Description
Envelope filters can be a gamble on bass — too often they thin out your low end chasing that quacky sweep. The MXR M82 was built to solve that problem, giving you classic analog filter movement while keeping your fundamental intact.
- Independent Dry and Effect knobs let you blend in exactly how much filter you want against your untouched signal, so the funk stays on top without gutting the bottom.
- Decay and Q controls reshape the filter’s character, from short snappy pops to longer vocal-like sweeps.
- The Sensitivity knob adapts the pedal’s response to your playing attack and works whether you’re running passive or active basses.
- Filter sweep runs 76 Hz to 3200 Hz, giving it real reach across the low-mid range where bass envelope tricks actually matter.
Under the hood, MXR built in protection circuitry against over-voltage and polarity mistakes — the kind of thing that matters when you’re plugging and unplugging in a dark club at load-in. True hardwire bypass means the pedal stays out of your way tonally when it’s off, so your dry bass tone comes through untouched.
It all lives in the compact Phase 90-size aluminum housing MXR is known for — tough enough for the road, small enough that it won’t eat up your pedalboard real estate. This bundle also throws in two free 6″ cables so you can get it wired into your chain without digging through your parts bin.
Runs on standard 9V DC power, drawing just 6 mA.
