Slow phase/chorus for slapping

i really want to get the mxr chorus deluxe. i love the flanger mode, it's very verstile for bass. the x-over mode may be what you are looking for.

if you're looking for a phaser, looking up the phase 100.

 

I have an Analogman which I really like. It can be a very subtle chorus, and with the deep switch you can definitely get some different sounds out of it.

 

If you liked the Boss BF-2 and the MXR BCD maybe you can´t be wrong with the Boss Bass Chorus CEB-3. It´s a subtle chorus a tad "flangy" instead warmer, and with the filter feature you can be close to MXR, but not the same. EBS Multichorus has and interesting flanger mode too that it will give you some boost when is on, maybe too much to my taste.

 

My CEB-3 should arrive tomorrow, not from santa, from Australia Post hehe

 

Congratulations.

 

i'm not a hugh fan of chorus, but even i think the mxr bass chorus mode is too subtle. i have no complaint with the flanger mode.

also, you may want to check out the ebs chorus. you can control the dry signal inside the pedal.

mxr bass chorus mode with x-over = the low frequncies are uneffected, and higher freq are effected.
ebs chorus = all are frequencies are effected and not effected at the same time.

 

sam ash usually has them in stock. guitar center never has mxr bass line in stock, but they can order the pedal dor you.

 

to be fair to guitar center, my gc has at least one mxr bass envelope filter.

 

The best phase / chorus I've ever had for slapping is a Block 90 and Stereo chorus, both from MXR. No other combo I've owned ever came close. The SC made for a bit of a sparkling tone, not unlike a Sonic Maximiser would do, but with the added chorus effect. I don't slap much these days and don't currently own a 90, but would certainly go back to that combo should I need that type of effect.

 

the mxr stereo chorus is like the mxr bass chorus, but with no flanger mode. i here no complaint about the stereo chorus being too subtle.

 

I've had both the Stereo and the Bass Chorus Deluxe and while they do sound alike (although the SC had a little more "life" in it, IMO), I found the BCD a little too subtle for my taste, even with the intensity knob maxed. The flanger function added to effect of course, but I guess the whole flavor wasn't for me. But no mistake about it, it's a very good chorus pedal.

 

as for phasers - EBS is the absolute winner.

 

I have the MXR Chorus Deluxe and I absolutely love it. It's fantastic for bedroom and live applications. Like another poster mentioned, it has a built in crossover and flanger that you can activate, which are incredibly useful. I found myself using the crossover in all of my applications, which keeps the low end tight while giving the high end some sparkle. YMMV, as always.

 

Wow... Never really looked into this one, but it'll be in the tryouts next time I go phaser-hunting.

 

I've heard the Tech 21 Boost Bass Chorus is pretty killer. Lots of knobs to tweak.
