The Tech 21 SansAmp Character Series VT Bass DI is a multi-functioning, multi-application pedal that features three outputs. The pedal may complement your pre-existing rig, record direct, drive power amps and go directly through the PA. The perfect piece of equipment for the travelling bassist who prioritises ease of access and an easy and direct set up, the Tech 21 VT Bass DI is gig-ready at the drop of a hat.


Primarily for players who enjoy being heard and being at the forefront of the mix, the Tech 21 VT bass DI offers a variety of tones that replicate the unique vintage tube warmth of a bygone era. The VT Bass DI also incorporates a Blend Control to adjust the ratio of direct signal and Sans Amp Circuitry, and a bite switch to engage a presence boost and a subsonic filter for massive tones that'll slice through any mix.

Manual

VT Bass DI 

The CompTortion logically, and uniquely, combines two effects: compression and distortion. No other single pedal offers this kind of control over such a range of sounds –from totally clean to light distortion to smooth overdrive, and from zero compression to completely squashed.
Musically voiced to complement each other, these effects are independently adjustable so you can control the ratio that best suits your particular taste. Characteristic of all Tech 21 products, the CompTortion is multifunctional, exceptionally versatile, and will not depersonalize your guitar tone. You can use either the compression or distortion separately, or you can, of course, mix the two together. The CompTortion can also be used for just a clean boost.

Comptortion

Die Entwicklung des Chorus-Effekts scheint im 80er-Jahre-Pop steckengeblieben zu sein, zusammen mit überbearbeiteten Gitarren, kitschigen Synthesizern und knallenden Kragen. Das ist nicht so ein Refrain. Als wir die Boost Chorus-Pedale entwickelten, gingen wir zurück in die 70er Jahre, als Chöre satt, sanft und männlich waren. Wir haben herausgefunden, warum diese Vintage-Effektpedale so gut klingen, und haben dieses Wissen in eine neue Art von Chorus-Pedal mit deutlich verbesserter Leistung und einer ganzen Reihe noch nie zuvor gehörter Sounds einfließen lassen. Slapback-, Echo-, Flanging- und Double-Effekte sind mit den Boost Chorus-Pedalen mit dem bescheidenen Namen möglich.

Aufgrund der Art und Weise, wie herkömmliche Chorus-Pedale normalerweise mit ihren Verstärkern interagieren, würden die meisten Bassisten lieber einen wütenden Dachs auf ihr Pedalboard setzen. Der Boost Chorus Bass vermeidet durch ein speziell zugeschnittenes Design seekranke Töne und Dachsgeräusche. Es verfügt über die gleichen Bedienelemente wie der Standard-Boost-Chorus, einschließlich des Multi-Voice-Schalters, unterscheidet sich jedoch durch einen Detune-Regler anstelle des Pre-Delays. Der Detune-Regler passt die Tonhöhe der Chorstimmen an und fügt klanglichen Umfang hinzu, um einen dicken, satten, bassgenauen Refrain zu erzeugen. Geschwindigkeits- und Tiefenregler fügen Modulation hinzu, sodass zumindest Ihre Grundnoten erhalten bleiben. Endlich ein Refrain, der mit Ihrem Bass harmoniert.

The evolution of the chorus effect seems to have gotten stuck in ’80s pop, along with over-processed guitars, cheesy synths and popped collars. This ain’t that kind of chorus. When we designed the Boost Chorus pedals we went back to the ’70s, when choruses were rich, smooth and manly. We figured out what made these vintage stompboxes sound so good and poured that knowledge into a new kind of chorus pedal with greatly improved performance and a whole slew of never-before-heard sounds. Slapback, echo, flanging and doubling effects are all possible from the modestly named Boost Chorus pedals.

Because of the way traditional chorus pedals typically interact with their amps, most bass players would rather put an angry badger on their pedalboard. The Boost Chorus Bass avoids seasick tones, and badgers, through a specially-tailored design. It features the same control set as the standard Boost Chorus, including the Multi Voice switch, but differs in having a Detune control in place of the Pre-Delay. The Detune control adjusts the pitch of the choral voices, adding sonic girth to create thick, lush, bass-perfect chorus. Speed and Depth controls add modulation, so at minimum your fundamental notes are preserved. Finally, a chorus that works in harmony with your bass.

Bass Boost Chorus (Blue Version)

SansAmp Character Plus - English Muffy

Get it on with this orange-flavored retro rocker. Experience T-rextacy with the greasy grit of ‘70s London glam, or take it deeper and darker into Paranoid vintage metal grind. Dime the gain to experience the sludgelicious roar of contemporary stoner rock pumping through a 4×12 cab loaded with English Greenback-style speakers. From sweet cleans to crushing distortion, the Oxford is one juicy pedal.
