The Bass9 polyphonic synthesizer in the form of a compact effect pedal from the American brand EHX turns the sound of your electric guitar into nine different positions/types of bass guitars and bass synthesizers, without requiring you to install special pickups, MIDI or any other modifications. The box uses the same technology as all pedals in the EHX9 series (the award-winning MEL9 Tape Replay Machine, for example) and a special algorithm to transpose tones one to two octaves lower while maintaining the dynamics of the sound.
The pedal is equipped with independent Dry and Effect controls to adjust the ratio of clean to processed signal, while the CTRL 1 and CTRL 2 potentiometers set a specific parameter for each of the nine programs/modes. Bass9 is wired as a buffered bypass. The included 9.6 DC 200 mA adapter is used to power the effect.
List of modes:
- PRECISION: Fender P Bass sound
- LONGHORN: Danelectro 6-string bass emulation
- FRETLESS: the sound of a fretless bass
- SYNTH: Taurus Synthesizer inspiration
- VIRTUAL: allows you to virtually adjust the density/hardness of the instrument body and neck length to achieve different bass sounds
- BOWED: string sound (cello)
- SPLIT BASS: allows guitarists to play bass tones on thick strings and chords and melodies on thin strings
- 3:03: Inspiration Roland TB-303 vintage bass synth
- FLIP-FLOP: inspired by EHX's Octave Multiplexer
