    Hey, I recently was given an old ARTVERB effects rack. WhenI use it, the low notes get muddied up. I was wondering if there is an inexpensive way to filter the effects so the lows are clean and the highs are wet. I have a G-K 800rb head that has a crossover (I don't know if that would work or not). I was thinking that perhaps an EQ on the rack in the effects loop might work. Any advice or experiences that you could offer me would be appreciated! Thanks.

    You'd pretty much have to get a separate crossover, splitting the highs and lows, then running only the highs through the effect, then a way to mix them down and through your amp.

    Not worth the trouble, IMO.

    Reverb is just about the absolute worst effect for bass, IMHO.

    Unless you like big brown muddly inarticulate sounds.

    i think a reverb with a low filter knob like the boss bass chorus pedal would be a pretty good idea..
