2 channel bass DI
 
Hey all,

I'm looking for a 2 channel bass DI to make switching back and forth from acoustic to electric bass a bit more smooth, for me AND the sound person.
Does anyone have a fave? I hear EBS has a good one, but it's rather expensive..

Thanks

Thanks, those are both great units. The VT seems cool, but does more than I would need (amp modeling). I think something with just a bit of tone shaping would be good.
I really appreciate the input. I play lots but know nothing about gear! :rolleyes:

Are you looking for two different EQ's or just the ability to leave both plugged in and switch with the press of a button?

Well, the more I think about it the more I realize I should have two different EQ's. might have to go with the EBS.

Radial Tonebone does that but the EBS is good too, I expect.

This unit is pretty much king.

What about just a 2 channel bass switcher DI, no EQ function. Mute switch would be great.

The only ones I know of are surprisingly expensive. The less-expensive route is to get an A/B switch box and a separate DI box.

Find a used Rane AP13. It will do electric, acoustic, take mice, has graphic EQ, hi pass filter to kill subsonics etc. Love it and love mine.
