For the past several years I've catered largely to bassists, since they tend to be largely underserved in the pedal world. One thing that pretty much every bassist needs is a good sounding D.I., because nobody is going to bring their 8x10 stack to a bar gig for $50. Nobelium is still hands down my best selling project, but it's big and expensive, and is a big jump for someone that wants a tube D.I. but has never dabbled in tube projects before.
So with that in mind, I designed Steddi, Go! It's my answer to the question "what's the simplest, great sounding tube D.I. you can make?" It uses a single 12AX7, has a single knob (volume), and fits in a 1590BBS. I couldn't decide whether the 1/4" output should be a parallel passthrough to feed an amp, IEM, onstage monitor, etc. or if it should be a tap from the tube's output. So I put pads on the board for both, and you can install a jumper for whichever you want to use. Or if you're creative you can probably find room for an SPDT toggle to have both options available.
I have a prototype built up and will get final boards in soon, then I'll get documentation together and make these available.
EDIT: now that I'm looking at it, I kind of want to add a 1/4" source select toggle onto the board. Good thing I haven't placed the order yet.
