The C1020X2 is a two channel, high-grade preamp/EQ and direct out box, designed specifically for Bass guitar. It features a Class-A, discrete amplifier stage, studio grade 3 band EQ, a switchable high pass filter and a balanced Direct Out. The preamp offers plenty of gain, incredible tone, and a variety of tonal control options, allowing bassists to create the perfect sound they need. The two channels can be linked together for a bigger, stronger sound or used separately for tonal variations. The Direct Out lets bassists record and send their signal directly to the mixing board or interface, offering ultra-low noise performance that eliminates the need for any additional DI box.
