Forlì, Italy – November 13, 2019 – With XT-B Bass Profiler by SIM1, a bass player has the opportunity to unlimited basses with one pedal. It is not midi, and it is not sampling: it is an innovative technology never seen before which SIM1 calls Smart Tone Shaping (STS – patented technology), and it makes the XT-B capable of learning or profiling the sound characteristics of a bass and modeling it to perfectly reproduce the sound of any other bass guitars, with no latency or digital artifacts. A musician can choose his favorite bass profile among the presets included in the device – for example a Fender Jazz 64, double bass or Höfner 500 violin, or choose from a variety of iconic bass profiles by connecting a smartphone or tablet wirelessly to the XT-B via wi-fi (adapter included) and downloading the free SIM1 App. A bassist with the XT-B no longer needs to travel with more than one instrument.
Priced at $699, the XT-B is the bass guitar’s answer to the XT-1 Guitar Profiler, awarded Best in NAMM 2018 in the category Add-On or Accessory, which allows guitarists to perfectly reproduce the sound of any other electric or acoustic guitars – such as a Telecaster 1964, a Gibson SG 1973 or a Music Man Axis.
