Eko BAIO XL
Immerse yourself in the ultimate sound universe with the Eko BAIO XL: a compact yet comprehensive amp modeler and multi-effects unit designed for demanding guitarists, bassists, and musicians on the go. Battery-powered, it combines power, portability, and versatility to unleash your creativity wherever you are.
Versatility and advanced modeling
The BAIO XL is much more than just a pedal: it features 20 amp models, 6 configurable effects slots (boost, compressor, noise gate, 3-band equalizer, modulation effects, delays, reverbs), and 20 IR CAB slots for accurate cabinet simulations. Thanks to these impulse responses (IR) co-developed with Drap Sound and guitarist Massimo Varini, you get authentic sound reproduction—perfect for electric, acoustic, classical, or bass guitar.
Ergonomics, connectivity, and mobility
Despite its many features, the BAIO XL remains extremely accessible: it has a color screen, two footswitches, and an intuitive user interface. It operates completely independently thanks to its rechargeable battery (up to 10 hours of battery life). In terms of connectivity, it offers a Bluetooth input, a headphone output, and a versatile USB-C port: battery charging or operation as an audio interface with a computer or smartphone. Record your ideas directly into your DAW or mobile app without the need for additional hardware.
