Compact Compressor + Drive

[Byo]

Hi all,

I am currently building a pretty tight Nano board for some potential fly dates, and wanted to check within the community if you know of a compact Compressor + Drive pedal out there that could do the job (I have been thinking of getting something custom made at some point).

The board size I am working with is of the same footprint of the Origin Effect Compact Bass, and it would be an awesome bonus to be able to control on/off each effect independently and north-facing jacks (am I asking for too much? 🤣).

Thanks in advance!

Have you looked at the TC spectra drive?

Thanks for the suggestion! 🤘

I did try one years ago, when it came out, and although the cleans were nice I was never amazed by the drive sound. 
I might need to revisit the pedal, as I am sure there are way more Toneprints available nowadays.

From memory, the Spectra Drive is too big for what I am looking for (it's a pretty tight fit).

If only Jackson Audio made a bass version of the Bloom... with the correct frequencies and a drive stage instead of the Bloom option. That would be a killer pedal.

One that resonates a little with what I need is the Trondheim Audio Devices SkarBassOne. Never tried one, but the drive section seems to be geared towards more metal and harder bass tones and not an all-rounder drive.
