 For what you pay - amazing. Feb 18, 2010
By Loren Woirhaye
"Direct Response copywriting and internet consultant"
I have a couple of $100-plus guitar pre-amps I use when
playing my flamenco guitar through an amplifier. For
that use, they work fine.
For recording to a desktop recording software however
the sound from my pre-amps just wasn't very good. In
fact, it sucked. I use a pickup-the-world film transducer -
which is an uncommon pickup but it sounds EXACTLY like
the guitar, picking up string-squeak, body taps (golpes)
and syllabant sounds inherent to the nylon-string guitar
but lost when using piezo pickups.
If you want a sound exactly like a microphone, use a
mic - but if you want something close out of a pickup,
give this a try.
I'm overjoyed at how full, balanced and rounded this
little box sounds. It is way sturdier than I expected
for the price. The plastic casing is so hefty you'd
think it was die-cast metal if it were colder to the
touch.
This is a stomp box, and built accordingly. The stomp
button is sturdy and separated adequately from the
rest of the controls, which have a stiffness to them
that will help them retain their settings when you
take it places. The printing which identifies the
controls is in poor-contrast and I have to pick up
the box and hold it close to my face to read the
labels. A minor gripe.
The sound of this little dream box allows me to plug
my guitar into it, then into my Firewire box and
get a good, usable signal. I have no onboard pre-amp
like a Fishman, only a jack because I prefer the external
battery and pre-amp approach for my hand-made (by me)
guitars.
I have only used a flamenco guitar through this box
so I cannot say if it sounds good with a steel string
acoustic. For the price, the sound is amazing. It
makes the signal richer, fatter, and sounds a lot
like a mic'd guitar.

 Great for piezo pickups Apr 22, 2010
By StanOfSac
"StanOfSac"
I have a 40-year-old Epiphone Texan acoustic guitar that has a great sound -- until I use the old piezo pickup, which always ends up sounding tinny and thin without a pre-amp. The choice is an expensive active pickup with a clean pre-amp, or something with analog emulation that also serves as a DI box. For under $30, the ADI121 is tough to beat. It emulates a tube-driven microphone, so it has a smooth analog sound versus a pristine (and unforgiving) digital sound. It made a huge difference when I play solo, removing the harsh piezo sounds.
Bottom line: This gives you an active pre-amp that significantly improves the sound of piezo pickups, and still gives you the XLR out to plug directly into your board.
For the money, it's tough to beat.

ADI21 does what it's supposed to do. Nov 29, 2009
By J. Bryan
May not be the best, but for the price it works as an acoustic equalizer and DI box. Sounds good through an amp or sound system. Has a slight hiss, so recording may be a problem. I didn't try to adjust out the hiss, but it may be possible.

Great EQ for Mag Pickups Nov 19, 2009
By Robert C. Burnett
I have a Taylor GA4 with a Fishman Rare Earth Humbucker in the soundhole which has volume but no tone controls. I was lacking bass response through the church PA (Mackie board). I tried raising (shimming) the pickup on the bass string side, but it was way too sensitive to control without losing overall string balance. The sweepable midrange and treble and bass EQ on this unit allows me to more accurately translate that beautiful Taylor tone through the PA. The XLR out is great too...solid and quiet. I also have a 200 dollar Fishman Aura pedal with 16 very nice microphonic tone presets and it is great if your pickup has tone controls...I still use it for my Fishman Classic IV equipped guitar. But this pedal is the most affordable DI with sweepable mid that you will find anywhere and it works. Way to go Behringer!

Great acoustic preamp Feb 04, 2011
By J. Mciver
Use with my Epiphone Masterbilt with K&K Pure Western Mini pickup.
It sounds like my actual guitar through a PA. Also sounds great from the unbalanced out straight into my MacBook Pro/Garageband.
Can't beat the sound for under $30.
