    Hey Friends!
    If you're on this channel, chances are you've heard of the cabal of arcane smiths over at Origin Effects, and are familiar with their game-changing compressors.
    Nothing seems to be able to prevent them taking a good thing (the Cali76 Compact) and making it better! The new Cali76 Bass Compressor keeps the intuitive and bass-loving operation of the Cali Compact and adds the visual luxury of a Gain Reduction Meter (yay!) and internal voltage boosting up to 24v (okay!).
    This is a great pedal for bassists, with a HPF to leave your earthquake frequencies free to do their thing, and a "Dry" knob to add some life back to your signal after you get your peaks under control. I had a blast getting to know this marvel of British Brushed Aluminum.
    As always, let me know what you think in the comments, and thanks for watching. You've been amazing.

    I'm one of this dude's biggest fans, and I personally think the goal at 7:00 is pure genius: "Make Slapping Tolerable". It's the true meaning of bass in yo face.

    Nice touch adding the meter. Having a visual cue helps to confirm you’ve not shanked a control with an errant toe kick on a dark stage.

    This is the only pedal demo on RUclips to use the word “knobbery.” 😊 As a new owner of this pedal myself, I totally agree that it’s the cat’s pajamas. The pre in this thing is magic.

    Awesome content, Amos. I have been eyeballing the older versions of the Cali76 but this new version just seems to be ticking all the boxes that had me on the fence before. Long story to say it's on the way..
    Oh and by the way, I love love LOVE your custom BB. Yamaha has been putting out amazing basses; if a version similar to yours would be released as a signature, I'm pretty sure they'd fly off the shelves. So tasty sounding AND looking!

    Nice demo. I had the Cali76 Compact Bass for the last few years and it's been a wonderful compressor. I snached one of these up as soon as it was announced and it's simply brilliant! Just when I thought the Cali76 couldn't really be improved upon, the new Bass Compressor comes along. I LOVE the LED metering. That was my only gripe about the Compact Bass.

    Can't go wrong with either the Cali76 or the Empress Bass Compressor. I tend to prefer the Empress because I'll take separate Attack/Release controls over continuous ratio settings, personally, and I like having separate meters for both input and gain reduction.

Going to spend some more time comparing the CB to V2, but so far I'm not hearing anything in the V2 that's missing. Just moar better. Enjoy your walk!

    Hey Amos, roughly how many Hz do you tend to set your HPF to on comps that have it?

    • @AmosHeller
      @AmosHeller  3 месяца назад +1

      This is my first experience with it, and I don’t know for sure since they aren’t marked on the pedal. I just went with feel

    • @rkharper
      @rkharper 3 месяца назад

      ​​​@@AmosHeller it's from 0Hz to 400Hz, so noon would be 200Hz, and so on. As I mentioned already, the HPF is in the sidechain and is here only to determine, which frequencies above the HPF knob will trigger the Compressor. Its not a usual HPF, where the lows are not affected by the Compressor. Here, the whole signal gets compressed, when the Comp kicks in.

      Less versatile out of the box (only one mode) and as a result a little more focused. The HL in FET mode is doing an impression of the 1176 just as this one it. Loved the HPF on the Cali

  • @rkharper
    @rkharper 3 месяца назад

    Dear Amos,
    I noticed you understood the HPF wrong. It doesn't act as a HPF per se (leaving the low frequencies unafected). The HPF on this unit is in the sidechain and only determines, which frequencies hits the compressor . But still, the whole signal will be compressed, also the lows.

    • @rkharper
      @rkharper 3 месяца назад

      ​@Kbctl9190 nope, he literally says: "the HPF will leave the low frequencies alone", which it doesnt. And literally writes: increase the HPF to recover some lows", which it doesn't. Also: "lets rescue some low end / add some unbothered lows" again, not what the HPF does.

    • @rkharper
      @rkharper 3 месяца назад

      ​​​@@KaltOhm exactly THAT is NOT what is happening! The COMPLETE signal gets compressed, always! The HPF is in the sidechain and determines, which frequencies above the HPF control trigger the compressor. For further information, check the official quick start guide video at 5.14
