BASS
AUTO Q
Using textures to enhance your sound
enhances your personality as a player and can contribute
substantially
to defining your signature as an artist.. Whether on
record or played live, the magic of an exquisite musical
texture played in an inspired moment can be the stuff
that launches legends or cements them in history. With
the MXR Bass Auto Q, your own moments of magic await
you. The Bass Auto Q can instantly "funkify" your
sound and especially exceeds when applied to sustained
notes and chords. Incorporated into even the simplest
rhythms and lead lines the Bass Auto Q can create dramatic,
counter rhythmical textural effects. Some of the more
basic features of the Bass Auto Q include volume and
decay controls while the "Q" and range and
controls provide for super precision attenuation to
accentuate even the subtlest but critical nuances of
an expressive sound. Dial in the variable shimmer effect
that is unique to the Bass Auto Q by tweaking the rate
and blend controls to determine the shimmer effect's
dominance against the auto Q effect. Encased in a classic
MXR, indestructible black metal housing, the control
stencils and pointer knobs are intelligently screened
in "glow in the dark" stencil for performances
on dark stages. Power: Single 9-volt battery or Dunlop
