[LEVALmusic]

Daryl Does it again

Another must buy pedal

[mjac28]

Is this Randy Jackson?

[ThieleM]

I am using one for guitar....it is exceptional

[xXMatthewCoreXx]

damn good compressor, I want one, NOW!

[JackDoubleBass]

Hello Darryl, i use the M87 for one week now and i have a bit of a problem using the 20:1 setting with fast attack as mentioned in the user manual. Without any led lith i hear very much distortion. Can you tell what goes wrong?

[ThePyroJoke]

What is the bag brand is it? :)

[oplah93]

somebody needs to expain to me what a bass compressor is supposed to do

[FatFingers4]

@oplah93 Bassist use compressor pedals to kind of "Beefen up" our bass tone, or get a "punchier" tone from compressor pedals. bassist also use it to balance out different playing styles. for example a bass player plays softly, then switches to a aggressive slap bass line with out distorting the P.A. speakers at a venue. more than likely he is using a compressor pedal. hope this helps. a compressor pedal is probably the most used pedal among bassist, yet it is a vary subtle effects pedal!

[oplah93]

@FatFingers4 i dunnno man, why spend 150 bucks on a pedal with limited effects than spend more money on a really nice amp that can compress and even more

[FatFingers4]

@oplah93 well you've got a good point. i know tim commerford(RATM) uses an aphex punch factory compressor. for me personally it adds a little spice to my tone.

[Samyaza69]

Very good piece of equipment! Lovely!

[Starscream513]

Im new to this compressor stuff. Do you live this on all the time or something?

[rossmorris]

Trust MXR to bring out a decent compressor.

Spent a long time waiting for a propper compressor pedal with real controls and a decent Gain Reduction read out.

[maplewoodstudio]

Hi guys, what's the signal flow here? Sounds killer I thought.

Stick

[SensibleMusician]

GREAT demo and it looks like a great product. Please MORE of both. Pedal looks great.Couple questions: why no short attack demo? Any comp sounds smooth with a long attack. This makes me think either this comp is grabby/ugly or the demonstrator just doesn't understand the pedal? And why is this marketed only to bass? Is the high end response bad? Power consumption?

[vincenzomauer88]

THIS is a great demo. No talki, but you know what going on. Perfect demo for compression. MORE PLEASE!

[pufifa]

so this (pedal) is the shit?

[nolliefIip]

That's some love makin' music.

[Direksone]

nom nom nom me want!

[scarred2112]

Dammit guy, you got me first with your M288 Bass Octave Deluxe & M82 Bass Envelope Filter (which are both fantastic on their own, but used together in a "funk" tonal situation seem to be made for each other!) and now after viewing the video on your new Bass Compressor... let's just say I very well might be in the market for a new compressor.

MXR, I just can't quit you... ;-)

[Adrift00]

This thing looks and sounds so slick.

[BassMonstrum]

Is it just me or did the sound become boomy when the compressor was engaged? I usually have a compressor to eliminate boominess, not enhance it.

[SURREALCLG]

seems freakin awesome!!!!!!

[brejorato]

Thanks for the great demo Darryl. I enjoyed your playing as much as seeing and hearing the features of this new, versatile bass pedal. I'll probably buy it.

[THRASHMANHEAVY]

i like the leds i don't like the compessor

[OpinionMan101]

He makes bass look so easy...

[robdelabassist]

one guy doesn't like compressors

[aldap69]

@MetalInstrumentals maybe because the black guys are better bass players than white guys even more than playing boring music metal

[Evin07]

I honestly don't hear a difference... Is this really worth $200 for a tad bit of clarity in sound?

[ManelRuivo]

it was this guy that recorded the basses for the 2 first games of guitar hero, wasnt he?

[bassist13]

@ManelRuivo Correct

[ManelRuivo]

@bassist13 haha!!! I KNEW IT!!! the glasses delated him! hehe... i aways wondered if i was the only one that had interest in the making ofs! maybe all the musicians had much fun seeing the record sessions. :^D

[fryBASS]

@MetalInstrumentals nope. there are probably just as many white guys (if not more, these days) that play slap. get over it.

[McFunkyy]

MXRs pedals are awesome !

[zanscath]

Why do some MXR pedals have holes near their pots?

[bonehead00764]

PS- Respect MUST be given to those who have put in their 10,000 hours of service.

Solid bass player here!

[jomarthegreat1]

representin' for the 5-string bassists out there!

[NunziettoBass]

what bass is it?



[raymondwwe]

@NunziettoBass Mike Lull M5V

[jeffkerestes]

Great Video! Darryl is such a badass.

[heminder]

what's the difference between a bass compressor and a normal compressor?

[mattlittlej]

@heminder Most normal compressors roll off the low end, which makes them unusable for bassists. Bass comps retain the low end.

[guerri89]

@MetalInstrumentals "that guy" looks like marcus miller to me

[Astrolopitekos]

@guerri89 it's Darryl Anders :) it's in the description! (and title lol) but yeah.... that comment about the "black guy" was just typical youtube stupidity :/

[ampz37]

what case is he using for the bass?

[raymondwwe]

@ampz37 I think it's iGig!! very nice case!!

[raymondwwe]

Sweet!!! M5V+M87+Aguilar+Darryl=what a sweet sound!!!

[Hallman88]

[FunkyRegan]
