Specifications
- Class A multichannel (eight) DI Output specs.
- Gain range : 30dB
- Frequency Response: 20Hz to 20Khz +/- 0.5dB
- Maximum Output: +26dBu @ 1Khz
- Noise: –90dB @ 22Hz to 22KHz
- Advantages: The Class A DI has a very high input impedance (10Mohm), without the use of FET’s. This means that the guitar pickups are not loaded as with a lower impedance input, and so allows every transient to be reproduced, making even a cheap guitar sound exceptional.
- Inputs: 1/4″ jack (TS) input on the front panel
- Inputs: 1/4″ jack (TS) through on the front panel
- Output configuration: Transformer isolated, main balanced output (D-sub wired to Tascam DA88 standard) on the rear panel
- Output configuration: Transformer isolated, monitor balanced output (D-sub wired to Tascam DA88 standard) on the rear panel that can be used in conjunction with main outputs.
- Fully compliant external 24v @ 1amp PSU with lockable connector
- Pad on every channel (15db) with illuminated switch
- Phase reverse on every channel with illuminated switch
- Earth ground lift on every channel with illuminated switch
