The ADI21 is a clever little box for acoustic players on a tight budget. It won't fool anyone into thinking it's a high-end tube amp, but it's surprisingly useful for shaping a piezo pickup's harshness and getting a clean direct signal—perfect for singer-songwriters or anyone needing a basic DI with a touch of warmth.
Product Description
Behringer V-Tone Acoustic ADI21, Analog Modeling PreampNow the coveted "unplugged" sound is super-favorable! You want the naturally warm and present sound of tube amplifiers? The ADI21 is an analog modeling preamp / effect pedal with direct recording output for acoustic guitars.
Its ultra-musical 3-band EQ with tune-able mid-range is ideal for simple feedback suppression and control of hard-sounding piezo pickups. A high input impedance ensures maximum signal repetition and dynamics. You can use the ADI21 either as a direct recording preamp with tubes / microphone simulation or as an active standard DI box. The output is designed as a 6.3 mm mono jack and as a balanced gold-plated XLR connector. A ground lift switch prevents problems with ground loops, the power supply is via a 9 volt battery or a DC adapter (not included).
