Tech 21 Brings the SansAmp Programmable Bass Driver into the Digital Domain with the ELITE.
Just as the original SansAmp was a personal mission to encapsulate tube amplifier sounds in a compact, portable pedal, inventor Andrew Barta has long been on a quest to do the same in the digital domain. Never one to jump on a bandwagon, Barta wouldn’t “go digital” until he found a way to replicate the dynamics, responsiveness and fluidity of its analog counterpart.
The SansAmp Programmable Bass Driver ELITE has two modes:
Performance mode to have your 3 main presets at the ready and Studio mode for up to 128 locations for custom presets. Controls include Drive, Presence, Blend, Compressor, 3-band active EQ, and Level. There’s an additional “Red” mode that switches the functionality of the controls to include Preamp, Filter, Frequency, Q, Ambiance, Ratio and Chorus. It can also activate pre-programmed Chorus and/or Filter effects.
The MIDI interface enables deep editing of parameters for amplifiers, blendable IRs, effects and EQ. The IR section includes a SansAmp IR, a curated collection of modifiable IRs, the ability to custom blend them, as well as upload your favorite external IRs. Clear, uncomplicated graphics, and intuitive controls provide ease of use to achieve your desired tones.
Other features include a chromatic tuner, effect loop, 1/4-inch and XLR Outputs, and rugged all-metal housing. Utilizes included 9V DC auto-switching power supply with interchangeable international plugs for use anywhere in the world. Measures 7.5”l x 5.25”w x 2.0”h.
