With the Tech 21 SansAmp DI-2112 Geddy Lee Signature, the New York bass specialists bring the Rush bassist's signature preamp into a convenient DI box that delivers premium bass tones both as a desktop unit in the recording studio and on the pedalboard. Equipped with separate Deep and Drive channels, the Tech 21 SansAmp DI-2112 stays true to Geddy Lee's signature sound and impresses with juicy bass overdrive, thrusting rich low end and the right amount of compression for nimble finger playing.
The Tech 21 SansAmp DI-2112 Geddy Lee Signature features separate analog preamps for Drive and Deep.
Dual Parallel Pre-Amping
The Tech 21 SansAmp DI-2112 Geddy Lee Signature has two separate internal preamps connected in parallel. Both circuits are completely analog andseparate the drive from the deep section, which allows the DI-2112 to combine RPM-like drive sounds with the solid bass foundation of the deep preamp. The equalizer curve also follows Geddy Lee's sonic preference, but thanks to semi-parametric 3-band EQ with mid-shift control, it can be tuned quite precisely to your own sound preferences. If desired, the Tight switch also tightens up the sound so that each note is presented with increased definition and additional snap.
Connections for every occasion
On the rear panel, the Tech 21 SansAmp DI-2112 Geddy Lee Signature offers extensive connectivity for modern stage and studio environments. Balanced XLR outputs allow the Deep and Drive signals to be routed directly to mixing consoles or audio interfaces, while unbalanced jack outputs allow the preamp to be used with classic amplifiers. In addition, the Tech 21 DI-2112 Geddy Lee Signature provides a tuner connection.
On the back of the Tech 21 DI-2112 are balanced and unbalanced ouputs as well as the connection for tuners.
