Suggestion for DI mini pedal?
I'd like to add a DI to my acoustic board for when I don't use an amp, not enough room for the standard Baggs Para DI...are these things any good? Or what?

There actually seem to be quite a few pedals with identical form factor and switch layout, so there may be only one actual manufacturer...

A little spendy but the Fire Eye Red Eye is the best I’ve found for use with multiple acoustic instruments.

Sounds like a good one, but is not "mini". The one I posted as an example is $70...the typical determining factor for "mini" is not having a battery, and I intend to use a power supply, so I don't need that extra space...

If you like this model, they're all the same pedal with different OEM labels. Mooer Micro DI, Rowin LEF-331, Xvive V13 Mini DI, OnStage DB200, Donner Mini DI, and more brands, all the same. The cheapest one of these is Harley Benton's MiniStomp Magnum DI at $20, and you can find those reviewed on YouTube. But that one's only available from Thomann in Germany, and imports are unpredictable these days, to put it mildly.
