Featuring a status LED for effect on/off and battery check, the Behringer Bass Graphic Equalizer BEQ700 can run either on a 9V battery or on AC power. There are decades of bass-playing experience here at Sweetwater. Give us a call, we'll be glad to help you out!

Behringer Bass Graphic Equalizer BEQ700 at a Glance:
  • 7 frequency bands provide extensive tone-shaping options
  • Behringer - a brief history
7 frequency bands provide extensive tone-shaping options

The Behringer Bass Graphic Equalizer BEQ700 covers the audio spectrum from 50Hz to 10kHz. The uber-low frequencies from 50Hz to 100Hz are typically felt more than they are heard. Boosting these lower frequencies can dramatically increase your bass guitar's power and thickness, while cuts can render it weak and anemic. Gentle boosts from around 100Hz to 250Hz can give your bass warmth and body, but beware - boost too much and your tone will slip into the mud! The critical midrange between 400Hz and 1000Hz is where most of your bass's energy and impact lies, due to the human ear's sensitivity to those frequencies. Boosts in this range can help you pop out of a mix, but boost too much and your bass guitar's tone will break like glass! Just some friendly Sweetwater advice: cutting offending frequencies can oftentimes be more effective than boosting non-offending ones.

Behringer - a brief history

Uli Behringer showed an interest in music technology design at a young age, building his own synthesizer by the age of 16. In 1982, Uli began studying sound engineering and classical piano at the Robert Schumann conservatory in Dusseldorf, Germany. Uli's defining moment came when he was repairing a signal processor made by a high-end manufacturer. Despite the processor's expensive price tag, Uli realized that its internal components could be bought for a fraction of the cost. Being a strapped-for-cash student, Uli began building his own signal processors. Before he knew it, other students began requesting equipment from him. In 1989, after being bombarded with more orders than he could handle by himself, Uli created Behringer, Inc.

Berhinger begats bellicose, belching basslines!

I've been playing bass for a long time, homey!On a neverending tonequest, I've been thick as thieves with Berhinger for 15 years or more.I also set up the guitar rig with them.In this case I've set up a pedalboard for bass, with the Berhinger compressor pedal, the Behringer bass equalizer pedal,the Behringer bass overdrive pedal,the Behringer bass driver, and an Arion bass chorus pedal.(I will get the Berhinger bass chorus pedal whenever it becomes available.)The bass equalizer helps me remove some of the unwanted mid frequencies in the 500 range, and boost the treble slightly for a clean,punchy tone.With the compressor,bass driver and equalizer running through a Berhinger 45000 bass head thru my Ampeg 8 tens,my tone is nothing short of amazing! Berhinger is the Robin Hood of effects pedals!

Buy It

You won't regret it. The sound won't blow you away like an effect pedal or anything, but it lets you perfect your tone...and if you get it where you want it and then turn the pedal off it's like playing with gain turned all the way down on the amp was before you got the pedal. I'm addicted to it after a day. It's got an added bonus for 5+ string players, the bottom frequency band sits mostly below my E string so I'm pretty sure it's there to boost/cut those lower strings.

Very impressed!

Wow! So worth it. I almost bought the expensive BOSS version of this, but I didn't. Then I plugged this baby in and WOW. For the price this one is, it is totally worth it. I have noticed that with my cheap 1/4 cables, it hisses, but not with my more expensive gold-tipped cables. To reduce the hiss with my cheap cables all I had to do was turn down the treble of my amp. Does this bother me? Due to the fact that I payed less than $... I could care less about the tiny hiss. It helps me enhance the tone of my passive basses greatly. Hey, for the price it is, BUY ONE! Shout out to Michael Bolton and Chris Moseley for always having my back at Sweetwater.
