A Reliable DI Designed to Integrate Into Your Setup
Designed to preserve signal fidelity, this active direct box easily fits between instruments and mixing console. Its silver-blue metal construction ensures excellent shock resistance, while the protective corners safeguard the unit during frequent transport and setups.
Who Is It For and What Are Its Uses?
Ideal for bassists, keyboardists, and acoustic guitarists equipped with preamps, it converts your unbalanced signals into balanced signals for long cable runs without noise interference. Both live and in the studio, the "Link out" allows you to feed a stage amplifier while sending a clean signal to the mixing desk.
Key Features for Daily Use
The ground lift switch helps eliminate ground loops. The dual 6.35mm Jack/XLR inputs and balanced XLR output facilitate integration into any audio environment. Switching to phantom power automatically turns off the battery indicator to extend battery life, and the input range up to +10/+30 dBu effortlessly handles high-level sources.
