OC Bass - Optical Compressor
Unleash the thunderous power of your bass with the Whirlwind OC Bass Optical Compressor! This versatile pedal is both a dynamic compressor and a responsive limiter, giving you complete control over the punch and sustain of your low-end tones. The secret lies in its optical compression circuitry, which responds to your playing with lightning-fast attack speeds. Dial in a super-tight, thumping compression for slap-happy grooves, or switch to a lush, sustained tone that'll make your notes sing. Three selectable attack settings let you fine-tune the response, from lightning-fast to a more gradual squeeze. But the OC Bass isn't just about squashing your signal – it's also a powerful limiter, perfect for taming wild transients and keeping your low end in check. Set the attack switch to "Med" in limiter mode, and prepare to unlock a whole new world of funky, punchy bass tones that'll have your bandmates begging for more. Versatile input and output controls allow you to perfectly match the OC Bass to your rig, whether you're driving a vintage tube amp or a modern digital setup. Combine it with Whirlwind's BASS TEN 10-band EQ, and you've got a dynamic duo that'll transform your bass sound from ho-hum to utterly thunderous. Powered by an included 18V adapter, the OC Bass is built to withstand the rigors of the road. So if you're after a compressor that can keep up with your thunderous low end, look no further than this optical masterpiece from Whirlwind.
