A DI with a Parallel Out that isn't on the right side

[DaveParker39]

I Want to put a nice DI/preamp on my pedalboard in case we have gigs in which we are using a DI rather than my amp to feed the PA.

I'd also like the ability to send the unaffected signal to my amp while sending the DI/Preamp to the board. This is important becuase I Want to wire my pedalboard so that I can use it with my regular amp as the default (so, a transparent bypass) and also be able to turn on the DI to feed the board while feeding my amp, if that makes sense.

So many of these pedals have the Parallel out on the right which doesn't really work for a small pedalboard, like the one I have.

Are there any good ones where the parallel output is easier to get to in a tight space? I'd like the pedal to have a transparent parallel output but the option to use as a DI if need be, while still passing signal through the parallel output regardless of whether the DI is on or off.

Thoughts?

You may want to look at the Pinstripe LWDI.
It is specifically designed for compact pedalboard use.
Just my $.02 as always.

That looks pretty cool… I guess the only thing it doesn’t have is some sort of preamp/amp sim which I would ideally be looking for.

Are you saying the right side is the wrong side? Then what’s left?

Origin Bassrig?

You could always get your current pedal modded to have this parallel out plug added/relocated. Win-win.

You can always turn the pedal around

It doesn’t have a parallel (clean) output.

DSM Omnicab sim and the DSM Humbolt products are worth looking at.

I understand the issue - I built myself a DI recently, and connectors on a pedalboard can be an issue. My "solution":

Then it's not just a DI. You want a preamp with both XLR and 1/4" outputs.

Cant you just use right angle connectors and not worry about it ??

Yes, that is correct.

With all due respect, do you think I would have posted a thread about this if I hadn't tried? lol. I try to keep a small board, I don't like having a big board and moving crap around on it all the time.

That may be what I end up having to do.

The Caline Wine Celler CP60 has the features that the OP is looking for. I used one last week. The XLR output went to the PA mixer and the 1/4" output went to my amp. It has the output jacks on the left side, too.

The @Sushi Box FX Finally Tube DI has the 1/4 in & out on top, the out is switchable with the xlr on the side and it uses the Lightning Boy transformer.

The Mesa Subway Plus DI is set up exactly how you want. The "tuner output" on the left is an unaffected signal.
