The ValveDrive DI is a preamp and overdrive pedal designed by EBS for bassists looking to add warmth and distortion to their sound.

With its gain and volume controls, it can transform a solid-state amp into a tube amp, adding body and compression to your tone. It also features a balanced XLR output for direct connection to a mixing console, making it a great choice for live performances or studio recording.

Its low impedance output allows it to be used as a standalone preamp with an external amplifier. The analog circuitry provides a precise frequency response, ideal for retaining low frequencies.

With a rugged construction, true bypass function and standard 9V power supply, the ValveDrive DI is a versatile and reliable tool for professional bassists. It can function as both a DI box and an effects pedal to add character and dynamics to your sound.
