Very indulgent and noodley, but I've started making use of the WEM Copicat style of valve echo amp I recently bought. The extremes of depth and repeat are the most fun, it's good for that "one of these days" from Floyd's "Meddle" album bass sounds. There is a song we did that I used flange for and it's much better with the echo.
Of course, with the bass being such a rhythmic instrument, it needs a bit of tweaking to get the values right to be used seriously. Otherwise it flubbles all over itself and the beat can disappear. Like I say, an indulgence really but I'm not the type who gets excited by a compressor pedal in my Christmas stocking.
