Lr Baggs Para Acoustic Di

The Para DI preamp features a five-band EQ with tunable notch and midrange controls, adjustable gain, and phase inversion. A major advantage of the Para DI over conventional EQs is its proprietary Quasi-Passive EQ circuitry, which is completely transparent and allows you to control the instrument's voicing without sacrificing tonal purity.

The five-band EQ controls include treble, presence, and bass controls, as well as an adjustable notch filter for the midrange and a tunable notch filter designed to address feedback issues. The notch control can also be used as an EQ knob and can clarify a boomy or muddy tone. Slight increases will give a thin-sounding guitar more body and an acoustic sound in the octave range.

The presence control produces sibilance, cymbal sizzle, and brightness. It provides a cut to remove PA horn reverb or a boost to bring life to a dull speaker. To accommodate a wide range of pickups, the Para DI features 24 dB of adjustable gain for optimal performance and lowest noise with a variety of input sources, including low-output pickups. A phase-reverse switch provides increased control over feedback.
