    MXR BASS ENVELOPE FILTER
    The Bass Envelope Filter delivers classic, analog, envelope filter sounds in an easy-to-use and compact pedal designed specifically for bass. Separate Dry and Effect controls let you dial in the perfect mix of effected and direct signals, so you can bring the funk without losing the low end. Its wide range of filter tones can be shaped with the Decay and Q controls, and a simple twist of the Sensitivity knob can tailor the pedal for your attack-as well as adjust for passive or active basses. The Bass Envelope Filter's power supply circuitry is designed to withstand over-voltage or polarity mishaps, and its true-bypass switching preserves your tone in bypass mode. It's all packaged in a durable, lightweight, Phase 90-size aluminum housing for the ultimate in portability and pedalboard space-saving dimensions.
    Power: Dunlop ECB003 AC Adapter or Single 9 volt battery

      As far as I know thundercat uses the Moog MF-1 but that’s out of most peoples price range so this is a great alternative

  • @connormacaulay7280

    The thing about this pedal is that you have separate "dry" and "fx" controls so you can dial in the right amount of filter sound that you need so you don't get completely lost. CHeck out Ed Friedland's video demonstrating this same pedal, and when he does his slap demonstration he turns down the effect so you can hear more of the bass. It's really usable, unlike a lot of other envelope filters without those same controls.

      Augustus Crane He also uses it during the guitar solo of Jambi, but he uses a guyatone bottom autowah in that song, it sounds pretty similar to this bass envelope filter though, could make for a pretty accurate substitute

    • @Mud9
      @Mud9 3 роки тому

      I'm late to the party, but if you see them live, he uses it in songs that previously didn't have it. He kicked it on during stinkfist when I saw them last year.

  • @BassGojira
    @BassGojira 12 років тому +2

    @loudfastanddirty - the separate "Dry" knob lets you dial in as much of the dry signal as you want, so you can get as much real bass sound as you need.

    Just out of curiosity, how would this sound with a guitar? I'm not sure if the effect is low-frequency specific or not, or just how much of a different colour of sound you would get out of a guitar. I'm building a pedal board that I'm using for both my bass and guitar rigs, so I'm looking for gear that works well with both.

    • @tkumec
      @tkumec 10 років тому +4

      Hey man! My guitarist in my band uses this for his guitar and it sounds SOO good! Perfect replication of Jerry Garcia on Fire on The Mountain. Just watch out cuz the wave can go really low and might blow out a cheaper speaker.

    • @TheGardenNoam
      @TheGardenNoam 3 роки тому +2

      why? They are both envelope filters, a wah just manually controls to sweep rate or sensitivity like this mxr calls it

  • @OculusSF

    Because it is a audio-band FILTER, whose cutoff frequency follows the amplitude ENVELOPE of the incoming signal.

  • @cuartonine
    @cuartonine 12 років тому +1

    okay loudfastanddirty, we'll just go ahead and discount the work of Stevie Wonder, Bootsy Collins, numerous classic and funk and neo-soul artists, U2, Tool, and another dozen or so cutting edge rock bands just cause you don't like envelope filters. take it easy, speaking in absolutes like that just makes no sense, a person could easily argue that distortion or fuzz is garbage as well. you gotta judge a pedal if it acheives what it sets out to do and if it does it well.

  • @Psychedelictripper
    @Psychedelictripper 11 років тому

    I'm agreeing with what some others are saying..my problem with adding effects to bass is it takes too much away from the bass sound which in a 4 piece set up is a large part of the orchestration. It turns a good bass tone into a cheap roland drum machine/video game sound. Leave the modulation for the guitars.

      He's demonstrating the sweep of the q. The easiest way to hear the different resonant peak is by sweeping on one note. I can see why it would be boring to some....but those of us who are more patient don't mind.

    • @michaelwinsor7747

      Just like any musical device, it's a tool. It's not just what a device like this does for a bass, but what it does to inspire an artists creativity. If it's not your bag, that's cool, but please respect the fact that there are plenty of people who do dig it. Calling it "crap" is just your opinion. Thanks

  • @Psychedelictripper
    @Psychedelictripper 11 років тому +1

    Because I like 60's psychedelia music not seinfeld theme music. I would equate such sounds with a bad trip. A bass should drive a song not jump around all intelligently like the player had ants in his pants. Filtering a bass loses all the tone.
