NATHAN EAST SIGNATURE PREAMPLIFIER — The DB-EAST-PRE is a compact, portable Digbeth bass preamplifier developed for Nathan East, delivering his powerful ‘BIG RIG’ DB-EAST sound in a convenient pedal-sized format.

SWITCHABLE FET & TUBE INPUT STAGES — Features switchable and blendable FET and TUBE input stages, giving bass players the flexibility to combine different preamp characteristics and create a wide range of tones.

SELECTABLE TUBE GAIN & RANGE CONTROL — The tube channel includes selectable gain characteristics along with a dedicated RANGE control that adjusts the level of low-end signal before distortion, helping tighten and control distorted low frequencies.

POWERFUL 3-BAND EQ & TONE SHAPING — Equipped with a powerful 3-band EQ featuring selectable mid PRE-SHAPES, plus the versatile TILT function for further tonal shaping and a dedicated MASTER VOLUME for overall output control.

LA·IR EQUIPPED DI OUTPUTS — The DB-EAST-PRE features LA·IR equipped DI outputs, with each input routed through the preamp to its own dedicated DI output. The LA·IR app includes high-quality IRs of Nathan East’s preferred DBV212 and DBV410 cabinets.

AUTOMATIC CABINET IR SWITCHING — The cabinet IR used by the DI output switches automatically when changing between the DB-EAST-PRE’s inputs, providing a flexible setup for bass players using multiple instruments.
