Great for its price

alnicko 09.02.2021

Long story short (detailed below): if you just want to get started and experiment with a nice overall DI or if you want one but just don't have the cash for a higher priced one, this little guy here can do a great job!

I gave it only 4 stars, because well, it's an entry level DI and of course it can't compete with something more pricey. But the quality you get for the money it's great!

I used it to track electric bass and guitar. The lowest I went was standard B tuning for 5 string bass and drop A for a 7 string guitar. With proper setup of the instruments, the DI did it ways job amazing.

It's not the clearest sounding one, but I've always used short cables, a subtle noise gate before the DI and ran the signal through an expander, compressor and EQ after it. The end result was better than I expected.

As a con, I'd say that by itself it's not crisp enough, but that's something that can be easily fixed.

Simplified DI Box with great tone

Nick C. 18.05.2013

This does what it says on the box. It's a simplified DI box for guitar or bass with just the essential features. There aren't a myriad of buttons which purists may prefer. The tone is warm and clear. The unit is well built and made to last. It even comes with a 5 year warranty!
