Good Points If you're recording a guitar, or bass this baby is unbelievable sounding. Many pro bassist, and guitarist use this unit, and many more engineers have this in their rack. It's simply the best active DI you can get. Bad Points Price. This unit is very costly and it's price isn't very friendly to the hobbyist. If you can afford it though your ears will love you for many years to come. |
