Features

High End Preamp

Do not let the size fool you, this compact pedal offers you a high end bass preamp with a discrete JFET-input stage and a studio standard dynamic range of 100 dB. 15 dB of gain and boost allow you to use the Basswitch Clean Boost as a stand-alone booster, as a second channel of the Basswitch IQ DI or as a compact stand-alone preamp in front of a power amp, an active monitor or bass cab.

 

Powerful EQ section

The 3-band EQ of the Basswitch Clean Boost has the feel of a mixing console channel to it and allows a strong bending of the basic signal. It consigns a wonderfully tidy soundscape and your instrument will receive a new sonic shine without altering the characteristic sound of your instrument. Additionally the treble control combines a passive high frequencies reduction with an active high frequency boost.

Lehle footswitch on board

The Basswitch Clean Boost is equipped with a high quality Lehle footswitch. An actuator button activates a pushbutton via a metal lever and the load exerted by the foot is absorbed by the actuator button and the housing, preserving the circuit board from mechanical stress. Inside the Basswitch Clean Boost the impulse from the pushbutton activates special gold plated relays via discrete logic circuitry guaranteeing signal loss free switching of very sensitive signals. The switching technology in the Basswitch Clean Boost is designed to operate for up to two million switching cycles!

 

Lehle True Sound Technology inside

Lehle True Sound Technology combines a series of electrical design measures to insure an optimal treatment of the electrical signal of the instrument. The supplied voltage is rectified, filtered, stabilized and brought to 18V. This allows for sufficient headroom even when confronted with strong pickup power peaks. The Lehle buffers effortlessly handle signals reaching the megahertz range. At the output, the frequency bandwidth is limited to the audible frequency range to prevent HF interference. The Lehle True Sound Technology is a key element to the outstanding sonic performance of our products.
