Darkglass Microtubes X Bass Overdrive & Fuzz

The Microtubes X series brings the studio method producers have been using the years to cover the whole bass distortion spectrum: from articulate high gain to punchy mild overdrive, raw and gnarly fuzz and everything in between. You now have absolute control in constructing your vision of what the perfect bass distortion texture, definition, and size should have. Distorting bass has always been a very challenging engineering endeavor: in order to achieve a punchy, and aggressive distortion that is also full and fat-sounding you need to reconcile two contradicting conditions:The tightness comes from attenuating bass frequencies before saturation, which will also result in a very thin signal. But boosting the lows will result in additional, unwanted fuzz.The Microtubes X is our solution to that problem in a very compact form: The signal is split by two variable low-pass and high-pass filters at the very very beginning. The high-passsignal (mostly mids and treble) is distorted using CMOS
