The TranZformer LX is a multifunction pedal that is designed to easily and affordably bring the world-famous analog sound of API to your bass. Offering the user an unsurpassed level of sonic control, the TranZformer LX combines an API 525 feedback-type compressor with a bass-optimized 3 band equalizer, both independently in/out switchable. The unit also features phase invert switches on each output, ground lift, clip indicator, transformer output and a hard wire bypass switch. Like all API products, the TranZformer LX is built to API’s exacting standards and remains true to the design philosophy that has made API the leader in professional analog gear for nearly 50 years.
