V-TONE GUITAR DRIVER DI GDI21

Our authentic V-TONE modelling technology recreates three of the most sought-after classic guitar amps, with three gain modes and three mic placements for a total of 27 possible configurations. You get a truckload of great amps in one convenient stomp box, allowing you to go from clean or crunch to super-fat distortion in a flash.

Extremely User-Friendly

Operation is simple; just choose the type of amp, from the smooth Calif (Californian), the bright, punchy Twed ( Tweed), or the Brit (British) with its incredible sustain and aggressive mids. Then select the gain mode, Cln (clean), Hot or Hi G (high gain). Lastly, choose the mic placement from the three available selections. This feature is a BEHRINGER exclusive, allowing you to place the “virtual mic” in any of three positions: (OFF X)—At the edge of the speaker cone, producing a smoother, softer sound with less midrange content (CNTR)—Positioned at the centre of the cone, for more upper mids and beefy low-end (CLSIC)—Slightly in front of the cabinet, for high midrange content with tons of definition

It’s a Tone Thing

We’ve also included a dedicated Drive control, for adjusting the amount of gain. This control effectively mimics the amount of push applied to the output stage of a tube amplifier, from a gentle nudge to full-out, tube-melting overdrive. Further tone shaping is provided by a highly musical 2-band EQ.

Versatility

The GDI21 can be used for direct recording output, with speaker simulation or, when used in bypass mode, as a superb active DI box. A 1⁄4" output jack is provided for connecting to your amp and the gold-plated, balanced XLR connector will link you cleanly to the front of house console. Ground loop problems are nonexistent, thanks to the onboard ground lift switch.

Sound Value

Whether you use it on the stage or for recording, the V-Tone Guitar GDI21 is the ultimate choice for musicians seeking an extremely versatile array of time-tested, classic tones. With the GDI21, you get the sound of three classic guitar amps and a superb DI box, all for the price of a single stomp box! Try one at your local BEHRINGER dealer or order online today.

Trusted Customer30th Apr 2022

Behringer has become an unavoidable part of every musician's kit over the years. Don't get the low price fool you. They are absolutely first class and the GDI21 is no exception. This pedal works and sounds the same as their other tube amp emulation pedal with the addition of a DI input, which is great for recording. The pedal feels solid and, believe it or not, is entirely analogue. I'm still to use it on a solid state amp to see what magic it can work but it completely transforms the sound of my tube amps. This is especially obvious on the clean setting. The sound is clearer, louder and the pedal adds spank and girth. The other settings give you several highly useable overdrive/distortion tones but nothing as spectacular as the clean setting, which really makes it sound like you're playing through a totally different amp.

Trio of amp models with increasing gain from "Tweed" to "British" to "California" (possibly Fender, Marshall, and Mesa Boogie?). Made of plastic, but feels super solid and robust. Really happy with both the clean and distorted tones.
