The Zoom B1X FOUR bass multi-effects pedal takes your low end to new heights with over 70 effects and amp models, a looper, a built-in rhythm section, and an expression pedal. It also includes access to Zoom Guitar Lab’s extensive library of downloadable artist patches and effects. Forge your signature sound with more than 70 classic and boutique effects, such as octaver, fuzz, and bass synth. Recreate your onstage tone with nine classic amps and cab combinations, including Fender, Aguilar, Ampeg, and more. Lay down a bass line of up to 30 seconds, and then endlessly overdub your performance to build a dynamic, multi-part arrangement.
Packed with features for the modern bassist
The Zoom B1X FOUR’s onboard drum machine lets you play your bass to 68 different drum patterns in a variety of time signatures, such as 4/4, 3/4, and more. For live performances, two performance modes allow you to switch patches and effects seamlessly. At home or in the studio, put your pedal on the desktop to easily dial in your sounds and settings — the auto save function instantly backs up your patches and level settings as you create them! The B1X FOUR operates on four AA batteries or the optional Zoom AD-16 AC adapter; you can even run your pedal via USB bus power.
