Description

The Venue DI is an acoustic preamp/EQ/DI that combines a transformer coupled DI output for total elimination of ground loops, an EQ specifically tuned for acoustic instruments, a volume boost footswitch to complement your playing styles, and a highly visible chromatic tuner with a mute/tune foot switch. Besides combining the features from three stomp boxes into one, the Venue DI is arguably the best sounding preamp ever created for acoustic instruments. With its 100% discrete signal path, breakthrough high headroom circuitry, hi-graded semiconductors and exclusive use of audiophile grade film capacitors in the signal path, the Venue is on par with the world’s elite preamps. The Venue is housed in a heavy duty metal enclosure and uses metal shaft potentiometers for superior roadworthiness. Assembled in the USA with 100% quality control testing.
