SansAmp Bass Driver DI ++NEW++

SansAmp Bass Driver DI gives you the warmth, presence and punch of a miked-up bass tube amp system in a conveniently portable direct box/pedal format. SansAmp Bass Driver DI can be used as a pre-amp or stomp box with your existing stage rig. You can drive a power amp and speaker cabinets. Or go direct into the mixer of a recorder or P.A. You can also plug into a power amp or conventional bass amp and a P.A. system simultaneously.

The controls offer a broad range of traditional bass amp sounds, including such meaty styles as Bassman^® and SVT^®, as well as raunchy, crunchy overdriven sounds that would typically require a multitude of effects units.

• PRESENCE controls the amount of definition and upper harmonic content.
• DRIVE adjusts the overall gain structure and overdrive.
• LEVEL regulates the XLR and effected 1/4" output levels.
• BLEND allows you to mix the direct bass signal with SansAmp Tube Amplifier Emulation circuitry (which is particularly useful for basses equipped with piezo pickups).
• BASS & TREBLE are active EQ controls, specifically tuned for bass guitar, that cut or boost +/- 12dB.

For studio and live applications, SansAmp Bass Driver DI is engineered with three outputs: an effected XLR, and effected 1/4", and a parallel, uneffected 1/4". The footswitch activates the Tube Amplifier Emulation circuitry. Disengaging the circuitry enables you to use SansAmp Bass Driver DI as a standard active transparent direct box.

Phantom power operable, or uses optional DC power supply, or 9V alkaline battery (not included).

Actual size: 4.5" x 3.5" x 1.5" / Weight 14 oz.
