The DG-B2M2 Tone Capsule offers a fresh approach to onboard preamps, designed to respect your bass’s natural tone while significantly increasing its sonic capabilities. The 3-band EQ gives you the ability to precisely adjust the bass, mids, and hi-mids, letting you sculpt your sound for different playing styles or performance environments. Whether you're looking for deep lows or cutting midrange clarity, this preamp delivers with precision.
The Tone Capsule’s 3-band EQ includes dedicated controls for bass, mids, and hi-mids, each offering a range of ±12dB. With bass centred at 70Hz, mids at 500Hz, and hi-mids at 2.8kHz, you can fine-tune the frequencies that matter most to your tone. This gives you the flexibility to dial in everything from a rich low-end to a more aggressive, punchy sound.
The DG-B2M2 operates on either 9V or 18V, allowing you to choose between standard or high-voltage configurations. Using two batteries for 18V operation provides increased headroom and dynamic range, making your bass sound fuller and more responsive. Whether you're using one or two batteries, the Tone Capsule delivers a consistent and reliable performance.
The compact design of the Tone Capsule makes it easy to install in most basses, whether you're upgrading an existing setup or adding a preamp to a new build. With its simple layout and included potentiometers, you can quickly enhance your instrument's versatility without any complicated modifications. The DG-B2M2 is perfect for players looking for an unobtrusive yet powerful tonal upgrade.
