I really appreciate how you take your time to calmly use the equipment you review and then give honest feedback on it. All the other bass channels i watch are fun, but often seem like they are trying to sell me things and they are always in such a hurry. Also i like how you keep the bass lines simple, more like something i would actually end up playing at a gig instead of trying to fit in as many licks as you can in 2 mins. Keep up the good work!

As for Flip Top in a box - Tech 21 VT Bass DI gets this job done nicely. I've been using it for over 10 years and it never let me down. I've switched to HX Stomp recently for more in-depth emulations, but VT Bass is still my go to for quick club gigs and studio sessions.

Completely agree with the VT bass DI for a number of reasons. 1. Smaller and lighter for travel and storage. The point of these things is rugged quality and convenience. The SGT-DI, of course, has this as well, but the VT bass is just more compact, and Tech21's design has been road proven for decades. Plus, if you run a pedalboard, its footprint is smaller and saves you real estate. 2. The character control lets you smoothly transition and blend between amp voices rather than fixed switches for greater fine tuning of the part of the sound you use a pedal like this for. Flexible EQ is a huge plus on a preamp, but the character of sound is what people get preamps for, and the VT bass has more flexibility here. 3. PHANTOM POWERED. This may seem like not a big deal, but the number of gigs I've played with terrible wall outlet power or simply not enough outlets to go around is substantial. I had a Darkglass AO Ultra DI that simply would be unusable at certain gigs (through no fault of its own). Phantom power from a board or interface is usually conditioned, so this drastically reduces potential noise and interference, even if the venue's power is poor. The SGT-DI can do plenty of tricks the VT bass can't, like the parametric eq, dual footswitches, and cab emulation features, and those should be lauded. I can absolutely see that winning over people who don't have either one, especially if it's going on a pedalboard with an isolated power supply, but if you have the VT bass or the deluxe version already, it's still a golden option.

As others have noted, a comparison between the Origins Blue Face and this would be great. I'm with you that a single knob compressor isn't anything I'd every use. I'd likely leave this wide open and just use the one already on my board. I'd love to see a version of this without the distortion circuit where it's literally just an amp in a pedal, but that's purely my viewpoint since I already have dedicated OD and Fuzz pedals. At $100 less than the Origin Super Vintage and having cab sim/IR, though? This one has definitely taken a jump in my "I want a new preamp pedal" viewpoint.

@philipconradmusic This SGT-DI has become my primary practice rig and ampless gig rig in the past few months. I'm still not 100% sold on the compressor, though it has its uses. Everything else is basically magical. If it had a tuner, I would literally only need to bring the one thing. OK, and it could be battery operated, but that's just a nitpick. Thanks again for the solid review, it was very helpful. Oh, and I do chain this with my original Sansamp DI, because you really need 2 DIs at any given time just because.

I am excited about the AMPEG SGT DI box.... I have not been able to play it yet.... However, anything that makes a good sounding bass sound better, Im all for it.... I am not into fuzz.... not too much Drive.... I like the option of 4 and 8 speaker cab sound and being able to jump to a single 15 cab sound to be awesome... Ive never needed compression, I simply learned to control my attack on the strings .... being able to change the mid freqs is great as well... I believe listening to one band for 4 hours straight and their ability to sound like different bands is a plus....mid range selection along with the SVT/B15 switch helps in that regard.... I can't wait to try it... as soon as it's in my price range....

For $500, I would have to give the HELIX Stomp a very close evaluation of B15 to other useful toes/features. For recording, there are several B15 plug-ins to use on a DAW. Keep these vids coming!

Ampeg should do a separate B15 and SVT DI boxes all analog if possible. No compression or IR options. Simply mimic the exact same controls of the originals. I bet they would sell for $600 a piece.

I definitely like it more than the SCR DI because of the better overdrive and cab SIM. For me, I could go for this DI just as it is. I wouldn't worry about other cab or microphone options. My current DI is all analog with similar features to this one, but it doesn't have control pedals. With an overdrive pedal I can do just about everything this pedal can do besides the editing software, but I'm not too worried about that anyway. So if I need a replacement or backup going forward this DI is definitely something I would consider. And if Ampeg does release the Fliptop in a box I could go for that too.

Also would be interesting for me if you have a preamp pedal like this which defines your tone and you can record with it DI, what do you suggest in a live situation? I mean for example a small gig with amp. Should I use only the power amp circuit of the amp? Or sould just use a separate power amp (which I assume could be cheaper than a bass head)? What's your take? Thanks!

Update: Bought it and compared to a Sansamp Bass Driver and Sansamp Geddy Lee rack preamp? Virtually noiseless with my Fender Precision loaded with Dimarzio pickups. Sounds great in the DAW with a Boss bass compressor. Really easy to dial in great tones but I probably opt for less colorization in my bass tone. The range of tones available are extreme and range from unusable fuzz to direct to board cleans and everything in between. I don’t use the Ampeg built in compressor because I have the Boss compressor out front and the OC5 in between is a nice change of pace. The best bass DI box I’ve ever tried, the software has never crashed or glitched on me, adding IR’s give it a lot of flexibility. Very good studio upgrade for me…

Cool review, and yes please do more like this. So beneficial! And if you don't mind, I'd like to suggest some additional perspective on such reviews over just the sound. Obviously, the sound quality has to be prioritized; however, I think there are a few additional qualities that many, like myself, will also want to evaluate when shopping for a preamp like this. One being, how suitable is the unit for studio use? My guess is, as many of these spend as much of their life on a studio desk as a pedal board. O was shopping for a preamp pedal not that long ago, but my primary use for the pedal is running it into my interface and DAW, and for that use, there were few choices that offered the design features optimal for that use, and those are connectivity and, well, connectivity. 😁 The one feature that pisses me off the most with the design of most of these pedals is the XLR out being on the side of the pedal. This makes it virtually impossible to organize it on a crowded studio desk without creating or contributing to a cluster fuck of cables. There is no way to situate one cleanly on a desk. My other gripe is that so few of these offer dual XLR outs allowing for the possibility of running both a dry, pre -eq signal simultaneously with the wet signal. It's both the lack of dual, rear mounted XLRs that got this unit bumped from my list. Personally, I think it's a huge oversight by a company like Ampeg to not give more consideration to the various ways one of these pedals might be used and not design accordingly. They should look to Mesa Boogie and EBS for design cues. It's really too bad, because I would have enjoyed having those Ampeg sounds at my fingertips without having to add them later in post.

It would be nice to have just the FlipTop or an SVT pedal considering I already have a decent DI. You should compare it to the Darkglass vintage ultra and the Tech 21 VT bass deluxe.

Interesting pedal! I think the sound is good, but for a company with the production power of Yamaha behind them, I expected it to be a couple hundred dollars cheaper than it is. I think for this pricepoint you can get some really ridiculously good gear. I really want to try one out, but whether it will stay, who knows!

great vid. Too bad I have knobphobia. I look at all the tweakability of this and think I'd just be lost.

Thanks so much Mark! I mostly practice with loops in my DAW or metronome, not a drum machine. Wish I had a good recommendation for you! Thanks for watching ⚡️

I have the Ampeg Scrambler DI. My only beef with that pedal was that it is a battery hog. Now, I am not as serious of a bass player as many others are, as I have never owned or played through an Ampeg bass rig.

is this usable as an audio interface? I suspect not, and haven't dug into the manual, but it just seems too good to be true that it would be a class compliant audio interface as well.

I don’t think so. It does talk to your computer through usb, but I don’t think you could record through it.

I have a Fender Rumble 500 head and a Ampeg 410HLF cab. All i want is an SVT-CL but i dont have the money. Is this a worth getting and running through the fenders effects loop? Or should i wait until i can afford the real thing?
