Pro-DI
Ashdown Engineering's Pro-DI is a game-changer for bassists seeking a versatile, professional-grade performance tool. Inspired by the brand's renowned ABM, MAG, and ROOTMASTER series, this pedal is built to withstand the rigors of the road while delivering exceptional tone. At the heart of the Pro-DI is a valve-emulated overdrive circuit, complete with drive mix and level controls. This allows you to dial in the perfect amount of grit and gain without compromising your volume, ensuring a powerful, punchy tone that cuts through the mix. The 5-band EQ, complete with Ashdown's iconic Shape option, provides unparalleled tonal sculpting, letting you fine-tune your sound to suit any venue or genre. But the Pro-DI is more than just a killer overdrive – it's also a high-quality DI box, with transformer-isolated outputs for a balanced front-of-house or monitor feed. The input and output adjustments, along with the handy Ashdown VU meter, make it easy to optimize your levels for optimal performance. The pedal's passive and active input sensitivity pads accommodate a wide range of basses, ensuring a perfect match every time. Designed for simplicity and longevity, the Pro-DI features a line input with its own dedicated Line Mix control, perfect for practice or monitoring. And with Ashdown's standard 5-year warranty, this pedal is built to last, reducing your gear load and giving you the confidence to deliver show-stopping performances night after night.
