Developed in collaboration with bassist Ian Martin Allison, Mantle delivers studio-quality tone shaping ready for both live performance and recording environments. At its core are Walrus Audio’s custom “Sapphire Transformers,” offering a rich, Neve-inspired low-mid response combined with the clarity and punch reminiscent of classic API preamps.

With its musical EQ and intuitive gain structure, Mantle is highly versatile and easy to dial in. As a DI, it provides a reliable, high-quality signal output, making it a powerful centerpiece for any bass rig. Preserving the natural character of your instrument while enhancing harmonic depth, Mantle is built to meet the demands of modern bassists in any setting.
