NUX Melvin Lee Davis Bass Preamp + DI

Designed by Bassist for Bass Lovers

We collaborated with American bass player Melvin Lee Davis to create MLD Bass Preamp & DI.

"Melvin Lee Davis is an American bass player, vocalist, keyboard player, producer, TV composer and

engineer based in Orange County, California. He is the music director for Grammy-award winning artist

Chaka Khan and has recorded with The Pointer Sisters, Lee Ritenour, Bryan Ferry, Patti Austin and

Gladys Knight & the Pips."

MLD Bass Preamp + DI has tons of functions based on Melvin Lee Davis' musical experience. And offers the best sound-shaping controls such as: 3-band EQ with middle-frequency selection, drive with blend control, speaker cabinet simulation (Impulse Response loader) and built-in noise reduction with Decay and Threshold controls.

MLD signature Bass Preamp + DI features fully sweepable mid-range frequencies in addition to Bass and Treble controls. Melvin L. Davis is proficient at 4, 5, 6 and 7 string basses, so MLD Bass Preamp has a wide range of frequency control.

Volume Knob

Adjusts the overall output volume of the pedal. Ideal for fine-tuning the output on clean tone, it also controls the DI output volume.

Blend Knob

Adjusts to blend between the clean signal and overdrive signal. The clean signal remains as unity gain, allowing for fine control of the blend ration.

Drive Knob

Adjusts the Gain level and sets the saturation level in the overdriven signal.
