BackBeat G2 - Wearable Tactile Feedback for Bass

When the cabinets come off stage and you switch to in-ears, the notes are still there but the feel is gone. IEMs give you a clean mix. No rumble in your chest. BackBeat G2 puts it back. It's a wearable tactile transducer, sometimes called a bass shaker or a rumble pack.

Built for silent stages, ampless and IEM rigs, volume-restricted venues (church, theater, corporate), and headphone practice. Run your bass alone, or feed the full monitor mix through the aux input to lock in tighter with your drummer.

At roughly 11 oz it disappears on your strap and travels in a gig-bag pocket, ideal for fly dates and backline gigs where hauling a rig isn't an option.

It's the missing half of an in-ear rig.

What's in the box

The unit, a strap clip, a custom instrument cable, and a charging cable.

How it works

Clip to your strap → plug in your bass → power on, then dial in the intensity from the Bluetooth app. Works alongside your IEM rig with no added stage volume.

FAQs

It thumps at the exact frequency your bass puts out, so you feel pitch - not just a generic rumble. Many players pick out note definition through it, even with IEMs off.

A wearable tactile transducer that clips to your bass strap and converts your bass signal into physical vibration you feel through your body - the feel of an amp, with zero added stage volume.

Yes - that's exactly what it's built for. It restores the physical low end that IEMs and ampless rigs remove.

Plug your bass into the 1/4" input, or feed a monitor mix (bass + kick) through the 1/8" stereo aux input. A signal-through jack passes your signal to your amp or pedalboard; a headphone output covers silent practice.

3–5 hours per charge at full strength, longer at lower intensity. Charges over USB-C.

Bass is the primary use case, but any instrument or monitor feed with low-frequency content works - drummers and keys players use it too.
