The Boss BC-1X Multi-Band Bass Compressor is a pedal that performs far beyond the capabilities of conventional bass compressors. This premium stompbox features professional multi-band compression controlled by intelligent circuitry making it quick and easy to dial natural sounds that are suited to any style of playing.
Designed to apply the perfect amount of compression, the BC-1X has the ability to respond to different dynamics and registers – ensuring your tone never gets over-squeezed or muddy. Transparent, powerful, and easy to use – the BC-1X is a must-have stompbox that delivers studio quality punch and precision.
Endless tonal possibilities The Boss BC-1X Multi-Band Bass Compressor is on the surface equipped with a simple four-knob interface, but hidden beneath is a complex multi-band processor with numerous interlocking parameters. As you turn the knobs, multiple parameters are adjusted simultaneously. This innovative design allows a wide range of tone shaping possibilities with minimal effort, and thanks to the intelligent technology inside, you’ll always achieve perfect sounds at every setting – from subtle dynamic control to extreme compression.
Precision & a natural sound The Boss BC-1X Multi-Band Bass Compressor is an indispensable tool for today’s discerning bass players, and while there are many bass compressors available, the BC-1X stands alone as a completely unique product. Unlike conventional units that compress the fundamental tone and muffle the sound, the advanced BOSS MDP tech in this pedal provides perfectly natural compression that never overwhelms the character of your instrument. Every nuance is captured and processed accurately, even with aggressive compressor settings. In every register, your sound is true, allowing you to put your heart into playing without fussing with different settings for every song or style.
Professional features for performing players The Boss BC-1X Multi-Band Bass Compressor is designed and engineered with professional practicality in mind. The 18-volt input circuitry provides ample headroom without clipping, even with the hottest signal from active basses. A 16-segment gain reduction indicator clearly displays the amount of compression at all times – a high-end feature rarely seen in stompbox compressors. Complete with the highly robust and road-worthy BOSS compact chassis, the BC-1X delivers a clear and punchy sound with no distortion, guaranteeing reliability for years of demanding professional use.
