Eich T-900 Bass Amp DI Demo

#bassamp #basstone #comparisonvideo

Should I record direct into my interface or via my Amp’s DI out?

This is a video to show what the DI sounds like on the Eich T-900 (when the amp is set completely flat) in comparison to recording direct into the (Steinberg UR-242) recording interface via the HI-Z input. The comparisons both use the exact same performance - no effects/post-processing has been applied to the signals.

Basses:
Sire P5 (with flats)
Sandberg California II TT4 (with rounds)
Lakland Hollowbody 30 (with flats)

Eich T-900:

The ultra-compact T-series amps stand out by their power, punch and drive. You will experience every nuance of your playing in a totally new and distinct way – completely unaltered but with lots of punch, just the way you like it. The well-balanced four-band tone control suits all musical styles with a perfect sound. The “TASTE” control allows you to emphasize the tonal characteristics of your instrument – everything between a wiry mid-boost, a bold slap and an ultra-fat Reggae or Motown sound.

Jacks for FX loop, Tuner Out, Line Out, Line In and a transformer balanced pre/post switchable DI Out with ground lift lets you connect the T-series to the outside world. T-series amps are ideal for travelling around the world thanks to their voltage switch that allows operation at 230 or 115 volts 50 – 60 Hz. Two ultra-quiet, digitally controlled fans and the tuned airflow channel in the T900 keeps the amp cool even at full power.

A great new feature for late night rehearsal is the aux-in jack, where you can connect devices such as your mobile phone, a tablet or other to jam along to your favorite tunes listening with your headphones. You don‘t even have to connect a cabinet. It‘s never been easier.
Thanks to the unique “magnet fix pins“ your T-900 is always safely connected to the amp fixing bar of your EICH cabinet. (The magnet fix pins are not available in the US)
