Bass Compressor

[DanLacour]

After making a HUGE mistake and getting rid of my Trace Elliot Dual Compressor pedal, I'm back in the market for another. Since the only place I can find one is on Ebay...and often at very high prices, can someone suggest something similar. My Boss Nanocompressor is getting me by, but is there something specifically designed for bass?

The EBS multicomp works great!!!
The EHX black finger seems to be really good also, even if it is a non specific bass effect

The only dual band that's out right now (similar to the Trace you had) that I know of, is the DigiTech Bass Squeeze.

The EBS MultiComp is dual band. Mind you, the trim pots for adjusting the different band compression levels are inside the pedal so you need to open the pedal up to set them. But once you've got the setting you like, you shouldn't have to do that again.
