“Le basswitch est une merveille d’ingéniosité ; le réglage d’impédance, l’EQ avec ses 2 paramétriques en plus des grave/aigu et les 2 boucles d’effets série et parallèle font de ce préampli/DI un outil indispensable et polyvalent qui de plus est compact et robuste.

C’est le préamplificateur basse le plus abouti de tous ceux que j’ai eu l’occasion d’utiliser ; en club ou sur des grosses scènes en tournée, j’utilise le basswitch pour la basse et la contrebasse.”

“Wherever I am playing , whether it be in the studio or live , the Basswitch is either in my gig bag as a stand alone bass preamp and D.I. or on my pedalboard as the control center.
The Lehle switching is totally quiet and the D.I. is very transparent , allowing the sound of the many basses I use to be reproduced without coloration. The boost and eq are an added bonus that becomes a valuable tool especially when using two basses. High end Direct Boxes can cost more than the Basswitch but do not offer the added features. The Basswitch is a must have device for any bassist that uses a pedalboard , plays live or records.”

“The Acoustwitch IQ DI is a preamp for my acoustic that I can trust to give me a pro sound on stage.I was able to dial out a lot of that nasally sound you get from most acoustic guitar pickups with no problem and bring back a lot of the natural sounding overtones lost through the amplification process

With the ML and Mid frequency selector,  I dialed in the presence I was after, rich with harmonic content and enough cutting edge, that my acoustic could cut through the loud sections with the drummer hitting full on.

There are enough well thought-out options on this piece, I dare say, that it would be hard not to find a workable sound.”
