Main bass these days has EMG's in it.

Looks like Radial will be releasing a 500 series unit that should do what Jimmy is asking for if the frequency ranges are right: The Tossover http://mixonline.com/mixline/radial_..._divider_2711/

I have a PZ-DI demo unit on the way to my house for testing and review.

yeesh, $400 for a LPF is a but much, especially for live use.

True, and $750 is a lot for a DI but that's what a REDDI costs (the one Jimmy is using quite happily) so value is certainly subjective.

Look on the bright side, it's also a HPF so it could also take the place of an F-Deck or SPX Thumpinator if the frequency range goes low enough.

I didn't pay $750 for my REDDI, though...got a used one from a buddy cheap

Offers you balanced ins/out from our REDDI to FOH.

That would give you a flat, linear response up till you hit the 5k LPF speaker emulation. I scope-ed my Para Driver over Thanksgiving out of pure boredom, and it is in fact completely flat out to 5k with the tube emu bypassed and the EQs at noon.

This pedal might be a bit overkill for just doing a LPF, but if you happen to have one sitting around, it'll work nicely.

The speaker sim is off when the blend is turned counterclockwise. There is a slight roll off around 7kHz which is there by design to make the EQ more musical (with the SansAmp circuitry off) when boosting and cutting. That roll of is pretty transparent with the controls set to their null point and it won't suffice as a speaker sim if that is what is trying to be accomplished.
