Bass pedal EBS MultiComp

The EBS MULTICOMP is a high performance, analog compression pedal, with a choice between solid state, tube simulation and multi-band compression. 

Make Your Sound Even Better. The MultiComp can make a good sounding instrument sound even better. Once you’ve tried it, you’ll never want to play without it! The EBS MultiComp is equally good for guitar as bass, and is the best selling EBS pedal ever reaching 'Hall of Fame' status at some of the most well known online stores.

Less is more. The MultiComp may be the easiest compressor around to dial in. Since it is so smooth and well though out, all you need is to set the level of Comp/Limit with one knob, Gain with another, and then choose the type or mode of compression between Tubeism, Multi Band (MB) and Normal. Done! For those that need more, there is an Active/Passive switch on the side as well as an internal trim pot for the Threshold located under the hood.

Evolution. The MultiComp was first introduced in 1998. From the 2008 edition improvements added 3 dB higher headroom, higher sensitivity and new analog circuitry with higher dynamics and lower noise, as well as true bypass switching technique.

Note: A proof of the quality of this pedal is that all bass on Lamb Of God's Grammy Nominated album, Resolution, was re-amped through an EBS MultiComp. The pedal an also be spotted in John Campbell's live setup marked with a big yellow tape that says 'ON'. In other words, it has become a major impact on Lamb of God's bass sound.

REVIEW from Sound On Sound, UK 2011
EBS MultiComp
By Matt Houghton
"EBS may specialise in bass, but as there’s ostensibly nothing bass-specific about a compressor, I thought I’d give the MultiComp a spin on electric guitar as well — and a very nice job it did, too. In fact, so nice was it, that if you’re looking for a guitar compressor pedal I’d definitely recommend trying it out."
