The Providence Brick Drive BDI-1 is a bass preamp pedal designed to deliver high-quality sound and versatile functionality. Here are the technical specifications and features:
- Employs Vitalizer B circuit in the input section, which converts high
impedance signals to low impedance signals, minimizing degradation of sound
quality and delivering natural, faithful instrument sound.
- The Vitalizer B circuit tightens up the bottom end, providing more vivid
and clear sound compared to other processors and effects.
- Internal operating voltage boosted to 21V for increased dynamic range and
low noise.
- Mix control allows blending of drive sound and clean sound through the
preamp EQ, adding nuance to the overdriven sound.
- EQ section based on the Dual Bass Station's circuit, featuring controls for
Treble, Mid, Bass, and Presence for precise tone shaping.
- Loaded with a balanced XLR DI out for flexibility in both live and
recording environments, with a ground lift switch to prevent ground loop
noise.
- Bypass/Mute switch for selecting the mode when the pedal is bypassed,
offering direct sound bypassing the Vitalizer B circuit or mute mode for
instrument switching or tuning.
- Controls: CLEAN LEVEL, DRIVE LEVEL, MIX, DRIVE GAIN, BASS, MID, MID FREQ,
TREBLE, PRESENCE, BYPASS/MUTE MODE SW, BYPASS/MUTE-OFF SW, CLEAN-DRIVE SW, GND
