MXR M87 Bass Compressor Pedal The MXR M87 Bass Compressor: Studio-Quality Compression for the Stage Transparent Compression with Studio-Level Control The MXR M87 Bass Compressor brings professional studio compression to your pedalboard, offering complete control over your dynamics. With Attack, Release, Ratio, Input, and Output controls, you can dial in anything from subtle peak limiting to tight, squashed compression effects. Whether you need smooth sustain or precise dynamic control, this pedal ensures clarity and balance across all playing styles. CHT™ Constant Headroom Technology for Clear Performance Equipped with MXR's Constant Headroom Technology (CHT™), the M87 provides exceptional headroom and maintains full dynamic range until reaching the compression threshold. This ensures natural and transparent tone, preserving the character of your bass while delivering controlled and even output. Real-Time Gain Reduction Monitoring A 10-LED gain reduction meter provides clear, real-time feedback on how much compression is being applied. This visual indicator allows you to fine-tune your settings quickly, ensuring optimal performance whether on stage or in the studio.

Its compact size-comparable to a Phase 90 pedal-makes it easy to integrate into any pedalboard setup.
