You almost can&#8217;t tell it&#8217;s on the bass at all, but the bass gets tightened up and thickened in the best way possible.<\/p>\n<p>Hear the NEW Waves Abbey Road RS124 compressor IN ACTION in the video below.<\/p>\n<p>I show you some KILLER settings for drums and bass guitar and walk you through ALL the features (including my favorite hidden one!).
