Simple DI with good amp sim?

[1976fenderhead]

I love my M80 but I don't use the distortion in it and could live without the EQ, what I can't live without is the COLOR BUTTON. So just wondering, is there a good DI out there without any of this stuff but with an amp sim as good as the color button? No knobs, nothing, just ins and outs and a button to engage amp sim, and a good amp sim at that!

i doubt that theres such a thing as an amp sim di without knobs because everyone has their own personal preferences and so by making a petal have a set tone / colour then the maker is severely cutting on clients.

Hmmm unless if you're targeting the people that would buy a normal DI (with nothing) and would choose this one instead for the extra 'warmth' button.

I think the best way to get this is to go custom, maybe try SFX or DHA?

There is one DI that is just an amp sim and nothing else, but it's a Beh****r. The red one they do.

Yeah, I which MXR did something like that for bass with the colour button, for a fraction of the price of the M80

To be fair, any decent DI is going to be pretty much the same price as a second hand M80 really.

Yeah, our guitarist has one. We call it the 'hiss' button.
