Electronic Audio Experiments & Obstructures OxEAE Bass Driver Pedal

The Obstructures x EAE Bass Driver completes a trifecta of neo-brutalist gain devices executed with precision and brawn. Built upon an homage to a beloved vintage Canadian bass amplifier, the Bass Driver delivers solid state noise rock thunder with key augmentations for the modern bassist.

With a gain control spanning a 50dB range, the Bass Driver can be restrained or rowdy. The tone controls are designed to emphasize the natural attack of a picked bass while also provisioning for down-tuned modernism. Critically, it achieves deep low frequency extension without the unnatural, disconnected feel of a traditional clean blend. In addition we included an internally switchable notch filter, useful for tailoring the midrange response to work either in front of an amplifier or as a dedicated preamp with a power amp or DI.

Controls:


  • Volume - overall volume level, capable of extremely high output
  • Drive - signal gain, from clean to moderate to extreme. Approximately 50dB maximum passband gain.
  • Bass - post-clipping low frequency shelf boost, up to +14db at 100Hz and below
  • Attack - adjusts frequencies above 1kHz, tailors the overall clipping response and sharpness of pick attack
  • Notch (internal switch) - use to activate a notch filter centered at 750Hz. Disabled by default, but can be useful for ampless setups or when running direct into a power amp.  


Specifications:


  • Power: 9V DC, center negative, <65mA current at idle. We recommend a regulated, isolated power supply rated for 200 mA minimum. The PSU input is protected against reverse polarity and over-voltage. Our pedals do not accept batteries.  
  • Bypass: buffered bypass with soft- touch relay switching
  • Input impedance at 1kHz: 2.2MΩ 
  • Output impedance at 1kHz: <1kΩ  

  • Dimensions: 6.75ˮ x 3ˮ x 2ˮ
  • Weight: 1.5 lbs
