General

Electro Harmonix' Battalion is a compact and versatile preamp and DI box in pedal form for bass guitarists. Among its features are a 4-band EQ, a MOSFET distortion section, a compressor and a noise gate. The EQ, that's tailored specifically for bass guitar, can be placed before or after the effects and removed from the chain entirely using the dedicated switch. The distortion can be combined with the clean signal ensuring you don't lose any low end from your sound. The MOSTFET distortion can be accurately adjusted using the volume, drive and tone controls.

The sound you want

The Battalion's noise gate is highly effective and means you get a great tone without any unwanted noise no matter what the rest of the settings are. There's also a built-in compressor to give you a better-balanced sound all round. If you play an active bass guitar, you may want to make use of the -10 dB button before you begin. In short, the Electro Harmonix Battalion gives you everything you need to get an outstanding tone out of your bass guitar.

Electro Harmonix Battalion preamp & DI box

Wrote the following about Electro Harmonix Battalion preamp & DI box
Verrassend fijn en goed klinkend pedaal! De equalizer is ruimschoots in te stellen naar wens en de distortion is er mooi in te blenden. Over de sound van de distortion ben ik minder enthousiast, daar had ik toon-technisch wel wat meer uit willen halen. De compressor doet netjes zijn werk en de noisegate schakelt wat laat in. Maar al met al zeer bruikbaar en het belangrijkste de sound is top! Op het podium heb ik echt een betere sound. Erg blij met dit pedaal!

Wrote the following about Electro Harmonix Battalion preamp & DI box
Le Battalion offre une très large palette de sons, avec son canal clair et son canal distorsion. Les possibilités de chaînage de ce canal distorsion, sont vraiment intéressantes: avant ou après égalisation ou fonctionnement en parallèle avec le canal clean. De plus, le potentiomètre de mélange des deux canaux (blend) offre une maîtrise totale sur le son, même pour quelqu'un comme moi, qui a la base ne suis pas spécialement porté sur le sujet.

Mes intérêts personnels quant à ce préampli :

1) Entrée très haute impédance : 2,2 MOhms, ce qui peut le rendre intéressant pour une utilisation ponctuelle avec une contrebasse équipée d'un capteur piezzo. Mais je l'ai essayé avec une basse type PJ 5 cordes; on a vraiment le respect du timbre de la basse.
2) Des filtres graves et aigus de type passe-bas (en dessous de 200Hz) et coupe-haut (au dessus de 2KHz), ce qui est à mon sens un vrai atout.

Le petit coup de cœur que l'on ne trouve chez les marques concurrentes : le potentiomètre de gain pour la sortie xlr.

Le point négatif pour moi:

Cette pédale est faite à la fois pour la scène et le studio et je dirais que dans ce dernier contexte, avoir deux interrupteurs au pieds d'une telle dureté, fait que l'activation de ces fonctions va tout de suite vous faire remarquer tellement le bruit mécanique engendré est fort...

Donc ma note générale serait plutôt de 4,5/5 à cause de ce dernier point.

Dit pedaal is wat mij betreft het geld dubbel en dwars waard. Als je op veel verschillende plekken speelt en geen versterker met je mee wil zeulen, maar wel een goede sound wil hebben, is dit pedaal een goede optie. De DI-output biedt de mogelijkheid om je bassignaal direct naar de PA te leiden. Daarnaast is de 'blend'-optie bij de distortion erg prettig. Hierdoor kan je een vleugje distortion toevoegen, zodat je sound een tikkeltje overdrive bevat, maar niet alle aandacht wegtrekt bij de andere muzikanten van de band.
