Animal Pedals Firewood Acoustic DI Guitar Effects Pedal

The appeal of "unplugged" has taken the world's guitarists to the next level, and the roaring grunge rock band has created a further legend with "unplugged". Acoustic guitars are inseparable for rock guitarists as well as classical and folk.

The Animals Pedal Firewood Acoustic DI is an active DI pedal for electric acoustic guitars that is great for live stages and recordings. Manufactured with analog and discrete circuits, it outputs to mixers and amplifiers without missing delicate expressions.

It's a simple and compact pedal, but it has various functions.
A powerful 3-band active equalizer that can be adjusted to match the characteristics of the song, venue, guitar or power amp, and can be turned on and off with a foot switch, from a warm and balanced tone like a classic nylon string.

Create a variety of acoustic sounds, such as crisp, glittering tones that complement your vocals with an ensemble.
The three equalizers, High, Mid, and Low, strongly adjust the tone in the range of ± 15 dB, centered on 3.5 kHz, 800 Hz, and 180 Hz, respectively. It is effective not only for making sounds, but also as a control that cuts unnecessary bands and suppresses feedback.

The GAIN control, which allows you to add light saturation, adds crisp power and presence to the sound.
Equipped with an effect loop, it is also possible to apply effects such as chorus and delay at the same time when using an acoustic guitar or as a boost pedal.

In addition, it is equipped with a balanced out XLR terminal that can output the guitar directly to the mixer. It can also be driven by phantom power. Power can be supplied from a mixer, etc. even in venues where outlets are insufficient, such as outdoor stages.

In addition, when driven by an adapter, it is also equipped with a DC out that can supply power to the pedals of the effect loop, etc., and is effective in various systems.

The Firewood Acoustic DI is more than just a functional pedal. The high headroom and the sound of the particular circuit output the tone of the guitar itself clearly.

You can dare to create a hard, crisp "electric-acoustic sound", but you can clearly output the warmer and deeper tone of an acoustic guitar. Even on a live stage, you can create a tone that is similar to a microphone recording in the studio.

Specifications

Control

• LEVEL: Adjusts the overall volume.
• LOW: Adjusts low frequencies in the range of ± 15 dB centered on 180 Hz.
• MID: Adjusts the mid range in the range of ± 15 dB around 800 Hz.
• HIGH: Adjusts the high range in the range of ± 15 dB centered on 3.5 kHz.
• GAIN: Adjusts the output level to control the saturation of the entire tone. You can also distort it lightly.

Input / output terminals

• DC9VIN: Connect a standard center minus DC9V adapter.
• DC9VOUT: Power is supplied to the outside when driven by the adapter.
• IN: Input. Connect the cable on the instrument side.
• LOOP: Effect loop. Connect the cable from S (SEND) to the input of the effect in the loop, and R (RETURN) from the
