(Click for a close-up)

The Blue Thunder bass preamp from Rocktron is a digital preamp specifically designed and voiced for bass as both a live and studio tool. Pre-Loaded with 128 presets custom designed for bass, a Selectable Hi-Pass Effects Filter allows you to determine the frequency range being passed through the digital effects.

Built-in distortion designed specifically for bass can be added to a dry bass signal and effect path independently as desired. The Blue Thunder's bass effects include flanger, phaser and tremolo, plus Rocktron's Dynamic Compression, multi-voiced delay and chorus. Rocktron's SIMbiotic 4-Band Parametric EQ with 2 bands of full Parametric EQ is included as a tool for tonal shaping. Speaker Exciter with Sonic Clarity and Sonic Boom controls provide a new dimension of tone for live sound along with Cabinet Simulator for direct recording and direct connection to a PA System.

Rocktron's Signal Routing provides a choice between an analog direct feed, or full effects routing. Separate input and output Level controls on the Blue Thunder accomodate all kinds of basses with active and passive pickups. Suggested list price is $499.00.
