AinsleyWalker Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 Something I hear a lot is that bass-specific pedals are often a waste of time/extra money.. So I was wondering if anyone has any experience with the MXR Analog Chorus and the MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe. The Analog Chorus is a bit cheaper so I was wondering if it'd make much difference getting one or the other with bass. Will the Analog Chorus suck the low end out? Any tips or suggestions welcome.

GazWills Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I don't know that any modulation pedals can 'suck the low end out'... probably why you hardly ever see bass-specific modulation pedals. I've not tried the bass chorus deluxe, so can't comment on that, but I have the MXR analog chorus, and it sounds great. I have absolutely no desire to try the dearer MXR pedal...

[/quote] I've yet to see a bass phaser, but seen plenty of bass choruses and flangers. Tried a few choruses in the past that make the tone too 'thin' and jangly, but the Analog Chorus doesn't seem to do that. Thanks for the feedback!

ambient Posted November 22, 2015 Share Posted November 22, 2015 I've had both, unless you can get a used Bass chorus deluxe, I'd just go for the standard analog chorus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudewheresmybass Posted November 23, 2015 Share Posted November 23, 2015 I tried the bad when it came out. I heard a high pitched noise on the signal when engaged. It might have been a teething problem, but it was a deal breaker for me. I've been using the mxr black label chorus since it was released. That and the analog chorus are the same pedal, but with different paint jobs Unless I hear something extremely special, I won't be changing it out anytime soon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
