5.3 Denoiser and compressor
DENOISER: A Denoiser is used to remove or minimize noise or other interference
sounds. Such noise becomes particularly apparent during pauses. The time-
proven BEHRINGER denoiser removes or reduces such noise very eectively.
A dynamic low-pass lter eliminates the noise present in the signal, while the
integrated expander supresses noise during pauses. Concerning this dynamic
lter you can adjust frequency range and sensitivity, while the expander adjusts
both the threshold and the time parameter.
The BASS V-AMP/BASS V-AMP PRO’s denoiser can be used independently
from the integrated multi-effects processor. See chapter 2.1 ( ( 8 ) E)
for information about using the denoiser.
COMPRESSOR: A compressor is used to elevate low-level signals, whereas loud
parts are lowered if needed.
Letting the compressor kick in strongly (done by turning the EFFECTS control
clockwise) tightens the entire dynamic of the signal. This dynamic eect is the
one that is most used in a connection with an electric bass. On the other hand,
alimiter cuts o the signal above a set threshold to prevent distortion.
BASS V-AMP/BASS V-AMP PRO’s compressor can always be activated
independently from the integrated multi-effects processor.
6. Eects Processor
The integrated multi-eects processor is a distinctive feature of your
BASSV-AMP/BASS V-AMP PRO. This eects module oers you 16 dierent
groups of rst-class eects, such as chorus, anger, stereo delay, rotary cab.,
synth as well as various combination eects. Additionally, you can use an extra
wah wah eect via the MIDI function. This can be optimized by using a MIDI
foot controller with an expression pedal, for example the BEHRINGER MIDI FOOT
CONTROLLERFCB1010.
The multi-effects processor functions basically in stereo. This way,
you can use stereo effects for recording purposes via the LINE OUT on
the BASS V-AMP or via the ANALOG LINE OUTPUT on the BASS V-AMP
PRO. You can also use a second amp to play in stereo (also see table 3.1).
The eects can be edited in three parameters:
1. By rotating the EFFECTS control.
2. By rotating the EFFECTS control while the TAP key is pressed.
3. By pressing the TAP key in the beat of a music piece. Table 6.1 shows the
eects parameters of your BASS V-AMP/BASS V-AMP PRO.
To adapt beat-based effects to your musical program, press the TAP key
twice in the beat of the music.

MIDI WAH: The legendary wah wah was primarlily made famous by Jimi Hedrix.
Explaining it would be surely more dicult than simply telling you to go listen
Hendrix’ Voodoo Chile. When the DRIVE function is activated, turning the EFFECTS
control sets the wah wah. The LED circle around the control displays the position
of the pedal. When no LED is on, the MIDI wah wah is not active.
P-FUNK’N: This is our attempt at replicating the legendary MuTron III, and we
succeeded! The MuTron III was a mixture out of Auto wah wah and lter eect.
The most famous user of this eect is probably Bootsy Collins. The MuTron III had
an up/down switch. Here, the eect resembles the MuTron in the down position.
AUTO WAH: The American funk in the ’70s proved that auto wah had many
possible applications. Instead of regulating the lter frequency with your foot,
our eect does this automatically, depending on the signal level. In doing so,
oureect is similar to the MuTron III in the up position.
Wah wah is not available when auto wah or P-Funk’n are being used.
