ART xDirect
An active mono DI-Box with a 1/4" instrument jack input, XLR input, low-impedance XLR output, and direct 1/4" jack output. The DI-Box is also equipped with a high-pass filter, signal attenuator: -20dB/-40dB, phase switch, and ground lift. The xDirect can be powered by a 9V battery or via phantom power from a mixer. When powered by a battery, it has very low power consumption, allowing it to operate for over 100 hours. All of this is housed in a durable aluminum enclosure, ensuring longevity and reliable operation.
DI-Boxes are devices used in pro-audio systems, primarily for signal balancing. Thanks to balancing, the signal becomes up to 90% more resistant to interference, allowing it to be transmitted over long distances. But that's not all. Another very useful function is the separation of input and output signals. In practice, this helps prevent the formation of ground loops.
These small devices, long used by professionals, are gaining increasing popularity and interest among those just starting their journey in music, whether on stage or in the studio.
