REDDI Tube DI Mega-thread-III

Steve Yes.. it was first shown as a prototype at the Alleva Coppolo BASSACRE in LA in April.. It is a High Gain REDDI limited Edition. I played if for a while.. It has allot of output..You van drive a poweramp with it.. May be a little thicker sounding too.. But i did not do an AB listen....
I tried it with my Alleva Bass and one of Peters high $$$$ headphone amps. It was very clean sounding... He was working a little more on the input section before he finalized pre production
Also, What is really nice is the New KGB Solid State Keyboard, Guitar Bass DI..
I have the two channel prototype unit... But there is a newer One channel with 3 band EQ too...
 
This is the early version of the REDDI V2 before artwork etc..
Peter also has a Newer version of the 500HR 500 series rack.... So that way you can run a Mic Pre, EQ, and a compressor in one 500 series rack unit. .Much like a channel strip. .ala carte.
I use the 500Hr 2 unit rack for a a-design 500 Gold pre and the BAC500 compressor. two great studio units...

Can you patch the through from channel 1 to the input of channel 2, take the DI from channel one and run the out from channel two to an XLR input equipped bass head like an Acoustic Image? Just curious. I've hesitated in buying one of these as I'd be sending all the good stuff to the FOH and am stuck with the boring stuff into my bass amp.

Do what I do, run REDDI into FOH, thru jack to SVT-CL and 810e or 212AV (smaller gigs). This gives you the very best sound you can get, both FOH and stage...

This has been the thing that keeps me from trying one as well. Although now (aside from occasional fill in gigs) my only gig is at church where we have a great FOH/IEM system and I hear that these are the shizzle for IEM's.
