Darkglass Electronics Tone Capsule On-Board Active Bass Preamp Circuit With Bass and Dual Frequency Mid Controls

A newer, more unusual take on onboard preamplifiers, the Tone Capsule from Darkglass Electronics is designed to respect your instrument’s natural character while exponentially expanding tonal possibilities. An onboard bass preamp that's unique in that it doesn’t have a Treble control. The idea comes from Sheldon Dingwall: he thought that making a Bass-Mid-Treble was too normal for his liking because everyone does it that way, so he suggested including a second mid control instead. So Darkglass ran with the idea – especially because the second control was configurable to operate at the higher end of the spectrum and provide all the benefits a standard Treble control (increased clarity and definition when boosting) but with operation that's more natural, less-harsh and noiseless. Try it out for yourself and discover a whole new universe of sonic possibilities.
