Love this little bass box!! If you're tired of not truly "hearing" yourself on stage, this is for you, especially if you play direct. It gives you every possible tone you're looking for and even provides sample bass tones from well-known bassists in the instructions. The guitar player in my group even said, "I can actually hear you now." Felt great to hear that after months of being unable to hear myself. At home, this little guy really pumps up the sound coming out of my Hartke. All I can say is, I agree with all the positive reviews here. This little box is worth every penny. Thank you, Tech 21 and Sweetwater for brightening my bass player days ahead!! :)

Well, we'd say it's a great alternative to an amp when you run direct, and it can help make a good amp sound great, but it probably won't make a bad-sounding amp sound good. Thanks for watching!

There's no shame in asking questions ) This pedal is a preamp, it means that you can use it with another device called power amp, then you have a complete bass amp. A power amp gives power&watts, a preamp gives a tone.Now this pedal is also a DI ( direct input) it means you can plug the bass on the input of this pedal then you take the output straight to the mixboard, a PA system. now, this pedal can also work as regular stampbox, you can put it in effects loop of your amp to overdrive the sound

This is by far my most favorite bass pedal for punk and rock style music. This thing by itself makes almost any bass sound huge and crisp. But when inline with an amp is where it really shines. Definitely a great pedal for any bass player or project studio engineer to have in their arsenal to help achieve a better bass sound.

My whole rig is an MXR bass compressor and a SansAmp. I've used it in front of many audiences for 16 years and it's always good. I can get pretty close to a real amp tone but only bring my bass and a little bag to a venue... It's convenient, reliable, and sounds good! No lugging an amp around ever!!! Just show up with bass around my back and plug in... Love it.

I use an active bass and the music is some kind metalcore :) The Mesa amp alone produces an incredible sound, but this Bass Driver takes it even further. This thing sounds unbelievable to me when I need a little distorted, compressed, big wall-like metal sound for live shows. I highly recommend this for everybody.

Then you sum them together boom you have a great clear controlled tone

I've just bought a Sansamp V2 so I can dirty up my tone a wee bit. Can't wait to try it out. Even bought a little looper pedal so I can mess around with the sounds.

Hello, Tex! The footswitch on the pedal just turns off the EQ and tone shaping functions, but it will function as a DI box to send your signal out to the soundboard. A DI box turns your high impedance, low level guitar signal into a balanced, line level signal that you can send longer cable lengths, and plug into balanced inputs on a board. Check out this article about the differences between Active and Passive DI boxes, that will help explain some more stuff, too. :) www.sweetwater.com/insync/what-is-the-difference-between-an-active-and-a-passive-di-box/ Thanks for the interest!

this is like the bass equivalent of EMG pickups. Whatever you put into it, it's gonna sound like a sansamp. Good for that specific tone, but it's certainly divisive and kind of anachronistic in a way. I love it but I know plenty of bassists who kind of scoff at it because of how "of the times" it sounds.

Hi squidman97! The SansAmp Bass Driver DI delivers the warmth and presence of a miked bass amp, in a convenient direct box format. Use it as a stompbox, a preamp, or a DI onstage and in the studio, for all the tonal variation you need! It can dial up big vintage tube tones, modern slap sounds, gnarly distortions, and everything in between. Three different outputs allow you to drive power amps, recording consoles, or PA mixers. Bassists, this little black box will change your perception of amp emulators - for the better! Does that help?

Hello, Rodrigo! You shouldn't have any problems using those in conjunction with each other, as long as you don't do anything too wacky with your EQ settings. Coincidentally, I was actually just chatting with another bass player at work today about how he always runs two of his dirt pedals on at the same time. Thanks for the interest!

So if I just bought a Ampeg SVT 7 Pro and the Ampeg 4x10 hlf cab to go with it do I still need to use this pedal if i'm not running it threw a p.a? What would you guy's do? Most shows we have been playing at the p.a sucks to begin with so we just normally end up using our own amps etc etc.

So I'm new to bass. Laugh at me for asking this if you'd like. Not sure if it's completely ridiculous or not, but would I plug this into my bass head? Does this act AS the bass head/amp? Or is this something to plug into a computer for recording?

Well, I know I'm 4 years late, but just in case I'll answer. The answer is... yes, to all of those, depending on how you use it. You can use it like an effect pedal before your amp or in the fx loop, you can plug it into the the fx return and replace your amp's preamp with the sansamp, and you can use the xlr output to record or when playing live.

Hello! In a way, yes. Hence the name "sans amp," like as in "without an amp." It's meant to mimic the way your bass sounds running through an amp, and provide a DI signal out to the FoH, or to your recording interface. Thanks for the interest!

Hello! You can run your bass through this and then into your amp, and also use it as a DI box to go out to a board, or into a recording interface. Thanks for the interest! Kevin Spunde, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 1732, Kevin_Spunde@Sweetwater.com

Hey there! Thanks for hitting me up about this. This DI is also an active preamp as well, with tone control and blend. It must be powered with 9volt battery, wall power, or through 48v from your mixer. Mickey Cushing, Sweetwater Sales Engineer, (800) 222-4700 ext. 3024, Mickey_Cushing@Sweetwater.com

This video rules. This should be just as viral as anything else, except not some depressing, sucky, angry talking point for American politics,..no, no, NO. This is just about a sans amp, and how you can comb your sound in like a street car driver at night, never looking to get pulled over, but always wanting to...how you say?...rock??

Absolutely, just set all the EQ on the amp to as flat as possible (probably 12 o'clock) and use the pedal as a preamp - for the first time, start with the amp volume set low until you know what to expect. If possible, spend a bit more and get the programmable version: then you can easily switch between your favorite sounds without having your amp right next to you. I have one and it has really transformed the sound from my amp ( Phil Jones Bass Cub). It makes me want to play more.
