Dual DI mode provides versatile functionality

You can use the multifunction V-Tone Bass Driver DI BDI21 as a recording output DI with tube emulation or as a standard active DI box, with a single stomp of your foot. Your output can be sent to either a 1/4″ TS or a balanced, gold-plated XLR connector. A fully featured active DI, the BDI21 also has a ground lift switch to help you eliminate those frustrating ground loop hum issues.

Class-D technology puts massive sound in a small package

Because of Behringer’s revolutionary Class-D amplifier technology, the V-Tone Bass Driver DI BDI21 can put the authentic sound of a vintage tube amp in an ultra-compact package that fits on your pedalboard. By eliminating the need for heavy power supplies and massive heat sinks, Class-D amplification provides you with enormous power and incredible sonic performance, without busting your back. Class-D amplification is also highly energy efficient, so the BDI21 can keep rocking all night without breaking a sweat.

Behringer – a brief history

Uli Behringer showed an interest in music technology design at a young age, building his own synthesizer by the age of 16. In 1982, Uli began studying sound engineering and classical piano at the Robert Schumann conservatory in Dusseldorf, Germany. Uli’s defining moment came when he was repairing a signal processor made by a high-end manufacturer. Despite the processor’s expensive price tag, Uli realized that its internal components could be bought for a fraction of the cost. Being a strapped-for-cash student, Uli began building his own signal processors. Before he knew it, other students began requesting equipment from him. In 1989, after being bombarded with more orders than he could handle by himself, Uli created Behringer, Inc.
