Same clean signal you expect from any DI box but with more harmonic content, additionally they almost always have a gain stage to push a hotter signal if you want to. This one specifically has a huge transformer in it as well which helps with the quality of sound. Live I wouldn't recommend it, too subtle, too big and too heavy of a box but in the studio it's that extra piece of magic. I primarily run IEM's so between the bass and a good quality DI there isn't really a lot else in my chain for me to spend money on. 😎 Additionally, now with foamed out Peli case.

Pow_22 Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 Mine has been used loads in lockdown with remote recording and has been a godsend. Like you say, it just adds a little ‘something’ extra - thicker and more musical to my ears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you say, it just adds a little ‘something’ extra - thicker and more musical to my ears This is what I originally wanted and sparked the idea, particularly when a Khan came up for sale recently. That said as a huge Leland Sklar he used a Groove Tubes Di for most of the 00's so it had always been in the back of my mind, you just never see them for sale in the UK I think we're in the same boat, I didn't need a tube di when sessions were held at studios but we're all doing more and more home recording and we need ways of making those £100 interfaces sound better 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
