New Origin Effects DCX Bass

I currently use the B7K direct and it sounds pretty good, but can get a little gnarly on top. Seems like the DCX with the adaptive eq would tame the fizz. Considered buying a LPF to tame the highs, but my church pedal board is pretty small so fewer pedals the better.
You'll be fine. I use it in church every week. Works great in that context. Much better than a B7K in my opinion: the DCX Bass has a less compressed, more natural voice that is much better suited to CCM and Gospel than the Darkglass stuff.
 
I'm considering getting the DCX, but it seems like most people are running it along with something else. Does anybody use the DCX in overdrive mode as a single pedal? I'm interested in using as an overdrive pedal, but I don't really want to have to have an (eq, booster etc) to make it sound good live.
i often use mine as single pedal in overdrive mode. it sounds awesome that way.
 
The DCX is now my always on and my “amp”. It is the only EQ I need. And it shapes my Jam pedal drives perfectly.

Since I got it it’s now my favorite pedal.
