All demos feature passive basses. How does this unit behave with an active bass?

I haven't used it with an active bass, but it is awesome with a passive. I would think that it works and sounds great with the active bass as well. Very cool product for a great price.

Is the "DirtyQ" an overdrive? ie a distortion channel? Or something else.

No, it's not a "channel"… The DIRTY Q module is an envelope filter with some interesting tricks. Tweak the knobs onboard until you find the vocal tone that suits your playing style.

I see that it comes with its own power cord, how does it do with dirty power? I would use it in an older wired church that has given humm on pedals.

never had an issue with it - it even comes with a ground lift switch

Just curious if this can also be used for guitar, ie not just bass?

It is just for bass If you need our guitar version, please check this one: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07SSYM8CF
