The BLAXX BX-BASS LIMIT is a limiter and enhancer pedal for electric bass from the BLAXX series by Stagg, using Volume, Threshold, and Attack controls to smooth bass dynamics and clamp down on signal peaks before they overload an amplifier or recording interface. The enhancer stage adds clarity and definition back into the compressed, limited bass signal so the tone stays present rather than dull or squashed. Users report noiseless, transparent limiting that works well set at the end of a bass pedal chain. It suits bass players wanting a straightforward, budget-friendly way to tame dynamic peaks and keep a tight, controlled low end live or in the studio.
The MXR M87B Blackout Bass Compressor is a limited edition bass compressor from MXR (Dunlop), delivering studio-quality FET compression for bass guitar with Input, Attack, Release, Output, and Ratio controls in a special Blackout black finish. The M87 Bass Compressor is one of the most acclaimed bass compressors, providing transparent, studio-grade compression that enhances bass tone without coloring it.
