Going on close to a decade with my original bass driver DI. What a monster of a tool that thing is! I have RPM rack as well, love that!!! I take the RPM into the studio a lot, but I also like it in the FX loop on my 90s Trace rig, it’s a beast! - also, YY Not rules!

@Metalbass1979 Год назад

I'm still using my original Sansamp Bass Driver from around 1998. It has seen countless live shows with me over the years and saved the day more than once when I had an amp fry on stage. (I even quickly handed it to a guy from an opening band once when his amp fried. He was back up and running and the show saved in less than 2 minutes.)

@57precision Год назад

Awesome demos. Great audio, and Tim's playing is impeccable as always.

@jasondoe2596 Год назад

The ParaDriver is the least known of the three, but I'm very happy with mine. Thanks for the video, great tones throughout!

@slimbeaux Год назад

Thanks for the review. Loved the way that you covered the different settings on all three. Mostly what I am trying to do is get rid of string noise and sounds like the Fat Tube amp setting is the way to go. Thanks again.

@thenlec Год назад

Great video! I DO have more than one, a BDDI V1 that I think I got in the 1990's, and most recently a YYZ. Well built, awesome sounding gear. There are a LOT of tones to be extracted from these pedals so don't be afraid to experiment. Tim gave some great examples in the video.

@marcelb7259 Год назад

Me and my brother have been using the Sansamp Classic since 1995. Since I play bass and guitar, I upgraded to a Sansamp Paradriver v2. It is by far the best preamp I have ever have. I use it through an SWR 2004 and a custom cab and it does wonders. Big cheers to you guys from Canada.

@hope_canyon 10 месяцев назад

I've had a para driver since 2011ish - it's never failed me. I find it to be a whole lot more useful than the bass driver cause it has a mid control, and I've ended up putting it in front of a whole heap of things - vocals, synth, field recordings, samples, you name it. You can do everything with it, and you can get a whole heap of things sitting in their own midrange frequency really easily. Been looking for a video like this to understand the other two, much appreciated!

I’ve used a Sansamp as my main sound for almost twenty years and currently use the Para Driver. I think a lot of bassist think if something isn’t only for bass then it isn’t any good but that one does everything the Bass DI does plus it has the adjustable mids.

@Gk2003m Год назад

I use a V1 in the effects loop. My Hartke amp has plenty of character and tone shaping in the front end, with tube and SS input drive along with 10 band EQ and lo-hi pass filters. But what all the great old tube amps did was to drive the power amp section too! So I have the SansAmp at the end of my effects chain, right into the Return. It puts just a hint of edge on the power amp.

@1thess523 Год назад

I used to use the VT with my Hartke LH500 head and it sounded really nice with a clean tone but I wanted some grit but that VT pedal had a messed up gain knob so I got rid of it. The LH head is a good pedal platform because the on board eq is so basic you get all the character from the pedal, and if you have a fresh 12ax7 in the head it adds a nice tinge of tube warmth

Bass Driver DI is my go-to

@1thess523 Год назад

The Sansamp DI was my first introduction to the bass preamp world, in the 90's when I was actively playing in the skate and pop punk scene we went direct on bass and guitar but one day the bass guy at Sam Ash said "hey have you used a Sansamp?". I didn't know what he was talking about so he went and grabbed one and plugged it into an Ampeg 1x15 combo and when he kicked it on it was like 🤯🤯🤯🤯". I did have the VT pedal for a bit but that gain knob was messed up so I got rid of it, I use an MXR Bass DI which sounds good but the sansamp just has this thickness and growl that I can't get with my MXR.

@wolfgangsaller5843 Год назад

@cliffords2315 7 месяцев назад

@maxthub 5 месяцев назад

I use two of them in parallel. My og 20+ year old bass driver set to a deep fundamental tone. I run out of the parallel out to a Vt deluxe set with more highs, cut bass, and slight break up. Send both xlr outs to foh. I also have a paradriver which is perfect for my upright or Kala ubass.

@bazzhed Месяц назад

Ive been a user of the 3 ch programmable for about 6 years now. Without fail, in very room I've played that had a house engineer, the engineer told me i had the best bass tone of any player he can remember. When they ask what my effect chain is. I simply say. Sadowsky-tuner-sansamp-board. No amp. Nothing else. Sadowsky+sansamp=money.

Tim, do you use the SansAmp with an amplifier or straight DI into the PA? I used mine last year at an outdoor festival when I blew my GK head and plugged my bass into the SansAmp directly into the PA and it saved our gig.

@TimStarace Год назад

I use my SansAmp Paradriver into an SVT and direct to FOH. The SVT is basically for me to have some “rumble” onstage and to benefit the folks in the first few rows. Otherwise the SansAmp direct to FOH is 99.999 percent of my live sound.

@Cake_Doge Год назад

How much difference is there between the all flat characterstics of bass driver and para driver except the cab sim and presence in the bass driver? How different are the circuits and is there drive sound different since one is specifically for bass? Lots of questions there but an explanation would help a lot, I am very curious after this demo.

@Tech21nyc Год назад

Both units are flat response when in bypass mode and function like most DI's. When engaged and the Blend is off and the tone controls are at their null points they are also flat response or can be used as transparent DI's with tone shaping if desired. When the Blend control is turned up, the SansAmp circuit is mixed with the un-effected signal or it can be set for 100% amp emulation. There is some overlap of sounds between the units but both units have their own sonic signature. It's something you need to try with your rig to make the best decision. The Bass Driver is a great choice for players that want that specific tone and the Para Driver has more midrange control and is capable of more overdrive (if desired) but does not have the "sizzle" that the presence control of the Bass Driver has.

@xvii8693 10 месяцев назад

I'm having trouble figuring this out. I have a, sansamp bass driver DI V1, traynor small block 500H Head with a Cab. I can't seem to get any of the sound tones when I plug it in. I'll plug the cable from amp head return effects to pedal output and then pedal input to guitar and then do all the adjustments from there but it just sounds like a regular bass tone whatever I do.

I wish there were a version without DI because I wouldn't place reverb, delay and looper before any of them, of course I could buy a 2nd DI but I hate to have to pay for something that I already have 😁

@Tech21nyc 3 месяца назад

In most bass guitar applications, the bass guitar is DI'd which was why the Bass Driver DI was originally developed and why it has been such a popular product for us the last 30 years. To remove the DI feature would not make sense from a manufacturing level. Most bass players run effects in front of their bass amp or DI. If you want to place effects after the Bass Driver DI etc, an inexpensive direct box can easily be utilized. If you need further help please contact our support department. info@tech21nyc.com

@@Tech21nyc No, I mean the VT Bass that doesn't have a DI.

@@dpalaoro The original VT Bass should be able to get close to 0dB but it depends on the input source and the settings. In general we recommend setting the pedal for unity gain. If you need additional help please contact our support department. info@tech21nyc.com

Timmy, have you lost weight, or did you shave the countryside? Hope you're doing well, breaux!

Wow, how does he get all that grit with the drive at noon? Shit, my bddi sounds nothing like this. Videos like this are why I bought one. How it sounds in real life, is why I tossed it. And the fact I can't use my foot to engage some drive

All SansAmps are very interactive and responsive to your playing style/technique. Tim happens to be heavy handed (or, um, rather heavy fingered), so he doesn't have to turn the drive up. If you decide to give us another shot, please contact us directly for advice: info@tech21nyc.com
