DI

Guys

Bit of a cheeky post but if you dont ask....

Got a recording date next week and haven't owned or used a DI in aeons.... I won't be able to crank my matamp up too much as it's a home recording jobbie.

Was wondering if anyone would lend me a nice DI for the week if I paid for special delivery back and forth (and obviously cover the cost of the unit if it failed on me) I haven't really got time to sort one out any other way.

I would be happy to pay for the loan or you can have my bluebeard fuzz or wah for the week if anyone would like to try any of them..

Would be happy to try the hartke, aguilar or sansamp or anything nice and effective.

thanks

Tim

you could probably get a cheapie Behringer or something that would do the job for the same price as delivery back and forth. It would then be something worth keeping in the gig bag just in case.

If it's a half decent studio what they'll do is DI you anyway, probably via a good compressor. The engineer will reamp it later when the mixes are being done. I'd lend you my Sans Amp Para Driver but I'm probably going to need it for a low key gig. Sorry mate.

I've never been in a studio that didn't have loads of DIs kicking around. Mind you, I've not been in that many studios :)

I think he means an active DI with EQ though. Studios like a direct signal and reamping these days it seems. They even do it with guitarists, especially in metal bands.
