The Electro-Harmonix Bass9 Bass Machine Pedal is the ultimate solution for guitarists who need to quickly switch between guitar and bass sounds during a performance or recording session. This versatile pedal allows you to transform your electric guitar into a powerful bass, giving you nine different bass voices to choose from. Whether you're recording a quick bass line or adding depth to your live performance, the Bass9 offers an easy way to simulate authentic bass sounds without the need to swap instruments. With its simple controls and diverse range of presets, it’s perfect for both solo acts and bands looking to add more sonic variety to their setup.

Nine Legendary Bass Sounds in One Pedal
The Bass9 is equipped with nine incredible bass presets, each designed to replicate a classic bass guitar sound. From the iconic Precision bass to the bold tones of the Longhorn, to the smooth sounds of Bowed bass and even the futuristic synth-like bass tones, the Bass9 covers it all. A standout preset is the 3:03 setting, which perfectly captures the gritty, squelchy bass tones of the '80s, making it ideal for those looking to inject some retro flavor into their music. These presets give you the flexibility to explore a wide variety of bass tones, all with a single pedal, saving you time and space on your pedalboard.

Tailor Your Tone with Ease
The Electro-Harmonix Bass9 Bass Machine comes with a range of controls that allow you to customize your bass tones to suit your style. The Dry and Effect knobs let you adjust the mix between your dry guitar signal and the processed bass effect. This is perfect for dialing in the perfect balance, whether you want the bass tone to sit perfectly in the mix or stand out more prominently. Additionally, the Control 1 and Control 2 knobs let you shape the sound even further by tweaking key parameters for each of the nine bass voices, giving you total control over your sound.

Perfect for Live Performances and Loopers
If you use a looper or perform solo, the Bass9 is an invaluable tool. You no longer have to worry about switching instruments to lay down a bass line – simply press a button and let the Bass9 transform your guitar into a bass. The pedal’s flexibility makes it perfect for building quick loops or adding bass depth during live performances. With the ability to play bass parts without needing a second instrument, you’ll have more freedom to focus on your performance while still delivering the full, rich sound of a bassist.

Separate Dry and Effect Outputs for Maximum Flexibility
The Bass9 includes two separate outputs – Dry and Effect – allowing you to route your signal through different amps for even more customization. You can send the dry signal to one amp while sending the processed bass effect to another, achieving a fuller, more dynamic sound with multiple sonic layers. This feature is particularly useful for bassists or guitarists looking to create unique soundscapes or those who want to integrate the Bass9 into a more complex pedalboard setup.
