Which Sansamp BDDI?

No, not the programmable one. Just the simple Bass Driver DI. Earlier ones have one switch, later models 3. Trying to decide which one to keep.

Well my totally unbiased opinion is to keep both and possibly buy a couple more as backups. ;)

The newer version is more versatile in terms of interfacing with different gear. The XLR output on the older unit is always padded down unless you cut the trace to the resistor. You might think they sound different but you can't set the controls in an identical manner to judge because the pots used are all a little different. When we test we use an oscilloscope.
