Oh sorry didn't see that...
 

Right.  This calls for double-check since I wired that a few years
ago ;-)  Turns out the mic goes directly in the 10101LT and the DI box
is used for the acoustic bass guitar built-in pick-up output.  The kind
of pick-up with bass, treble, mid controls, powered with a 9v battery.
Sorry for the misleading description I gave previously ;-)

OK in that case I would check the sound without the DI plugged in.
On most recordings that I did with acoustic bass and/or double bass I didn't use the pickup because the sound is not as full as that from the mic.
Also you have to play with the mic and source position because when recording low frequency sources (i.e. bass) room modes have a great impact on the sound.
You can have a great mic and place it in a dip where you don't get certain frequencies. This is even more relevant when recording in a small room.

Hope that helps.

Best regards,
Moshe
