Run-Thru Preview of the SansAmp XB Driver:
The Tech21 SansAmp XB Driver at a glance:
With the SansAmp XB Driver, Tech21 combines the best features of the SansAmp pedals popular with bassists in one housing! In detail, the pedal contains the technology of the Bass Driver DI, the Para Driver DI, the Q\Strip and the dUg Pinnick Ultra Bass, making the SansAmp XB Driver a powerful all-rounder tool for Studio and stage. The pedal comes with a fully analog circuit and is equipped with two channels and 15 controls for intuitive operation. The two channels for Clean and Drive can be controlled independently of each other via a 3-band EQ, while the bi-amp mode, which can be activated via a separate footswitch, mixes both channels. A low-pass filter is applied to the clean channel, while the drive channel is equipped with a high-pass filter, allowing the SansAmp XB Driver to deliver sufficient punch in the low frequencies, while high frequencies can be distorted in a defined manner. The pedal comes with an 18 V power supply included in the scope of delivery.
