Inheriting the signal path of the larger FELiX and AliX models, the BiX offers the same crystal-clear, low-noise sound in a streamlined, pedalboard-friendly format ready for both an intimate gig and a large stage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eFaithful acoustic instrument sound\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA typical preamp in an acoustic guitar often sounds thin and piezo-like once plugged into a PA. The BiX runs on an internal voltage above 30 V, providing huge dynamic headroom and natural, open highs with a strong, tight bass. The 10 MΩ instrument input impedance does not load down piezo pickups, so the dynamics and character of the instrument are preserved and the signal reaches the stage with realism close to miking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eA complete signal path on stage and in the studio\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlaying live, a musician needs EQ, a solo boost and a clean signal to FOH without carrying a rack. The BiX integrates this into one pedal: a High and Low shelving EQ with DIP switches selecting two transition frequencies, a variable boost up to 10 dB and Mute and Boost footswitches. An FX loop with separate send and return jacks, an unbalanced line output to a stage monitor and a transformer balanced ISO DI output on XLR cover both stage and session needs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKEY FEATURES\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStudio-quality preamp, EQ and DI for acoustic instruments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSignal path from the FELiX and AliX models\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMute and Boost footswitches with variable boost up to 10 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh and Low shelving EQ with two transition frequencies\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFX loop with separate send and return jacks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransformer balanced ISO DI output on XLR\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUnbalanced line output for amps and monitors\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInternal voltage above 30 V for large dynamic headroom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact 9 V DC powered chassis, pedalboard friendly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManufacturer: Grace Design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: single-channel preamp \/ EQ \/ DI \/ boost for acoustic instruments\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain range: line output 0 dB to +37 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBoost: 0 dB to +12 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEQ: High and Low, range +\/-15 dB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEQ frequencies: Low 100\/200 Hz, High 2\/4 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTHD+N: below 0.005% at 36 dB gain\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFrequency response (Line): 10 Hz to 185 kHz\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInstrument input impedance: 10 MΩ\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDynamic range: 129 dB (Line and DI, minimum gain)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePower: 9 V DC, 2.1 mm center negative jack, approx. 150 mA draw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInput voltage range: 6 V to 12 V DC\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eChassis: aluminium and steel, low-profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Grace Design","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54099997360465,"sku":"29826","price":380.14,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/8741\/0769\/files\/GraceDesignBiXAcousticInstrumentPreamplifier1.webp?v=1782212873","url":"https:\/\/wrdtunes.com\/en-fr\/products\/grace-design-bix-acoustic-instrument-preamplifier","provider":"Wired Tunes","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
