What are the best effects needed in a bass pedalboard?
I am trying to buildup a bass pedalboard. So far I have a Boss ODB-3 and a EHX Russian Big Muff. What other kinds of effects pedals would be needed for a bass pedalboard?
You are probably gonna need a compressor too. You didn’t mention what type of music you will play but some useful other options would be an envelope filter for some cool funky sounds and probably a flanger to give a little life to the Big Muff. other than those most effects for bass aren’t really usable in a band situation. Another option would be a chorus but use that very sparingly, used correctly it will add some body to your tone but over use it and everybody is gonna be tellin you to tune up cause you will definitely sound out of tune. I would look to EH for all but the chorus and check out digitech for that.
