Modern sounding preamp/DI

Can anyone recommend a modern sounding, clean preamp/DI pedal?

Playing Dua Lipa, Britney, Arianna Grande, Beyonce, Destinys Child type stuff on a StingRay 5 straight to PA with IEMs.

 

Aguilar Tomehammer? Tech 21 Q strip?

 

Can I get the sound I want from my VTDI?

 

All and any input welcome.

Basswitch is a really clean pre and two bands of semi para mids two fx loops, a boost, two inputs for two bass or you can A/B the preamp on/off transformer in the DI and just a wonderful clean sound. The lows are set low but it’s never muddy or undefined. 
 

I’ve had one for about 10yrs and wouldn’t sell it even though it’s not on my board just now it’s a keeper for me! 
 

I think there was one for sale on the forum quite recently.

Thanks for all the replies folks.
The Eden WTDI looks lush but 15V DC means an extra wall wart, which I could do without.
The Basswitch and EBS MicroBass both look like killer bits of kit, but massive overkill for what I need.
I still kinda want them both.

I've gone for an MXR M81 from this here forum - it seems to have everything I need, nothing I don't and the reviews reckon it does clean pretty well.
If not, it'll be back on marketplace and I'll be back asking for more recommendations.

Cheers all.
