MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe - Analog Bucket Brigade Technology | No Limit Guitar Co, Idaho Falls
The MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe delivers shimmering, liquid chorus and swooshing flanger effects powered by pure analog bucket-brigade technology while preserving the punch and fundamental of your low end. This bass-specific modulation pedal features innovative X-Over mode that decreases low-frequency modulation at 100Hz, perfect for playing upper register chords and melodies while keeping the low end in tune. Perfect for bassists seeking lush modulation effects that enhance rather than compromise their bass presence in the mix.
Product Overview
The Bass Chorus Deluxe employs classic analog bucket-brigade circuitry to create warm, musical modulation effects without the sterile character of digital processing. This bass-optimized design ensures your fundamental frequencies remain tight and focused while adding beautiful movement and dimension to your overall sound.
The innovative X-Over mode addresses the common problem of low-frequency modulation that can make bass lines sound out of tune or unfocused. By decreasing modulation in low frequencies at 100Hz, this pedal allows you to add lush chorus to upper register playing while maintaining a solid foundation in your low end.
The dual-mode design provides both chorus and flanger effects with dedicated top-mounted buttons and LED status indicators for easy visual confirmation during performance. Bass and Treble controls allow precise tonal shaping of the effect, while the optional stereo hardwire bypass mode enables true stereo effects when using two amplifiers.
Ideal For
- Jazz and fusion bassists adding sophisticated modulation to chord work and melodic passages
- Progressive rock players seeking lush atmospheric textures without losing low-end definition
- Studio musicians needing versatile modulation that sits well in dense arrangements
- Experimental bassists exploring spatial effects while maintaining fundamental bass presence
- Cover band musicians replicating classic modulated bass tones from the 80s and 90s
