Radial Bassbone OD 2-Channel Bass Preamp

The Bassbone OD is a bass preamp with two instrument input channels, each of which is fully equipped with a level control, super powerful passive-interactive EQ and a low-frequency filter to help eliminate resonance.

Channel-A is equipped with a PZB booster switch that increases the sensitivity and load to 10 megohms to optimize it for use with piezo transducers as commonly used on upright bass. Channel-B takes a different slant with Drag Control load correction to optimize the tone and feel when using a passive instrument such as a vintage Fender bass.

Toggling between channels is done using a footswitch and both channels may be mixed together by depressing the blend switch, should a dual pickup system be in use. Outputs include an ¼' instrument-level output to feed the artist's on-stage amplifier plus a balanced low-Z Radial DI box output to feed the PA system.

The XLR output can be assigned pre or post-effects to suit the engineer's preference. A separately buffered tuner output works with the mute footswitch for quiet on-stage tuning.
