what you'd call peak limiting...evening things out so all the notes are the same level. I'll always have one on my main board. But I'm changing my secondary board around, which is a Nano, and I may...

    "I don't see what people do with these compressors"

    My Compressore seems to have become a fizzly-noise machine rather than a useful tool, so I went to Craigslist to see what I could find. Lo and behold, there's an Earthquaker The Warden at a reasonable price. I called the guy. "Yeah, it's basically new; I don't see what people do with these...

    are my peavey t-40's pickups killing compressors?

    i've been thinking i'd like a compressor to use as an effect on some songs, rather than an "always on". so i've tried a few of the readily-available "good-for-the-price" pedals (mxr m87, e-h bass preacher, boss bc-1x, et cetera). i plug them in at the store (with a bass from the store) and they...

    Possible fix for compressors & envelope filters

    I'm sure a lot of bassists use a compressor before there effects to even out their string hits, or even just allow different techniques to be used without giant volume changes. But at the same time I love how envelope filters react to my fingers and movement is the right hand but it seems like I...

    Compressors - why are they so common with bass?

    I noticed that a lot of bass players use compressors. Why is that? Is it certain styles of music that use it? Just trying to learn.

    I just received my SpectraComp. Love it!

    I just received my SpectraComp. Love it! And I'm usually not a fan of compressors, and usually don't use one. What's different about this one is that, being 3-way multiband, it is a tone enhancer. With the editor, one can get inside the settings and tweak till the cows come home, go out, and...
