Designed by Bassist for Bass Lovers
We collaborated with American bass player Melvin Lee Davis to create MLD Bass Preamp & DI.

Melvin Lee Davis is an American bass player, vocalist, keyboard player, producer, TV composer and engineer based in Orange County, California. He is the music director for Grammy-award winning artist Chaka Khan and has recorded with The Pointer Sisters, Lee Ritenour, Bryan Ferry, Patti Austin and Gladys Knight & the Pips

Volume Knob
Adjusts the overall output volume of the pedal. Ideal for fine-tuning the output on clean tone, it also controls the DI output volume.

Blend Knob
Adjusts to blend between the clean signal and overdrive signal. The clean signal remains as unity gain, allowing for fine control of the blend ration.

Drive Knob
Adjusts the Gain level and sets the saturation level in the overdriven signal.

3-Band Equalizer with Middle Frequency Selector:

• Bass: + – 12dB @40Hz
• Middle: + – 17dB @160Hz to 1000Hz
• Freq.: 160Hz ~ 1000Hz
• Treble: + – 12dB @8000Hz

  DI Output
  Balanced XLR Output carrying the mic-level output signal, either affected or unaffected depending on the Pre-Post switch.

  GND LFT (Ground Lift) Toggle Switch
  Disconnects the signal ground on the DI out to break any ground loops. Toggle the switch to the LESS noisy position; it can be either GND or LFT depending on the room, stage or studio condition. Switch does not effect the 1 4-inch (6.5mm) output.

  Impulse Response (IR) Toggle Switches
  You can activate deactivate the IR cabinet simulation for both DI out and 1 4-inch (6.5mm) out separately. Use the appropriate IR toggle switch to turn ON OFF the emulation for the output you choose.

  

  Main OUT and Through
  You can use the main OUT and THROUGH output to get the dry signal for bass amplifier connection.

  When you activate the OUT IR cabinet simulation, you can connect the pedal to any FRFR speaker, directly to a mixer or audio interface. THROUGH output will remain bypassed either the OUT IR is activated or deactivated.

  

  DI Out, Auxiliary Input and Headphone Output
  On the LEFT SIDE of the PEDAL, you can access the XLR output for a mixer and or audio interface connection, and you have the option of activating the IR cabinet simulation.

  There is a 1 8-inch (3.5mm) auxiliary input to connect a music player, and headphones output for silent practicing or monitoring (please check the USB connection).

  Headphone output is related to DI out, when you activate the DI IR simulation, headphones output will be simulated.

  

  NUX Bass Preamp + DI Software
  You can connect the pedal to your Windows MAC computer to use the editor software. You can load your own IR files and control various other settings. Supported IR file: 48 kHz 24-bit, 1024 Samples

  Signal Routing
  There are 3 ROUTING OPTIONS for the USB audio streaming:

  • NORMAL: You can create your tone by using the pedal, and it will send the processed signal to the recording software.
  • DRY OUT: You can record your bass guitar without any preamp effect and IR simulation. This option is useful for re-amping.
