Acoustic Guitar DI with Saturation and Compression EQ
Inspired by the LR Baggs Handcrafted Video Sessions and our experience in some 
of Nashville’s great studios, the Session Acoustic DI brings our signature studio 
sound to your live rig. The Session DI enhances your acoustic pickup and imparts 
the rich sonic character that you’d expect from an experienced audio engineer 
using some of the world’s finest studio gear. We’ve captured this studio magic 
and put it into a compact, easy-to-use DI that will transform your live sound. 

ANALOG SATURATION
Often used by studio engineers in post-production, saturation adds warmth, dimension, 
and pleasing harmonics while smoothing the signal for an enhanced mix. The Session 
DI’s proprietary saturation is voiced specifically for the acoustic guitar and transports 
studio analog warmth and inspiring playability to the stage

COMPRESSION EQ
Unlike standard compression that can squash the entire range of your signal, 
the Session DI’s Comp EQ features 3 narrowly focused bands of compression 
that tame common problematic frequencies and uncover the voice of your guitar. 
The low, mid, and high frequency compressors are essentially “touch-sensitive” 
EQs that respond in real-time to your dynamics. The harder you strum, the more 
they compress and vice versa.
