Art Pro Audio dPDB Dual-Channel Passive Direct Box

Before you settle for any ordinary direct box, consider the dPDB Dual-Channel Passive Direct Box, a high-quality, professional-grade audio tool that combines two superior direct boxes into one compact, portable unit. This versatile device is a robust, road-ready solution for connecting the outputs of electronic musical instruments or other audio sources to the balanced inputs of mixer consoles and other balanced inputs.

The dPDB Dual-Channel Passive Direct Box is not just a connection point; it's a gateway to enhanced audio performance. It offers switchable Input Attenuation (0 dB, -20dB, -40dB), a 50k ohm Instrument Input, a 50k ohm Parallel Link jack, and a 600 ohm XLR Output Jack. It also features a switchable Ground Lift, ensuring that your audio signal remains clean and clear, free from any ground loop interference.

One of the standout features of the dPDB Dual-Channel Passive Direct Box is its ability to excel at impedance matching. This means it can seamlessly convert the high-impedance signals from electric guitars or bass guitars into low-impedance balanced signals required by mixing consoles. This ensures that your audio signal remains strong and undistorted, regardless of the distance it needs to travel.

The dPDB Dual-Channel Passive Direct Box is also an excellent solution for keyboards and line level signals. It automatically balances and matches the line level outputs of modern electronic keyboards, making it an ideal choice for musicians using a multiple keyboard setup.

DJ console output signals can also benefit from the dPDB's capabilities. It can convert an unbalanced -10dB signal from DJ mixers to a balanced line level signal before it reaches the console, providing a convenient method of connector transition with the capability to run long cables.

The dPDB's ability to accept speaker level inputs from a power amplifier's output allows post-amplifier, post eq and effects signals to be fed directly to the console. This means you can send a particular effect or amplifier sound directly to the mix, giving you more control over your audio output.

Encased in a rugged steel chassis, the dPDB Dual-Channel Passive Direct Box is designed and manufactured to the highest standards, promising years of quiet, reliable performance. Whether you're a professional musician, an audio engineer, or a DJ, the dPDB Dual-Channel Passive Direct Box is a must-have addition to your audio toolkit.
