Description

The Microtubes X Ultra is a powerful preamp pedal featuring all the great controls that its predecessor has that allow users to select exactly what frequencies they want to compress and saturate for the low and treble respectively, but with four major additions providing an additional layer of flexibility, while maintaining the same compact footprint, making it an extremely complete tool for the modern bassist.

Wonderful CPU saver and bass preamp!
I purchased this to help free up CPU usage when recording bass tracks. It works really well and replaced 90% of plugins on my bass track. I have a lower noise floor and it sounds almost identical if not better than what I had been working with before through software.

The best pedal I've ever used.
Not only the best pedal I've ever used, but even a better tube driven tone than all my mesa and ampeg heads previously used. The parallel signal chain makes the deal. Being parallel allows you to add the distortion to only selected frequencies above your setting, which starts as low as 100hz, which is almost the entire signal. You can dial it up to 1Khz, meaning you're adding distortion to only the 1Khz band and above. This allows you to maintain a tight clean low end, with a grindy high end. Most people would use a guitar amp with a bass amp to get this sort of tone live, and on recordings they record two separate tracks, one clean and one distorted, but this pedal does it alone. ... show more

This is Dark!!
Great overdrive/DI! So many options that I haven't even been able to try them all yet. So many compliments when I use this live. But I truly love it when I practice. The aux in makes a great practice companion.
