DESCRIPTION:
| Clear and solid bass sound thanks to 96
kHz sampling |
|
The sonic
frequencies generated by an electric bass are about 40 to 600 Hz,
but harmonics go all the way up to the ultrasonic frequency range.
The ZOOM B1 offers ultra-high resolution signal processing with 24
bit/96 kHz sampling, rivaling the best rack-mount processors. The
dynamic, wide-range bass signal retains its full impact resulting
in clear, powerful tone that retains a distinct
presence. |

ZFX-3 -- the
new-generation 32-bit DSP |
|
The heart of any
multi-effect device is its processor and decoder section. ZOOM
elevates performance to the next level with its newly developed
ZFX-3 chip. Its 32-bit architecture means outstanding performance
and smooth, detailed signal processing. Fine nuances of fingering
and touch come through without any deterioration. |

13 different bass
amp and stomp box modeling choices |
|
Whether you want
the massive sonic push of an all-tube amp, the sweet and mellow
tone of a vintage model for melodic phrasing or the sound of a
high-power wide-range modern amp, the choice is yours. There are
seven bass amp settings that range from Rock and Pop to Fusion and
Jazz. Plus, five unique distortion pedal sounds as well as a tube
preamp for adding warmth are also available, letting you create
exactly the bass sound that you want. Freely adjust the mix between
drive sound and original sound to create deep distortion for real
punch. |

46 dedicated bass
effects |
|
Eight modules
designed for bass guitar offer a total of 46 effects. A
limiter/compressor lets you control peaks and ensure that levels
are matched, while the three-band equalizer makes it easy to taylor
your sound further. Auto wah is indispensable for playing that
funky sound, and the octaver impressively enhances the low range. A
defret effect gives you the special tone of a fretless bass. Detune
produces a chorus effect with moderate amounts of modulation. Other
studio-class effects include a long delay with settings to 5000 ms
and a harmonized pitch shifter. |

Bass
synthesizer |
|
The built-in
full-fledged bass synthesizer uses an internal DSP sound source
with triggered operation. Select one of three waveform settings
(sawtooth, square, PWM) and create deep, punchy bass synth
lines. |
|

40 preset patches
reproduce the sound of the pros |
|
The unit comes
preprogrammed with settings for duplicating well-known amps and
stomp boxes, settings that are modeled on the signature sound of
famous rock bass players, as well as totally original ZOOM effect
sound creations. Right out of the box, you can enjoy
professional-quality bass guitar sound. And to store your own
creative sounds, a user-defined set will store another 40
patches. |

User friendly
interface |
|
Editing an effect
is as simple as choosing the patch with the selector knob and
adjusting the parameter with the value knob. Let your imagination
roam without being hampered by complicated controls. |

Integrated drum
machine with PCM sound sources |
|
Realistic drum
sounds derived from PCM sources are arranged in a variety of rhythm
patterns for different musical genres. The 40 rhythm variations
include the steady 8-beat of Rock and Pop, a funky 16-beat, "Jazzy"
4-beat, and many more choices. Rhythm training on your bass guitar
has never been more convenient. A tap key is provided for easy
direct tempo input. |

Built-in
auto-chromatic tuner for bass |
|
The bass guitar
tuner can be called up instantly. Mute tuning output offers further
convenience. Bright LED indicators make the readout easy to see on
a dark stage. |

Ultra low
noise |
|
A signal-to-noise
ratio of 110 dB and a noise floor of -98 dBm mean that background
noise is virtually eliminated, resulting in clean, transparent
sound. ZOOM's proprietary noise reduction technology (ZNR) is also
built in, to completely shut out unwanted noise during playing
pauses. |

Fits in a gig
bag |
|
The compact size
and weight of the B1 make it ideal for those who want plenty of
effects and great performance without having to carry a lot of
gear. The reinforced plastic body can withstand the rigors of use
on stage and on the road. The stylish looks are also highly
functional with the flush surface able to distribute pressure
evenly. The unit feels great when you pick it up and equally stable
when you use the foot controls. This is the kind of product design
that you can get only from an industry leader like
ZOOM. |
|
|
| ● |
AC/DC allows use just about anywhere |
|
Thanks to its
circuit design optimized for low voltage operation, the unit will
run for 12 hours continuously on a set of four IEC R6 (size AA)
batteries. The AC adaptor (AD-0006) can be plugged in for extended
studio work, whereas on stage you never need to worry about AC
power. |

Expression pedal support adds further
versatility |
|
Connecting an
optional expression pedal (FP02) lets you adjust volume, wah, or
pitch shift in real time. But going beyond conventional pedal
functions, you can also adjust the mixing ratio of direct sound and
drive sound or freely control the modulation rate or other delay
and reverb effect parameters. The B1X model comes with a built-in
expression pedal and a PEDAL ASSIGN key that makes it a snap to
select the function operated by the pedal. |
