DI Boxes Part 7: Amplifier Emulation DIs
In March of 2015 I published a video entitled "Stompbox/Pedal DIs" featuring the Sansamp Bass Driver DI, a relatively early solid state emulation of a classic tube bass amplifier. Since then, amp emulation technology has come a long way! In this video I discuss how to deal with this type of DI as a live sound engineer, and cover specific features of the Origin Effects Bassrig '64 Black Panel, one of the best current examples of the type.

Note that this video is not intended to be a full review of this pedal. Rather it is a discussion of how to approach this type of DI as a live sound engineer.
The bass used for all the demos in the video is my 2013 Fender American Standard Precision Bass, strung with D'Addario Chromes flatwound strings. The bass was plugged directly into the Origin Effects '64 Black Panel. The DI OUT and AMP OUT connectors of the pedal were connected to a Tascam DR-100mkIII recorder. The audio was synched in post, the output being recorded is indicated on the screen during the various demo segments.
Many thanks to my friend and fellow musician H.C. Hiew for the loan of the DI box featured in the video.
Erratum: At 29:40 the on-screen annotation says "of of control"; this should read "out of control". Apologies for the error.
