Description

A choice of Passive (-0dB) or Active (-6dB) inputs takes your bass to the DB400’s dual input stages. Here, a combination of tube and solid-state preamp circuitry provides the crisp definition of FET-driven solid-state performance with its pristine clarity, perfect for funk & pop styles, while a simple touch of a button switches you to a warm, responsive tube circuit, – ideal for R&B, rock, blues and country. It’s virtually like having two different amplifiers in one box.

A five-band EQ with semi-parametric mid and Scoop Control ensures you can always find any tone quickly and easily. The Scoop Control sweeps from a flat frequency response through a mid-frequency dip at 400Hz, boosting both the top and bottom end as the control moves beyond the halfway point. This simple and effective tone-shaping tool makes it easy to hit that perfect sweet spot in your sound onstage or in the studio.

A Footswitchable Distortion with tunable drive can be precisely added in parallel to the core clean bass tone with the Wet/Dry Distortion Mix control. Used in conjunction with this feature or as a clean-signal additive, the Compression can be tuned in to sustain notes while a button-selectable Limiter circuit ensures that the 400-Watt output stage is never over-driven.

A front panel Mute button lets you interrupt the signal to both the speaker and Line output for silent tuning via the 1/4-inch Tuner Out jack. A footswitchable Effects Return with its own Effects level control and a Pre/Post-EQ selectable XLR balanced Line output with Ground Lift to defeat loop hum ensure optimum flexibility.

The speaker system includes an 800-Watt 15-inch bass driver and high-efficiency piezo tweeter with an Active/Defeat switch. Built in Canada and designed for maximum roadability, the DynaBass 400’s construction includes rugged 11-ply birch cabinetry, an all-metal chassis and a heavy gauge perforated metal grille to protect the speaker components.
