Sound Pure's Take
The MXR Bass D.I.+ is an all-in-one bass preamp, direct box, and distortion pedal designed to deliver professional tone on stage and in the studio. Featuring dedicated clean and distortion channels, a flexible three-band EQ, and an adjustable noise gate, it offers everything from warm, transparent enhancement to aggressive, growling drive with exceptional clarity. Its built-in balanced XLR output and parallel 1/4" output make it equally at home in live rigs and recording setups, while the intuitive controls allow players to shape their sound without unnecessary complexity. Rugged, versatile, and built for demanding musicians, the Bass D.I.+ has become a trusted staple for bassists seeking powerful, reliable tone shaping.
From MXR Pedals
The Bass D.I.+ features a D.I., separate clean and distortion channels, an array of controls to fine-tune your sound, and a noise gate trigger control to eliminate hum and hiss.
Finally, all the essentials in one tough little box. You need a serious D.I. for playing live and laying down killer tracks. You've got to have a preamp and finely tuned EQ to add punch to your tones. And you definitely can't do without some rich, custom distortion. This one-of-a-kind pedal gives you the whole deal in a bomb-proof enclosure that will survive even the most out of control gigs-and players. Built with the highest quality components, the M-80 can give you everything from warmth and transparency to a volcanic roar, without making you scroll through menu screens or an indecipherable manual. Engage the color switch for some sweet preset EQ, then tweak your tone with three band control. Dial in your ideal distortion with the gain knob and blend just the right amount into your clean signal, then kick it on and off at will. The adjustable noise gate pours on the sustain and cuts out hum and hiss. With XLR and parallel 1/4" outputs and a phantom power switch, you'll never have a problem delivering your choice new tones.
This pedal can be powered by a 9-volt battery, a Dunlop ECB003 9-volt adapter, or the DC Brick™, Iso-Brick™, and Mini Iso-Brick™ power supplies (not included).
