Darkglass Microtubes X7 Multiband Bass Drive/EQ/DI - Secondhand

Full Description

Aggressive, exhilarating distortion

Bass distortion with immense power that you'll never grow tired of hearing. The Microtubes X7 splits off low and high frequencies and processes them separately. This means your low-end, complete bass sound is split off through a low-pass signal, and is left completely untouched. With this, you'll enjoy meaty, gigantic bass power to make any mix sound full and rich.

Higher frequencies sent through a high-pass filter are distorted to give you amazing crunch with depth and scintillating attack. Paired with the pure bass tones, this gives you an overall sound like no other. You'll benefit from explosive bass strength and exciting distortion combined in a mix to give you your biggest sound ever.

Totally tour-friendly

The most usable pedal you've ever experienced. The X7 is the perfect addition to your touring setup, allowing you to unleash distorted bass power in every live show. Its compact size makes it easy to transport and attach to even the most packed pedalboard. Furthermore, with a selection of direct outputs including parallel, affected, and balanced XLR, you're certain to find a way to fit the X7 into your live set up perfectly. The ideal companion for touring bassists.

Dial in your perfect tone

Freedom to find the exact sound you desire. The Microtubes X7 allows you to intricately tailor your tone to incredibly precise levels. This is thanks to its in-built 4-band graphic equaliser. Mid controls give you maximum tonal flexibility, meaning whatever sound you're searching for, you'll be able to find it with the X7.
