My Review: MXR has built a studio-quality analog FET compressor into a standard sized bass pedal that sounds very transparent and doesn’t color your tone. Type: Analog Multi-band Bass Compressor Pedal TC Electronic Spectra Comp Bass Compressor Type: Digital Multi-band Bass Compressor Pedalĩ. Electro-Harmonix Bass Preacher (Best Cheap)Ĭompressor Tech: Analog compression circuit Aguilar TLC Bass Compressor (Editor's Choice)Ĭompressor Tech: proprietary TLC compression (probably a form of VCA circuit)Ĥ. MXR M282 Dyna Comp Bass Compressor (Best Value)ģ. Normally is used to compensate for the level that is lost when compressing.1. Gain: Increases or decreases the signal level.Decay (Release): It is the time it takes for the compressor to stop compressing and is measured in microseconds and miliseconds.Attack: This is the time it takes for the compressor to compress the signal once it exceeds the threshold level and is measured in microseconds and miliseconds.For example, a 4: 1 ratio indicates the compressor that once the signal level exceeds the amount set in the threshold, the signal level is allowed to decrease 1 dB for every 4 dB of increase in signal.

Ratio: Indicates the amount of signal reduction and is usually expressed as two numbers.

The lower the threshold, the more of the signal will be processed.

Threshold: It is the parameter that indicates to the compressor from which signal level it is going to act, and is measured in decibels.

Typically a compressor usually has the following parameters: That is, the difference between the weakest sound and the loudest, generating a more constant and, therefore, defined signal. A compressor is an electronic processor that reduces the dynamic range of the signal. That is to say, variations on the volumen while playing. A bass compressor is totally essential for your sound, since the bass guitar is an instrument with great variations in dynamic.
