Electro-Harmonix Reissues USA-Made Bassball Envelope Filter
November 30, 2000Electro-Harmonix has announced the release of the USA-made Bassballs twin
dynamic envelope follower for electric bass and guitar. This reissue
faithfully recreates the look and sound of the legendary effect and is made
in New
York City.
Bassballs uses two critically tuned, sweeping dynamic filters that respond
sensitively to attack variations creating shifting peaks and notches to
produce
vowel-like overtones. The switchable Distortion mode's warm harmonic
distortion
intensifies the overtones and deep resonance of the effect. The Sensitivity
control
determines how sensitive the fillers are to playing dynamics and lets the
musician
tailor Bassballs' sound to the output level of a particular instrument.
The USA-made Bassballs is housed in the original style steel chassis and
comes packaged in a distinctive pine box. The USA-made Bassballs is
available now at leading music stores around the world and at www.ehx.com. Suggested retail price, $130.00. For more information, visit their web site at www.ehx.com. |
