Every Acoustic Player Needs One

Don't perform without the Venue DI! This compact pedal solves the big problems all acoustic guitarists face, and at great value too. Just plug your acoustic guitar into the Venue DI and it'll get your signal ready to be plugged into the mixer, preserving that natural sound of your guitar for the whole audience to hear. More than that, you can use the onboard 5-band EQ to tune your sound so it fits in nicely with the other instruments onstage, or doesn't compete with your lead vocals. You'll also love the built-in tuner for quick tune ups in between songs. There's more to know about the Venue DI, though.

We've all been there — you're playing a tune, the vibe of the song kicks into the next gear, and you wish you could "turn up" your guitar sound really quickly. With the Venue DI, you can definitely do it. There's a boost footswitch, so it'll take just one tap to get the guitar sound where you want it. You can also adjust the boost ahead of time, so the "oomph" it gives you is perfect. You'll also be glad to hear that the Venue DI is fully prepared to help you fight potential problems with feedback — squealing noise won't ruin your set! Onboard, there's a Garret Null notch filter that helps you kill feedback. Another protective measure is the phase inversion switch.

When you're taking your acoustic guitar to the stage, you want to perform with confidence. You want control over your sound, you want to stay in tune, and you want to make sure feedback never gets in the way of your sound. LR Baggs helps you do all of these things with the handy Venue DI. A carrying case even comes with it!

  • 3-in-one system for performing acoustic guitarists
  • Features adjustable gain for both passive and active pickups
  • Onboard tuner features a footswitch mute/tune function

Incredible DI, Great Boost, Ok Tuner

Music Background:
Since I didn't buy this di specifically for the tuner, I won't count that against it. I wanted a di that sounded as good as my lr baggs para di, CHECK. I wantd a di that had a great boost feature, CHE... read more [+]CK. It does amazing at both of those main tasks. The eq sounds phenomenal just like the para di. The tuner is very annoying to use. Even thought its accurate, it's slow and annoying live. Also sometimes, it doesn't even show up at all, and I have to unplug it just to get it to recognize the tuner. However, it's amazing at the rest of the things it's used for, and that's why I love it. close [-]

A Must-Have for Acoustic Guitarists!

I recently purchased this DI Pedal and have been thoroughly impressed. The sound is true L.R. Baggs quality; it sound crystal clear and the EQ functions perfectly.

I have had several comparable acoustic guitar preamp pedals such as the BBE Acoustimax and this blows them all away. You can't go wrong with L.R. Baggs! close [-]

L R Baggs Venue DI is Awesome! I love being able to use the boost when I go from strumming to finger picking. So far, the battery life has been great, which was kind of a surprise.
