Double Bass New Grace Design MOXI preamp

New “poor man’s Felix” from Grace. Stripped down a bit…wall wart vs. IEC power cord, shared DI, no tuner out, no midrange Q control, fixed 75 Hz HPF on each channel, no impedance switches (1Mohm both channels), no XLR mike input or phantom, no separate amp level control.

$650 pre-order price vs. $1230 for a Felix 2, Sweetwater expects them sometime in July. Full specs and manual not available yet. I may have to overcome my wall wart phobia .

Just looking at the control surfaces they have finally seen the advantage of having a power switch. The HPF looks to be a three position switch vs the
Variable dial on the Felix. Since most players don’t use microphones if you double on EB and DB with a pickup it’s a good alternative.
