Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
The Blue Sparkle Bass Compressor puts detailed compression controls and visual input and gain-reduction metering into a pedal format. Separate attack and release controls let you set the response, while the mix knob blends parallel compression. An external sidechain insert and continuously variable sidechain high-pass filter extend control over the sidechain path. The two-position Tone + Colour circuit adds gentle tonal shaping and harmonic distortion when that extra character is wanted.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Dialing compression with independent attack and release settings while monitoring input and gain reduction.
- Blending parallel compression with the mix control instead of using only the compressed signal.
- Using an external sidechain insert and variable sidechain high-pass filter in a bass setup.
