Achieving a punchy, aggressive distortion for bass that’s also full and fat can be a challenge. The Darkglass Microtubes X Distortion Bass Effects Pedal solves this problem in a compact form. It uses two variable filters to split the signal into high-pass and low-pass components. The high-pass signal is distorted using CMOS circuitry for rich harmonics and attack, while the low-pass signal (bass) remains untouched. This allows for virtually unlimited fullness, size, and definition. The Microtubes X features simple controls for tweaking tone, making it difficult to dial in a bad sound. Its design ensures that bassists can achieve a wide range of tones with ease, from thick, fuzzier saturation to ultra-sharp definition, regardless of their instrument or string age.
