Anyone tried this on bass?
I'm wondering what the result would be...

Behringer ACOUSTIC ADI21

Works great. Good sound, and has sweepable mid control. More useful to me than the Bass DI because of the mid control.
I wish the bass DI had a mid control.
As a matter of fact, I wish they'd put more of their pedals together into one package. Like, the bass DI + 7 band eq + tuner. For, say, $60.

I want the mid control too, but do you really find the drive on it useless? I get a big benefit out of it at our gigs, but I guess it depends on what tone you seek and what kind of music you are playing.
Showdown said:
Yeah, but what does it do to the rest of the tone.
Does it really yield good bass tone?
SBassman4x said:
Yes, it sounds great. I use it to warm up and fatten up my basses, and have used it for electric upright too, where it really shines.
SBassman4x said:
Of course the tone sucks without a mid conrtol.
This is exactly why the SansAmp is one of the most used pedals over the last 10 years by both pro and semi-pro musicians alike.
I recently bought the ADI21 and i have owned the sansamp para driver and the bass driver. obviously the quality of the construction of sansamp is better, but i actually like the adi21 blend better. To my ears it sounds smoother, and less artificial than the sans amp blend to me.
i tried hooking up a 7 band eq in front of the sabddi and i got a lot of hiss and noise as a result.

bass-shy said:That would be great. You should pitch that idea to Behringer and make millions.
Btter yet, pitch it to Boss, make billions and wait for Behringer to copy it and make a cheap alternative!
SBassman4x said:Any chance of you posting some soundclips?
No problem. This is a Lakland Skyline JO4, tone on 0, TI Superalloy strings, through the ADI21 into my Mac.
Showdown said:
Thanks so much.
Would I be pushing my luck if I asked for a similar soundclip direct so that we can compare?

If you insist....
same bass, same settings.

That's an impressive comparison now.

maybe your right. but it could just be my amp too, i run it through a fender frontman 15 watt (beginner pack amp) and i have to put it through the input, i can hardly get it to work with it plugged into the bass. the only knobs that make a difference are the blend and level, but that could just be cause of my amp. when i get my ashdown electric blue i'd want to see how that changes.
well, i just got my BD121 not even a week ago, and if i wanted to order the AD121 my mom would be like double you tee eff is the point didnt you just get one. so nah, maybe i'll get one later, but i dont see the point in buying another behringer DI with a knob the BD dosnt have if i already have my BD
