The ultra-fat yet articulate bass sounds of your favorite recordings can be a challenge to replicate live. Sculpted studio sounds owe a good chunk of their essence to outboard compressors — rackmounted units that typically carry hefty price tags. The boutique builders at Origin Effects place comparable studio-grade compression at your feet with the pedalboard-friendly Cali76 Bass compressor pedal! Based on an iconic FET compressor and freshly re-tooled for greater headroom, the Cali76 offers comprehensive parameters, including Input and Output level controls, Ratio, and Attack/Release. The sidechain highpass filter compresses highs while leaving lower frequencies untouched, an excellent way to tame transients while retaining a thick bottom end. The invaluable Dry blend knob enables you to hit the compressor hard to beef up your mids and add sustain, then fold it under the uncompressed signal to keep your dynamics intact. Moreover, a new front-facing LED meter provides monitoring for the compressor’s performance, even on dark stages, while headroom and sidechain improvements make the Cali76 Bass perfect for active bass pickups, keyboards, and line-level sources. Of course, it’s all built by hand and housed in Origin Effects’ brushed stainless-steel enclosure for rugged durability!

The epitome of utility

The Cali76 Bass compressor pedal is riddled with upgrades and improvements. The differences preserve earlier versions’ all-analog signal path while demonstrating Origin Effects’ lasting commitment to player satisfaction.

• Updated power supply converts incoming 9V power internally to 24V — a significant spike in headroom that empowers players to utilize active pickups, keyboards, and line-level sources
• Improved sidechain signal path aligns performance with previous “large-format” Cali76 units

• Studio-grade FET compressor in a pedal format
• All-analog signal path based on a quintessential studio compressor/limiter
• Optimized bass guitar controls, including a sidechain highpass filter
• Detailed control parameters fuel infinite utility and tonal range
• Dry blend control lets users employ parallel compression with studio-like results
• Durable hand-polished stainless-steel enclosure fitted with ultra-high impedance jacks
• Assembled by hand and individually inspected
• New 10-LED meter graph for monitoring, plus performance and headroom upgrades
• Also suitable for keyboards and line-level signals
