Bankai Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 The title gives it away I'm in the market for a rackmount compressor to use for bass. Any recommendations? Looking to spend about £100 at most. Seen a few alesis models that look good but I've no idea to their performance with bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stewart Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 You might find a used dbx 166 for that sort of money - which would be a much better prospect IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JMT3781 Posted March 8, 2010 Share Posted March 8, 2010 the DBX ones are great There are plenty of great pedal ones though, DHA makes a great one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bankai Posted March 8, 2010 Author Share Posted March 8, 2010 Alright. I'll post up in the wanted section. Also after a rack tuner but my minds set on a Korg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dood Posted March 11, 2010 Share Posted March 11, 2010 I've said it before, I shall say it again! Get the TC Electronic C300 - It has been designed so that even those who have no idea how to use a compressor can plug in and get perfect results. Featuring a rotary control for source specific programming. Multiband, Fullband, Parallel compression and fully configurable noisegates all in one box - I can't think of another compressor that has so many features and sounds so good for the price.
