This Bass DI-Preamp Pedal from MESA is a Feature Rich Pedalboard Solution
The MESA Subway+ Bass DI-Preamp II is a compact, full-featured follow-up to our highly acclaimed “first edition” Subway bass preamp pedals. It combines the features of our original two preamp pedals into a single new model that features a simple, yet expanded feature set that provides all the tone-shaping tools you need (and nothing you don’t) to deliver the sound, feel, and response that has made the Subway Series market leaders in premium bass sound.
Legendary MESA Heritage
Building on the foundation laid by our acclaimed Subway® D-800™, Subway D-800+, and Subway D-350 preamps, this new DI-preamp model combines even more features in a 35% smaller format than the original models. The results deliver world-class MESA bass tone in a small, even more pedalboard-friendly package that’s perfect for home use, studio recording, and touring.
Powerful Features Without Complexity
The Subway+ Bass DI-Preamp II’s musically rich architecture easily adapts to use with active or passive basses with the extended range J-FET preamp, while the Input Mute footswitch lets you mute the outputs for silent tuning. The Deep switch adds additional roundness, while a Bright switch adds bite and sparkle to the top end. Our award-winning variable Hi-Pass filter blocks unwanted headroom-robbing sub-sonic frequencies, allowing precise tuning of the low end to the musical style, ensemble, or venue. Separate Gain, Boost (footswitchable), and Master Volume controls enable you to dial up a wide range of gain profiles from round, warm cleans to mild overdrive and everything in between.
The Variable Voicing control adjusts the overall response from a flatter character to a more vintage curve by modifying levels and frequency response in multiple regions with the turn of a single knob. The fully active 4-band Baxandall EQ features fixed high and low-frequency shelving controls, as well as variable frequency Low Mid and High Mid bands for added surgical shaping of the sound.
Inputs/Outputs for One and All
For practice at home or anywhere, the Subway + Bass DI-Preamp II’s Aux Input and Headphone output jacks let you listen to a media player and your bass simultaneously without disturbing others. The Preamp Output can be used as either a ¼” (6.35mm) TS unbalanced or ¼” (6.35mm) TRS fully balanced output, and provides ample signal level to drive any pro audio amp to the rated output. A full-featured mic-level balanced XLR direct output (DI) with pre/post EQ and ground lift is included, delivering iconic MESA tone to the front-of-house, monitor, or recording audio interface.
With its ideal combination of small size, light weight, and stellar tonal flexibility, the Subway+ Bass DI-Preamp II is a powerful on-the-go tool for great bass tone in sessions, feeding PA and/or backline in small to mid-sized venues, or as a micro-sized “backup amp” to carry in the gig bag for emergencies.
