here at Just Pedals we love this MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe Effects Pedal.
Using analogue bucket brigade circuitry, the MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe represents the ultimate bass chorus. Featuring on board tone controls, a Flanger mode, intensity, rate and width controls, the MXR Bass Chorus deluxe has a secret weapon – the Crossover feature – which filters modulations below 100Hz so higher register notes can be affected by modulation whilst lower register notes remain in tune.
Key features
- Analog bucket-brigade technology
- Separate Bass and Treble controls
- Flanger and X-Over for added tonal flexibility
Here’s what MXR say about the Bass Chorus Deluxe
The MXR Bass Chorus Deluxe is powered by pure analog bucket-brigade technology, serving up shimmering, liquid chorus and swooshing, metallic flanger effects while preserving the punch and fundamental of your low end.
The Bass Chorus Deluxe features top-mounted Flanger and X-Over buttons with LED status indicators. In X-Over Mode, modulation in low frequencies is decreased at 100Hz—perfect for playing upper register chords, melodies and fills while keeping the low end in tune. With Bass and Treble controls you can cut or boost lows and highs and shape the tonal character of the effect. For a wide stereo sound, select the TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) Stereo Hardwire Bypass Mode via an internal switch. In this mode, you can use a TRS to TS (tip-sleeve) Y-splitter cable to send the effect signal to two different amplifiers, allowing the modulation to move from left to right.
The Bass Chorus Deluxe joins the ranks of award-winning pedals in the MXR Bass Innovations line, each designed by bass players for bass players.

MXR is a renowned American effects pedal brand, founded in 1972, that has earned a reputation for its reliable, high-quality products with a focus on simplicity and performance. Known for their iconic compact designs, MXR pedals have become staples on pedalboards across genres. Popular models like the Phase 90, Dyna Comp, and Distortion+ have been integral to the sounds of rock, punk, and beyond. With a commitment to durability and tone, MXR continues to innovate, offering a wide range of pedals, from overdrives and delays to modulation and loopers.
Bass
In the realm of guitar effects, “bass” pedals are designed specifically for bass guitars, enhancing their low-end frequencies and allowing bassists to shape their tone and explore new sonic possibilities. These pedals cater to the unique characteristics of the bass guitar and provide various effects to modify its sound. For instance, overdrive and distortion pedals add gain and saturation, giving the bass a gritty or distorted tone. Compression pedals help even out dynamics by smoothing out the volume of loud and soft notes, resulting in a consistent and punchy sound. EQ pedals enable bassists to sculpt their tone by boosting or cutting specific frequencies, allowing them to emphasize certain parts of the sound or compensate for room acoustics.
Other popular bass effects include envelope filters, which produce dynamic filter sweeps in response to playing dynamics, adding rhythmic groove to bass lines. Octave pedals generate harmonies one or two octaves below the original note, creating a fuller and more powerful sound. Modulation effects like chorus, flanger, and phaser add depth and movement by modulating the pitch or phase, creating swirling textures and enhancing the overall presence of the bass line. Lastly, delay and reverb pedals introduce ambience and spatial depth, adding echoes and reflections that enhance the sense of space in music. These diverse effects allow bassists to expand their sonic palette and express their creativity in numerous ways.
Chorus
Chorus is an effect that creates the illusion of multiple instruments or voices playing in unison by subtly duplicating the original signal and then detuning and delaying it slightly. This results in a shimmering, lush sound that can make a single instrument appear as if it’s being played by a group. The effect adds depth and movement to the sound, making it more vibrant and full.
Chorus pedals typically have controls for depth (how pronounced the effect is), rate (the speed at which the modulation occurs), and mix (the balance between the dry and affected signal). The effect is widely used in various genres, from rock to pop, and is especially popular for guitarists and bassists seeking a richer, more textured tone. Famous chorus pedals include the Boss CE-1, Electro-Harmonix Electric Mistress, and the MXR Analog Chorus, which are known for their smooth, swirling sounds.
Deluxe
“Deluxe” refers to a premium or enhanced version of a pedal, offering additional features or higher-quality components compared to the standard model. These deluxe versions often include more controls for greater tonal flexibility, extra effects or modes, or improved sound quality. For example, a deluxe reverb pedal might have more reverb settings or additional features like true bypass, providing more options to shape the sound. Essentially, a “Deluxe” version is designed for those looking for extra versatility and refined performance in their gear.
Effects
An effect is a modification applied to the instrument’s sound to alter its tonal characteristics, dynamics, or spatial properties. Effects can be achieved through electronic devices such as pedals, processors, or built-in effects units, and they offer a wide range of sonic possibilities.
Musicians use effects to enhance their sound, create unique textures, and expand the expressive capabilities of their instruments across various musical genres.

Pedal
A pedal is an electronic device that alters the sound of an electric guitar by applying various effects. Pedals are typically connected in a series between the guitar and amplifier, allowing guitarists to switch effects on and off with their feet while playing.
This enables musicians to quickly and easily change their sound, adding versatility and creativity to their performances.
Pedals are essential tools in many musical genres, including rock, blues, jazz, and metal, allowing artists to craft distinctive and dynamic soundscapes.
Once you buy one, you can’t stop and then you have to sell them and buy more.
