Bass Compressor Pedals | 8 Best Compression Pedals for Bass 2018

What is a Bass Compressor Pedal?

Bass compressor pedals are effects processors that reduce the dynamic range of the input signal, meaning that the natural dynamic inconsistencies that are apparent in any bassist’s playing are reduced. A bass compression pedal is useful for both live performances and within a recording studio environment.

Analogue vs Digital Bass Compression Pedals

Bass compressor pedals have traditionally used analog circuitry, and whilst most still do, as it provides a very natural sounding compression, the advancements in digital audio emulation have been exemplary, and therefore some pedals such as the Boss BC-1X actually uses digital circuitry as it’s known to reduce static noise that is caused by the analog circuitry.

However, for some, this noise creates a depth to the sound and adds character. I advise that you take a look and listen to all of the video demonstrations that we’ve supplied following each processor review.

What Does a Bass Compressor Pedal Do?

As we’ve previously discussed, a compressor pedal for bass guitars will help limit the dynamic range of the input signal, outputting a more limited signal.

The outputted signal is determined by a number of settings on the interface itself, which the user can adjust accordingly; There settings usually specify the upper and lower dB range of inputted signal to which if this is surpassed, the signal will either be boosted (if it’s lower than a certain dB level) or limited (if it’s louder than a certain dB level).

The style of music played will also play an important factor into determining the level of compression applied, with styles such as Pop/Rock being renowned for over-compressing.

These bass compression processors are usually used alongside other bass effects pedals, i.e bass octave pedals, but are placed further along in the signal path, to compress the overall signal after all other effects have been introduced.

When to Use a Bass Guitar Compressor Pedal

These pedals are typically used within a live performance setting, allowing a band to gain a balanced sound, with all instruments using compressors. Although these processors can be used within a recording studio, they are usually not, since every studio will have rack-mountable compression units which provide ultra high-quality signal compression, suitable for most instruments.

So let’s get to it, what are the best bass compressor pedals of 2018?

Best Bass Compression Pedals of 2018

MXR M87 Bass Compressor Pedal – Buy on Amazon – Editor’s Recommendation

Boss BC-1X – Bass Compressor – Buy on Amazon – Editor’s 2nd Recommendation

MXR M76 Studio Compressor – Buy on Amazon

Electro-Harmonix Bass Preacher Bass Compressor – Buy on Amazon

EBS Sweden AB EBS-Pedal-SE-MC Bass Compression Effect Pedal – Buy on Amazon

MXR M87 Bass Compressor Pedal – Editor’s Recommendation

Features

Lightweight Bass compression processor with true bypass

Sleek and Stylish aesthetics, with White Casing and Cool Blue LED when Compressor is Active

Durable aluminium chassis and stompbox

10 bright LEDs to represent gain-reduction status

CHT (Constant Headroom Technology) for clean compression

Features an array of interface controls, with parameters for the following : Attack, Release, Ratio, Input, and Output.

Technical Specifications

Weight : 0.9 pounds

Dimensions : 5.5 x 4.5 x 2.5 inches

Constant Headroom Technology which represents an internal voltage doubler so when the pedal power supply is plugged in, the voltage doubles from 9v to 18v, providing clean headroom.

For a demonstration of the processor, take a look at the video demonstration below:

youtube

Boss BC-1X – Bass Compressor – Editor’s 2nd Recommendation

Features

High quality multi-band digital compressor with intelligent circuitry

Very durable outer metal chassis

Range of controls, stomp-box on/off, compression level, release, ratio and threshold allowing the player to adjust settings to the micro level

12 LED light for visual compression display

Technical Specifications

Weight : 1.27 pound

Dimensions :5.8w x 3.5l x 2.5h inches

Powered on 9V battery

For a demonstration of the processor, take a look at the video demonstration below:

youtube

MXR M76 Studio Compressor

Features

Lightweight compression processor with true bypass

Durable aluminium chassis and stompbox

10 LEDs to represent gain-reduction status

CHT (Constant Headroom Technology) for clean compression

The unit has interface controls for the following signal parameters : Attack, Release, Ratio, Input, and Output.

Technical Specifications

Weight : 0.9 pounds

Dimensions : 5.5 x 4.5 x 2.5 inches

Constant Headroom Technology which represents an internal voltage doubler so when the pedal power supply is plugged in, the voltage doubles from 9v to 18v, providing clean headroom.

This processor is suitable for someone looking for a compressor which can be used on both guitar and bass. However, if you’re looking for a dedicated bass compressor pedal (which is highly likely) then take a look at the MXR M87.

For a demonstration of the processor, take a look at the video demonstration below:

youtube

MXR M102 Dyna Comp Compressor Pedal

Features

Lightweight compression processor

Durable aluminium chassis and stompbox

Simple operation with only two variable filters: Output level and Sensitivity level

Technical Specifications

電源が届いたので、ひとまず仮組み！電源はstrymonのzumaが狙い目だったんだけど、発売予定から一年経っても出てないなら仕方がないと諦める(^^;) あとはコンプをspectracompに、マキシマイザーを小型のに、ノイズ対策でmicrohushは確定かな？音色として欲しいのはchorus/deray。それはJohn Petrucciシグネチャーchorusを入れようかと悩み中～( ´艸｀) chorusはやっぱりほしいな～ってつくづく思う今日この頃。あと揃っていないのはデジタル系だから、買ったらもう一段電源を足して、デジアナノイズ対策しようかなと。。。電源5000円しないからいい感じよ(笑) 何気にチューナーもキーボーディストとの演奏対策に、ストロボ式のものを採用！実は生産終了品！徐々に理想型が近づいてきましたなーむふふ... #ベース #エレキベース #エフェクター #エフェクターボード #仮組 #bass #effecter #pedalboard #strobetuner #planetwaves #mxr #m87 #m80 #bmc #ebs #billysheehansignaturedrive #bbe #sonicstomp #viloos #dc8
