This robust and highly outfitted piece from Empress takes cues from a number of previous EQ-driven pedals for something completely fresh for bassists seeking the absolute best out of an EQ experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Empress Bass ParaEq sets out to provide a bass-centered parametric EQ experience unlike any other. With a suite of parameter controls designed for fidelity and playability, the Bass ParaEq is a heaven-sent for both sonic tinkerers and stage stormers, alike. This all begins with the Empress Bass Compressor and ParaEq MKII – two popular Empress designs that each took on something of a life of their own with the EQ and compression-crazed players of the world. Empress then recognized the need for an EQ pedal specializing in low-end signals and translated some of their Bass Compressor and ParaEq's foundational elements into this new model. What came of this translation is something not just familiar, but fresh and ready for new tonal challenges.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree parametric EQ bands form the basis for the Bass ParaEq's functional experience. Each band, equipped with fully sweepable EQ controls, allows for either broad-strokes tone shaping or surgical precision. This would all be well and good enough, if not for Empress's newly designed dynamic low shelf that adjusts its range depending on how much boost or cut is applied to the effect. Presenting intuitive control over the foundation of your bass tone, the Bass ParaEq is seamlessly controllable yet strikingly deep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnboard, the Bass ParaEq's high and low-pass filters assist in removing unwanted low-end rumble or harsh upper frequencies. The pedal's clean boost effect section builds upon this experience with up to thirty decibels of gain to punch in for pushing to the front of the mix, making up gain differences, or hitting the front end of an amp harder. Keeping this whole EQ'ing experience under control is a high-impedance input that allows for use with piezo pickups, should upright or acoustic basses be your specialty. What's more, an auto-detecting balanced output retains clarity in your signal throughout long cable runs while twenty-seven volts of internal headroom, a low-noise signal path, and Empress's signature transparent EQ circuitry make a studio-worthy sound out of any setup.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs a purposefully bass-forward piece of equipment, the Empress Bass ParaEq is a must-see and must-hear for every bassist.
