Me refiero a cuando hacía cosas como esta:

Es simple curiosidad, ¿alguien lo sabe?

"Jaco Pastorius used the "Variamp" EQ (equalization) controls on his two Acoustic 360 amplifiers[31] (made by the Acoustic Control Corporation of Van Nuys, California) to boost the midrange frequencies, thus accentuating the natural growling tone of his fretless passive Fender Jazz Bass and roundwound string combination. He also controlled his tone color with a rackmount MXR digital delay unit that fed a second Acoustic amp rig.

At times, he used Hartke cabinets during the final three years of his life because of the bright character of aluminum speaker cones (as opposed to paper speaker cones). These provided a bright, clear sound. He typically used the delay in a chorus-like mode, providing a shimmering stereo doubling effect. He often used the fuzz control built in on the Acoustic 361. For the bass solo "Slang" on Weather Report's live album 8:30 (1979), Pastorius used the MXR digital delay to layer and loop a chordal figure and then soloed over it; the same technique, with a looped bass riff, can be seen during his solo spot on the Joni Mitchell concert video Shadows and Light."

Un MXR digital delay... :P

Gracias, no sé porqué daba por sentado que los delays digitales con funciones de loop eran más modernos, y al recordar estas cosas de Jaco me planteé la pregunta.

Sería Jaco también el primer bajista en usar este tipo de efectos en directo?

Puede que fuese el primer bajista que lo usase. De hecho, seguramente era algo 'caro' para la época. Según:

Brian May, Zappa, etc... lo usaban también cuando salió al mercado.
