Deluxe Bass Big Muff Pi
Thunderous bass fuzz with crossover control and expanded I/O in the most versitile Bass Big Muff ever!
The EHX Deluxe Bass Big Muff is the flagship of EHX bass fuzz and delivers enhancements to the classic Bass Big Muff Pi that are specifically tailored to the needs of the modern bass player.
The sturdy foundation of the Deluxe Bass Big Muff is the thunderous tone insprired by the classic Black Russian Big Muff of the ’90s. Added to that is a Blend knob to mix back in your original tone and add definition to your low end. A Gate quiets unwanted hiss for a smooth performance.
The ultimate tone-scultor of the pedal is the Crossover section. Here the Fuzz and Dry signals are seperated and run though a High Pass Filter and Low Pass Filter respectively. This creates a tone with fiery top and and a huge, thumping bottom.
This is the most versitile Bass Big Muff ever!
Controls:
1. VOLUME: Works as a master volume for the entire pedal and is capable of boosting the input signal by 14dB above unity gain.2. BLEND: This mixes between the dry and distorted signals. Turn this knob fully counterclockwise for 100% dry signal and fully clockwise for 100% wet signal. Setting the BLEND knob to noon yields a 50/50 mix of dry/distorted signal.3. TONE: Provides a range of sounds from high treble to deep bass on the distorted effect only. The overall tone filter frequencies were carefully chosen to enhance your bass guitar. As you turn the TONE knob clockwise the treble response of the Big Muff distortion increases.4. SUSTAIN: As in the original Big Muff Pi, adjusts the amount of sustain and distortion.5. GATE: Controls the input amplitude needed to open the noise gate. As you turn the GATE knob clockwise, the amount of gating increases, requiring a louder signal to open the gate and allow your instrument to pass through. Turning the GATE knob down all the way disables the noise gate function.6. HPF: When CROSSOVER is engaged the signal just prior to entering the distortion circuit is sent through a second-order high pass filter. The HPF knob adjusts the cutoff frequency range of the high pass filter from 125Hz to 1.75kHz, with the frequency increasing as the knob is turned clockwise.7. LPF: When CROSSOVER is engaged the dry signal is sent through a second-order low pass filter. The LPF knob adjusts the cutoff frequency range of the low pass filter from 60Hz to 10kHz, with the frequency increasing as the knob is turned clockwise.8. INPUT: This toggle switch engages 10dB of attenuation on the input to make the Deluxe Bass Big Muff friendlier to basses with active pickups.
