BackBeat G2
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.
BackBeat G2 is a wearable tactile transducer — the lightest, most responsive haptic feedback tool for bassists. It recreates the feel of an amp against your back, delivering a powerful thump for every note, with no added stage volume. Clip it to your strap, plug in your bass, and the low end you've been missing is right there with you — IEMs and all.
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 — bass plus kick — through the aux input to lock in tighter with your drummer. Clear, defined response all the way down to a low B.
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. The internal 18650 battery runs 3–5 hours per charge and tops up over a standard USB-C cable. A 1/4" mono instrument input plus 1/8" stereo aux input, headphone output, and a signal-through jack let you mix inputs and outputs independently and still run your amp or pedalboard. Bluetooth app control lets you adjust on the fly.
It's the missing half of an in-ear rig.

FAQs

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