Thank you for purchasing our Venue D.I. This is the fi rst all-discrete acoustic guitar
preamp to combine a transformer-coupled D.I. output for maximum isolation, an EQ

We trust that you are going to enjoy and come to understand the full capability of this
new preamp as you use it. We have also included in this manual some tips on how to
get the most out of this product.
