Sansamp Bass Driver DI Ver 2

Not just your average direct box, the SansAmp Bass Driver DI packs a punch with versatile vintage tube tones, modern slaps, gritty distortions, and everything in between. With three outputs for powering amps, recording desks, PA mixers, or sprucing up your current rig. The controls feature Presence for definition and upper harmonics, Blend to balance direct signal and SansAmp circuitry, and active bass EQ with 12dB of boost or cut.

VERSION 2
With 5- and 6-string basses becoming more popular than ever, we've got you covered with a frequency switch to reach those extra low notes. But wait, there's more! We've also included a mid-range control and a switch to fine-tune its frequency. Plus, the SansAmp Bass Driver stays true to its original design for that classic sound.

BUILT-IN SPEAKER/CAB SIM: Experience the 100% analog SansAmp Bass Driver D.I Version 2, featuring a full signal chain emulation from pre-amp to power amp to speaker simulation. The SansAmp speaker simulation, built into the circuitry, adds a unique flavor to any guitar or bass speaker cabinet system. For an extra kick, add an external IR after the SansAmp. The SansAmp speaker sim is custom-tailored for a smooth, even response, like a multiply-miked cabinet, without any unwanted peaks, valleys, or notches found in single miking or many IRs.

For studio and live applications, SansAmp Bass Driver DI is engineered with three outputs:
• effected XLR
• effected 1/4″
• parallel, uneffected 1/4″

Activate the tube amplifier emulation with the footswitch, but remember to disengage it if you want to use the SansAmp Bass Driver DI as a regular transparent direct box.
